The Governor Baby Rani Maurya said that the education should inculcate national values, culture and ethos. She was addressing the bicentenary celebrations of Convent of Jesus and Marry school as the chief guest on Friday.  She said the future of the nation is sculpted in schools and a lot depends on the type of education being imparted there.

The Governor also highlighted the need for the schools to continuously update their curriculum in accordance with the changing times. Advising the girl students to develop the quality of picking up useful, correct and knowledge- enhancing materials from internet, she said that they should also read books.

She said good books are one’s best friends and help in building character. Emphasising on the girl education, the Governor said that the whole society would become educated if every girl is educated. Explaining the importance of sanitation, she said that it is necessary for mental, physical and intellectual health.

As part of the bicentenary programme, the school is organising a mega show titled ‘Claudine’.
