The National Cadet Corps (NCC) aims at developing discipline, character, brother-hood, the spirit of adventure and ideals of selfless service among young citizens. Not only these, it also aims to instil leadership qualities among the youth who will serve the Nation regardless of the career they have chosen. It also motivates the young to choose a career in the armed forces.
It was a dream for many students of St. Patrick‘s Academy to be an NCC cadet and march in their crisp NCC uniform. NO 2 Karnataka, Air SQUADRON NCC made their dream come true. The all-important NCC event, RAISING OF THE TROOP, in St. Patrick‘s Academy was held on November 13th 2018 with Group Captain Vimal Kumar Srivastava, Commanding Officer, Karnataka NCC, Air wing, presiding over the function. The first batch consisted of 25 cadets. Selection to NCC is done from class VIII every year. It is a two year program. Besides attending classroom lessons on a variety of topics and regular drills, camps and field trips, are an integral part of NCC training. Today the school boasts of 50 NCC cadets, eagerly marching to a smarter, healthier and brighter future.
Are leaders born or created? Well, some are born but all are created by the need of the day. Yes, leadership is a skill that needed to be honored. The leaders in the past who destroyed the mountains and lopped a way to uplift us to the present civilization are honored when the young leaders are appreciated. The investiture ceremony of St. Patrick's Academy kindled the aspirations of our young leaders to create a new world. The well decorated ceremonial hall was dignified with the presence of Rev. Brother Christopher Dawes, parents, teachers, and our honorable guest, Rev.Bro.George Xavier, Deputy Congregational Leader of Brothers of St. Patrick. Rev.Bro.Christopher administered the Oath of Office for the Senior School Head boy and Head Girl. The house Captains were sworn in and the Oath of their office was administered by the respective House Mistresses. Rev.Bro.George Xavier, inspired the young patrician leaders with his words of wisdom.
“They inspire you, they entertain you, and you end up learning a ton even when you don't know it.”
A teacher is the eternal guru and guide, whose firm and loving grooming has shaped generations from time immemorial. To honour the hard work and determination towards the profession, the students of St. Patrick's Academy celebrated Teachers' Day virtually on 4th September 2021 with high spirits. The celebration began with a prayer song followed by a welcome dance by the little ones. The Principal, Rev. Bro.Tomy Varghese, shared an encouraging message on Teachers' Day. Students surprised their teachers by putting on a dazzling show with zestful dance, drama, song, etc. to symbolize their love, respect, acknowledgment and gratitude. The staff had a fun-loving day at school where they flaunted their talents on stage with various performances that made the day a remarkable one.
