Arpana Success Stories: Molarbund
Ankit
My name is Ankit. I study in class 7. I love to read and write. I started my Journey in Arpana Trust when I was in ‘Bal Vatika’ (pre – school). I was very excited when my mother got my admission. I use to play with toys, enjoy swings and also learnt different subjects in a fun filled way. I also remember the tasty meals which were served to us every day.
All the teachers of balvatika were very supportive. I learnt how to read words and small sentences. The foundation laid at Balvatika helped me to acquire knowledge in Hindi and English.
After completion of Balvatika, I entered Arpana’s tuition support classes. Here, I got chance to attend computer classes and access library which has a collection of more than 8,000 books.
I will describe Arpana as an ‘Ocean of Knowledge’ as, apart from helping us in studies there are other interesting and beneficial activities which are conducted in regular intervals. To mention here ‘Life skills’ sessions have really helped us to gain important information and made us aware of different issues that we might face in our life. Different strategies on how to cope with such issues were also explained in details.
When I was in class 3, I lost my father and i was very upset. At that time, Arpana Trust supported me emotionally and financially. I receive monthly ration and clothes from the centre. My sister also studied from Arpana she also got scholarship to pursue higher education. In class 4th my annual exam result was not very good. Agarwal madam told me to keep up my good score and promised to help me in my future endeavour. Her words have really encouraged me to come out of my difficult times. In class 5th, I did lot of hard work and stood first in class 5th. I continued my hard work and with support from the dedicated teachers like Samreen madam, Rupali madam, Ruchi madam, Somna madam and Nanak Sir I stood first in class 6th also.
Agarwal madam gives us good advice. Nabaneeta and Shaheen madam also work hard to ensure that each child coming to Arpana Trust develops his full potential and does well in life.
I will always work hard and try to maintain good academic score. I am very grateful to all the teachers of Arpana Trust who have always supported me. I want to be a good human being and dream of becoming an astronaut one day.
