Chümoukedima, June 19 (MExN): To acknowledge and honour the students for their outstanding academic performance, Chümoukedima Town Students Union in collaboration with All Nagaland Private Schools Association (ANPSA) organised a felicitation programme for successful HSLC & HSSLC candidates on June 18.
Along with this, a career guidance seminar was also held at the Chümoukedima Town Hall under the theme ‘Building the Base.’
Chümoukedima Deputy Commissioner Abhinav Shivam, speaking as a resource person, congratulated the students for bringing laurels to the District. He said students are the future of tomorrow and they are the ones who can bring change to the society, while urging them to dream and follow their goals.
According to a DIPR report received on Sunday, he advised the students to make reading a habit or priority, as it can improve one's reactions, decision-making, and creative imagination. He further encouraged the students to maintain daily routines and also to include sports and hobbies.
Abhinav, through his personal experience, encouraged the students to put in consistent hard work and strong determination to excel and achieve their dreams. Stating that teachers play a pivotal role in the holistic development of the students, he also urged the teachers to enable students to see dreams and motivate them to achieve their dreams.
Manager, Training & Talent Management, YouthNet, Tsepila Zhimomi, speaking on the topic 'Higher Education & Career Choices', urged the students to keep their vision big and develop skills as per their interests. She said selecting purposeful goals and priorities has the power to put you on track and on time in the journey to success. She advised them to select their goals with careful thought and planning. Zhimomi mentioned that a career is all about finding out who a person is, what they are good at, and what is stopping them from achieving their goals.
President, CTSU congratulated the students and encouraged them to continue their consistency and hard work as it is the only way to success. He appealed to them to never give up on their dreams and always stay on the track no matter what the situation or wherever they may go. He thanked the teachers for their guidance and support for which the results have been a success.
He further informed that in remembrance of Lt Kuosalhou Shuya, Head GB, Chümoukedima, a cash prize is to be given every year to the highest scorer in HSLC. He thanked DC, Chümoukedima, and his wife for sponsoring a meritorious girl of class 11 from North Town Higher Secondary School.
