PROCYON 2018

Procyon is an inter-class cultural two day fiesta, wherein students of 16 different classes showcase their talents in various cultural activities on a common platform. The Inaugural Function commenced with the welcoming of the guests. The Director, Rev. Kinley D’Cruz, in his address recollected the beginnings of “fun days” which were initiated to showcase the talents of students who were always bubbling with energy. Rev. Kinley D’Cruz hoped that the right spirit would prevail. He urged the gathering to encourage, respect, acknowledge and cheer for all the participants and not merely the winners. The Director hoped that the Best Team would win and prayed that it would be a Great Event. The Chief Guest, Mr. Rajendra Talak, in his address encouraged the students to participate in all the activities and to put in their very best. He emphasized on getting the job done and that success would follow naturally. Mr. Rajendra Talak emphasized on the need of pursuing ones talents along with studies for which one needs to manage time effectively. The Chief Guest also highlighted on the need of making a contribution to the society & to the country. He said that it is a matter of perception: “50% of the people do nothing, 30% of the people do things for themselves, while only 20% of the people do something for others.” He stated that in life various opportunities will come and then one has to accept it to do something for others. Finally, when you have given back, it gives you satisfaction which is more valuable than money.

Soon after, colourful balloons were released by the Chief Guest and the Guest of Honour and PROCYON 2018 was declared open. As a token of appreciation the Director, Rev. Kinley D’Cruz, presented a memento to the Chief Guest, Mr.Rajendra Talak, while the Principal, Dr. Neena Panadikar, presented a memento to the Guest of Honour, Mr. Andre D’Souza.
