Kundapur, Jan 21: 'Annual day celebration is a reminder to teachers of the fact that the knowledge that they impart to students enlightens the younger generation and prepares them for the service of humanity,' said parish priest Fr Antony Lobo while speaking at the annual day celebrations of St Pius English Medium School, Hanglur Piusnagar here.

He further said that annual day celebrations strengthen the young minds in the context of present day's highly competitive world. 'Besides, parents too have greater responsibility in encouraging children to develop human values in their formative period,' he added.
