“मैं भारत हूँ। ये 1950 का भारत… और ये आज का भारत।” When these powerful words were spoken confidently by a young child, the moment instantly filled every heart with pride. It was not just a presentation—it was a reflection of India’s journey, values, and the strength of young voices shaping our future.

A Beautiful Expression of India Then and Now

Through this inspiring presentation, our young learner beautifully showcased India’s transformation from a newly independent nation in 1950 to today’s modern, progressive, and technologically advanced country. With clarity, creativity, and confidence, the child expressed a deep understanding of India’s past, present, and aspirations for the future. The presentation reminded us that when children are encouraged to express themselves freely, they are capable of delivering powerful messages with remarkable maturity and confidence.

Education Beyond Books

At Sumitra Modern School, Naipalapur, we believe that education goes far beyond textbooks and classrooms. True learning is about:

• Building confidence at an early age
• Encouraging children to express their thoughts and ideas
• Helping students feel proud of their identity, culture, and roots
• Developing communication and public speaking skills

Activities like these help students connect learning with real-life understanding, values, and emotions. ​

Encouraging Confidence and Expression

When children are given the space to think, create, and speak openly, they grow into confident individuals who respect their heritage while looking forward to the future with hope and responsibility. Such experiences play a crucial role in shaping their personality, self-belief, and sense of belonging. Public speaking, creative expression, and experiential learning empower students to share their thoughts fearlessly and develop leadership qualities from a young age.

Every year, on April 11th, India observes National Safe Motherhood Day—a vital reminder of the importance of maternal health and the right of every woman to experience pregnancy and childbirth safely. This day is not just a commemoration, but a call to action: to ensure that every mother receives the care, respect, and support she deserves throughout her journey.

Why Safe Motherhood Matters
Motherhood is a life-changing experience filled with love, strength, and sacrifice. Yet, for many women, especially in underserved regions, it can also come with risks due to inadequate access to healthcare, nutrition, education, and emotional support.
Safe motherhood means more than surviving childbirth. It means living through it with dignity, receiving proper prenatal and postnatal care, being informed about one’s health, and having access to skilled healthcare providers.

The Role of Communities and Healthcare Systems
Creating a culture of safe motherhood requires a collaborative effort—between families, communities, governments, and healthcare providers. Access to clean facilities, trained midwives, emergency obstetric care, mental health support, and education can make a world of difference.

We must also fight the stigma and silence that surrounds maternal mental health. Postpartum depression, anxiety, and trauma are real and deserve attention and empathy.

Every Mother Deserves to be Seen and Heard
This year, let’s not just celebrate motherhood—let’s support it. Let’s listen to women’s voices, amplify their needs, and push for policies and practices that protect their health and well-being. Whether it's ensuring timely antenatal checkups, promoting institutional deliveries, or spreading awareness about maternal rights, every step counts.

Conclusion
A healthy mother nurtures a happy home and a stronger society. Let us honor her journey not just with words, but with action.
This National Safe Motherhood Day, let’s stand for her. Let’s stand with her—with care, compassion, and dignity.
