Reading
is an act of contemplation, perhaps the only act in which we allow ourselves to
merge with the consciousness of another human being. Witty International
School, Pawan Baug, encouraged the passion for reading and writing amongst the
young enthusiasts of Grade VII by inviting the prominent author Mr Christopher
Doyle.
We
possess the books we read, animating the waiting stillness of their language, but
they possess us also, filling us with thoughts and observations, asking us to
make them part of ourselves. But in present times we are becoming a society of
people who rarely allow ourselves to slow down enough to think and contemplate
hence it is becoming difficult to spend time reading a book.
Christopher
Doyle, the famous author of the Mahabharata series, transported the students into
a fascinating world where ancient secrets buried in legends blend with science
and history created a gripping story. During
the interactive session, the author patiently addressed the queries of the
young minds and guided them with insights to improve their reading and writing
skills.
Commenting
on this initiative, Principal Mr Bijo Kurian said, “At Witty International, we
believe, regular reading enriches vocabulary, helps brain development, enhances
concentration, increases knowledge along with various other benefits. Such
interactive sessions with renowned authors make reading an enjoyable journey
for our students, while also allowing them to gain insights directly from the
experts.”
