A final bell. A lifetime of service.
I only just came across this moving moment from Bishop Cotton GirlsтАЩ School in Bengaluru, nearly a year after it happened.
A school attendant, affectionately known as тАЬDas Uncle,тАЭ was retiring after 38 years of service.
On his final day, he checked his watch and rang the large school bell one last time. The students counted every stroke & then erupted in cheers and applause, joined by their teachers.
The pride on his face & the depth of his bond with the school are unmistakable.
I was moved too.
When our schools nurture dignity and respect for everyone who serves their community, whatever their role, there is every reason to be optimistic about our future.
