राष्ट्रीय पुस्तकालय सप्ताह 
14 नवंबर - 26 नवंबर 2024

 
बाल दिवस, छात्र दिवस और पुस्तकालय सप्ताह का उत्सव

PM SHRI KV & BTC ITBP BHANU में 14-21 नवंबर, 2024

बाल दिवस, छात्र दिवस और पुस्तकालय सप्ताह मनाने के लिए एक अद्वितीय पहल के अंतर्गत, हमारी विद्यालय की लाइब्रेरी ने छात्रों को पुस्तकों और ज्ञान की दुनिया से जोड़ने के लिए अनेक समृद्ध गतिविधियों का आयोजन किया। हमने BTC ITBP BHANU की स्थानीय लाइब्रेरी के साथ सहयोग और समर्थन का अनुरोध किया, जिसका उनहोनें हमारे छात्रों का इस विशेष कार्यक्रम के लिए स्नेहपूर्वक स्वागत किया।

इस कार्यक्रम के तहत, प्रत्येक कक्षा को अपने  कक्षा अध्यापक और लाइब्रेरियन के साथ लाइब्रेरी का दौरा करने का अवसर मिला। छात्रों ने लाइब्रेरी का guided tour लिया, जहां उन्होंने इसके संसाधनों और पढ़ाई के महत्व के बारे में जानकारी हासिल की। उन्होंने पुस्तकें, पत्रिकाएँ और समाचार पत्रों की खोज में मूल्यवान समय बिताया, जिसमें वे पढ़ने और खोज के आनंद में डूब गए।

बच्चों का उत्साह दिल को छू लेने वाला था; कई बच्चे वापसी के लिए तैयार नहीं हो रहे थे,  क्योंकि वे लाइब्रेरी के वातावरण को निस्पृहता से आत्मसात कर रहे थे।

BTC लाइब्रेरी ने KV के छात्रों के लिए 'स्वच्छता ही सेवा' विषय पर एक_debate प्रतियोगिता का आयोजन किया, जिसमें मौके पर ही 10 छात्रों ने भाग लिया।

यह पहल, राष्ट्रीय पुस्तकालय सप्ताह, बाल दिवस और छात्र दिवस की स्मृति में, हमारे छात्रों के लिए एक अद्वितीय उपहार साबित हुआ है, जो पढ़ने और सीखने के प्रति प्रेम को बढ़ावा देती है।

हम श्रीमान  ए पी एस निम्बाडिया जी, IG BTC ITBP BHANU का दिल से आभार व्यक्त करते हैं, जिन्होंने इस सप्ताह के दौरान छात्रों को लाइब्रेरी में जाने की अनुमति दी। विशेष धन्यवाद ITBP अधिकारियों: निरीक्षक अनिल कुमार शुक्ला, निरीक्षक भरत सिंह, और ASI सुमन जी का, जिनके प्रयासों ने छात्रों के लिए एक सुव्यवस्थित अनुभव सुनिश्चित किया, और लाइब्रेरी के संसाधनों के बारे में उनके ज्ञान को बढ़ाया।

दोनों संस्थानों के लाइब्रेरियन ने भविष्य के कार्यक्रमों के लिए इंटर-लाइब्रेरी कोओपरेशन की एक MOU भी तैयार की है, जिसमें दोनों लाइब्रेरियों के उपयोगकर्ता की मांगों को ध्यान में रखते हुए "संसाधन साझेदारी, सम्मिलित पुस्तक प्रदर्शनियों, इंटरलाइब्रेरी ऋण, संयुक्त कार्यशालाएँ/सेमिनार, EG4.0 ज्ञान और प्रशिक्षण जैसी गतिविधियों शामिल हैं।

PMSHRI KV ITBP  BHANU के छात्र विशेष रूप से अपनी प्राचार्या, श्रीमती मोनिका जी के प्रति आभारी हैं जिन्होंने नवंबर में इन महत्वपूर्ण अवसरों का जश्न मनाने के लिए इस अद्भुत कार्यक्रम का आयोजन किया।

यह पहल न केवल हमारे छात्रों की साहित्य और लाइब्रेरी संसाधनों की समझ को समृद्ध करती है, बल्कि उनके भीतर ज्ञान और पढ़ाई के मूल्य को भी पैदा करती है, जिससे वे उज्जवल भविष्य के लिए तैयार होते हैं। अधिक जानकारी के लिए संपर्क करें: श्री उमाशंकर, लाइब्रेरियन:PMSHRI KV ITBP BHANU.

Celebration of Children’s Day, Students’ Day, and Library Week 

at PMSHRI KV BHANU & BTC ITBP Bhanu

14 -26 November - 2024

In a remarkable initiative to celebrate Children’s Day, Students’ Day, and Library Week, our Vidayalaya Library organized a series of enriching activities that connected students with the world of books and knowledge. We collaborated with the local library at BTC ITBP Bhanu, which graciously welcomed our students for this special event.

Under this program, each class had the opportunity to visit the library, accompanied by their class teacher and librarian. The students engaged in guided tours of the library, learning about its resources and the importance of reading. They spent valuable time exploring books, journals, and newspapers, immersing themselves in the joy of reading and discovery.

The enthusiasm displayed by the children was truly heartwarming; many were reluctant to leave as they eagerly absorbed the atmosphere of the library.

This initiative, commemorating National Library Week, Children’s Day, and Students’ Day, has proven to be an exceptional gift for our students, fostering a love for reading and learning.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Shri A P S Nimbadia IG BTC ITBP Bhanu, for granting the students permission to access the library throughout this week. Special thanks also to ITBP officials: Inspector Anil Kumar Shukla, Inspector Bharat Singh, and ASI Suman Ji, whose efforts ensured a well-organized experience for the students, enhancing their knowledge about library resources.

BTC LIBRARY Hosted a debate competition for the students of KV on Swachhta hi sewa and 10 students participated on the spot for this competition.

Librarians of Both institutions have also drafted an MOU of Inter-Library Co-opration for future programs keeping the user demands of both libraries in mind in the area of Resource sharing, Joint Book Exhibitions, Interlibrary Loans, Joint Workshops/seminars, EG4.0 Know-how and training.

Students of PMSHRI KV ITBP BHANU are especially grateful to the Principal, Mrs. Monika for orchestrating this wonderful program to celebrate these significant occasions in November.

This initiative not only enriched our students' understanding of literature and library resources but also instilled in them the value of knowledge and reading, preparing them for a brighter future.

Discussion on NCF SE 2023

The National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCF SE) 2023 is a comprehensive framework developed by the Ministry of Education in India, based on the vision of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. 

It aims to transform the education system with 

holistic, 

integrative, and 

rooted approaches 

to learning, pedagogy, and assessment.

Key Components of NCF SE 2023:



  1. Curricular Goals: Focuses on the development of the full range of human capacities, values, and dispositions.

  2. Curricular Areas: Includes foundational subjects like language, mathematics, science, social science, arts, physical education, and vocational education.

  3. Cross-Cutting Themes: Emphasizes values, inclusion, information and communication technology, guidance and counseling, environment, and rootedness in India.

  4. School Culture and Processes: Addresses school culture, processes, pupil-teacher ratio, enabling and empowering teachers, and the role of academic and administrative functionaries.

  5. Supportive Ecosystem: Ensures an appropriate environment for learning, including the role of teachers and the creation of a supportive ecosystem.

The framework is designed to cover the age group of 3 to 18 years and aims to move away from rote learning and content accumulation, focusing instead on holistic development and critical thinking.
