S A Children Academy, Jaitapur- Bahraich, celebrated its Annual Function under the guidance of Shri Saket Kumar Tiwari, the Manager of the school, Shri Anuj Kumar Shukla, the Principal and the learned teachers. I too had the rare honour of being the chief guest at the meet. Shri Hariom Sharma and the well-known poet of the district, Shri Raghvendra Tripathi, were the special guests, who addressed the assembled company and read a few poems to loud cheers. A series of cultural events were organized by the students of the school. The students who secured highest marks in the year 2021-2022 were awarded different medals and report cards. In a speech to the students I said that early care and education programs for children have lasting positive effects such as school success, higher graduation rates, lower juvenile crime and decreased need for special education services later. On the contrary, if the children are not cared properly, it can have harmful effects on language, social development, and school performance. A good child care and education programme provide a safe nurturing environment that promotes the physical, social, emotional and cognitive development of young children while responding to the needs of families. The first four years of life are a period of rapid development of brain structures. The goal of early childhood education is to facilitate the development of a child's overall abilities and understandings to prepare the child for future endeavours. Thus proper child care and their systematic education is a process of refining the humanity or a process of removing impurities so the nation can be supplied with better citizens for an advanced future society which constructs the shining walls of a glorious part of the world with easy life style and peaceful atmosphere. Violence, rapes and even the blind growth of population are the side-effects of uneducated society. A country with illiterate citizens is not the country of human beings but a wildlife sanctuary.
