Dr Pawan Kotwal said, “developing good discipline and values in children of this age is one of the most important jobs of parenthood but this vital task takes time, patience and understanding.”
Dr Chand Trehan said, “the child’s constant questions reflect another side of pre-school development-his intense curiosity and deep thrust for knowledge. One of the characteristics of the preschooler is his readiness to learn. He is ready and eager to learn as much as he can about the world around him, about himself as a part of that world, about other children and about adults. The pre-schooler is a curious child. He is open, and he is responsive,”
Principal of the school, Veena Aswal presented the vote of thanks. Centre Head, Bindu Mehra presented mementoes to the dignitaries.
