Schooling in Andaman

The journey of my school starts when i was in Dilanipur(in Andaman)stydying in Tunu Munu was 4yrs old and i used to go to school in my father's scooter but always used to cry and hold his shirt .The same thing continued when i was admitted to Vivekananda Kendra Vidyalaya.But since was 5yrs old stydying in LKG i used to cry but the funny part was whenever i used to hear the school bell rang i will run inside the Gate and would end up in class(totally forgetting to keep crying and insisting of not going to school).My parents i remember will say ok dont go to school and you will never learn like other students then i would say no i will go to school.Still my parents tease me by remembering that.I studied in VKV till 6th.

Then came my father's transfer order to Nicobar and i too shifted there to Govt.Secondary School Malacca.You will be surprised to know that the school is completely ruined by Tusnami as near the sea and there doesnt exsist Malacca school anymore.But i can't forget the school as i enjoyed the most from being the first student in the class to winnning in sports and dance competitions.I was there till 8th standard.

Then i was admitted to Govt Secondary School Middle Point in PortBlair.The friend's call me dadi by name.Got a TVS Champ to drive to the tution(Maths) and to the School.This School was upto 10th and for +1 and +2 went to Govt. ModelSenior Secondary School(the only school that time which was upto 12th).So all meritorious students end up there.

These were the days when there was a tough competition among the students to get a Government seat to one of the Engineering Colleges.The days were passed by just attending Tution classes.I still remember i use to leave the house by 4.00am and enter again by 7.00pm.This is the trend in Andaman All students go to Good tution classes and their is a competition to be in the batch full of talents.

Still i can remember the days when my result was declared and my parents started the counting of whether i will get a seat.After so many sleepless nights i was finally declared to get a seat of Engineering in Coimbatore.I really owe a lot to Andaman who has shaped my life and giving me a better future.
