‘Books are the quietest and
most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of
counselors, and the most patient of teachers.’
One of the objectives of Orchids is to promote reading habit
among students. So it insists on USSR (Uninterrupted Self Sustained Reading)
periodically when each student of every class gets engaged in reading during a
specified time. It is a pleasure to watch the productive silence of reading
spread in each and every class. This is followed by Scholastic Book Fair for two days i.e. on
July, 19 & 20. It coincided with the PTM on 20.7.13.
