“May every step be blessed, and every dream take flight.”
Every new year begins with a sunrise — soft, expectant, and full of promise.
At Gospel International School, that sunrise carries a name: Aashirwaad — a sacred moment of blessing, hope, and new beginnings.
As the gates opened to welcome another academic year, the air was alive with anticipation — shoes freshly polished, hearts quietly fluttering, and corridors echoing once again with the laughter of returning friends. The morning sunlight touched the school courtyard where teachers, students, and parents gathered — not just to commence a term, but to celebrate a journey.
The Aashirwaad 2025 ceremony began in an atmosphere of reverence and joy.
Prayers of gratitude rose like incense — for the year that had passed and for the one about to unfold. The school choir lifted their voices in melody, blessing each heart that stood ready to learn, to grow, to dream.
The ceremony was graced by the presence of the school’s management team —
Chairman, Mr. Winfred Joshua; Secretary, Rev. Joel Surendra; Manager, Dr. Anupama Caroline; Academic Coordinator, Mrs. Florence Sheeba; and Principal, Mrs. Lavena Nevil.
Mr. Winfred Joshua inspired students to see challenges not as obstacles but as stepping stones to greatness, emphasizing the importance of discipline. Mrs. Florence Sheeba, in her warm and engaging manner, invited students to actively participate in shaping their own journeys. She urged them not to wait for the perfect moment to begin, but to embrace imperfection, to take that first small step with courage and consistency. She reminded them that true growth blooms through effort, not ease — through learning, failing, and rising again with renewed strength. Her words also carried a deeper message: that faith and gratitude are the twin lights that guide every goal — faith to keep going when it’s hard, and gratitude to keep the heart humble when success comes. And Rev. Joel Surendra addressed the faculty members, encouraging them to take up a renewed stance in their endeavour to better the lives of the young students. Their success with the previous academic batch was appreciated, and together they would look forward to a bright future ahead.
The message of Aashirwaad 2025 was simple yet powerful:
Let your dreams be your direction. Let discipline be your strength. Let determination be your song.
As the students pledged to pursue their studies with diligence and honesty, a quiet fire seemed to kindle in their eyes — a collective resolve to make this year a chapter worth remembering.
Among the familiar faces were new ones — teachers whose presence added fresh energy and new perspectives to the Gospel International family. Their introductions were met with applause and smiles, symbolizing not just addition, but expansion — of vision, experience, and love.
The students walked to their rooms with renewed excitement, hearts light yet resolute, eyes gleaming with the courage to write a new story. The walls of Gospel International School seemed to hum softly — with the promise of laughter, of learning, of lives unfolding beautifully under the grace of Aashirwaad 2025.
For every year begins the same way — with a prayer, a plan, and a possibility. And here, within these halls, that possibility always grows into something extraordinary.
