Mangaluru, July 14: Hikmah International Academy, a Montessori School in Mangaluru celebrated the annual Van Mahotsav recently at their school premises in Vas Lane.

K. Bhasker Moily, Mayor of Mangaluru City Corporation, graced the occasion as chief guest. A K Niyaz, Managing Director, A K Group of Industries was guest of honor. 

The chairman of the Hikmah Educational Trust Mohammed Nissar, the Trustees, Chief Admin Officer, Principal, teaching and non-teaching staff and more than 50 kids from MONT-1, MONT-2 & MONT-3 participated in planting many neem saplings at the adjacent area near to the school premises.  

The event slogan was ‘Think Green and Live Green’ to motivate the kids to know how important trees and plants are for our survival and well being.

The Mayor in his inaugural address said that forests play a vital role for our nation’s development. Destruction of forests ruins the ecological balance of the globe and also weakens the efforts of pollution control. The need for plantation has become even greater these days because of the growing pollution in the environment.

Mr Mohammed Nissar said that all the disadvantages of destruction of trees and forests can be balanced only with plantation of trees which maintains bio diversity, conservation of water and climate control.

He said that as we take a lot of care in protecting the plants, it teaches us how parents and teachers have to nurture our kids in their early stages with knowledge and discipline helping them to groom as respectable citizens of our great nation.

He announced that the institution will be coming up with an Eco-Friendly Campus in 3.5 acres of land in Mangaluru fully equipped with all the facilities which are required for a Modern School. Stone laying ceremony will take place within months.

Acting Principal Asma Syed was present. Event Coordinator Lubaina concluded the program with the vote of thanks.

Bantwal, Jun 26: A day after expressing gratitude for the overwhelming response from students for the SSLC examinations, Karnataka Minister for Primary and Secondary Education S Suresh Kumar on Friday took to Twitter to laud a student who didn’t let his physical hurdles deter him from writing the examination.

Sharing image of the student, Kaushik, who wrote the SSLC examination at Bantwal’s SVS High School, the Minister said that he was taken aback by the boy’s spirit for writing the exam independently without relying on anyone’s help. Such individuals give new meaning to life. Others should learn from this.

In the picture, Kaushik is seen seated on the floor and using his toes to write answers.

Mangaluru, Jan 25: Orange vendor Harekala Hajabba, popularly known as 'Akshara Santha' (the saint of alphabets), who went on to build a school at Newpadpu village on the city’s outskirts in 1999 is among this year’s Padma Shri awardees.

When Hajabba received the call on being nominated for the award, he was standing in a queue to buy rations.

As he is not fluent in Hindi, Hajabba handed over the phone to an auto driver, who conveyed the news that the Padma Shri award will be conferred on him.

The unlettered achiever set up a primary school from his meagre savings of Rs 150 per day,  selling oranges in Mangaluru. 

“The first time I felt bad for being an illiterate was when a foreigner enquired about the price of oranges in English. I did not know what he meant. So, I decided to start a school in my village,” Hajabba had said during a felicitation programme.

When Hajabba decided to start a school, he did not get any support. He started the school with 28 children.

The school today has been upgraded to a composite high school and is catering to the educational needs of hundreds of children in and around Newpadpu.

He ran from pillar to post in the Zilla Panchayat to make his dream come true. All cash awards he had received went into building the school. The United Christians Association, moved by the sight of his dilapidated house, built a 760-square-foot house costing Rs 15 lakh for him. 

Hajabba’s life was prescribed for the syllabus of three universities - Davangere, Kuvempu and Mangalore. His success story is also included in a Tulu textbook.

He won the Karnataka Rajyotsava award in 2013, Real Heroes award from TV channel CNN-IBN.

Hajabba, when contacted, said he could not believe his ears when told about the award.

New dreams

The frail vendor, in his 60s, humbly declared that he could achieve all this because of the support of all. Hajabba now dreams of upgrading the school into a full-fledged PU college.
