“Give me a lever long enough and place to stand
and I can lift this earth” Archimedes is supposed to have said.
The message of His Majesty the King during his
visit to our school on 11th June echoed an equivalent connotation.
His Majesty the King and the Gyaltsuen were on their tour to attend the recent
flood victims of Wokuna, almost a 5km drive from the school.
All of us shared a melody of ecstasy upon seeing
our Royal Couple for the first time in the history of our school. Their
presence, momentarily though, illuminated and swept the face of our innocent
kids with the glow of happiness and perfect bliss. They appeared like an ideal living epitaph that beamed fundamental human values and
morality. Like a walking dictionary of principles, His Majesty’s every word was
weighty, having the fibres of ideals, ethics and moral values.

| His Majesty the King and Gyaltsuen |
The message was loud and clear. And hearing it
closely, we were fortunate to distinguish the cause that makes our King and the
Gyaltsuen be in the seventh
heaven. While teachers were showered with praise for doing great work and
commanded for further pick-up, His Majesty equally pronounced that the children
must pull their weight at an international parity. Teachers were granted a
separate audience and commanded to give children a lever long enough so that
the children can move the world in their own way.
His Majesty reminded the children of what makes
him and the Gyaltsuen happy. When the
children study well and give their best in academics; when the children become
good listeners to their teachers and parents; when the students behave well;
and above all, when the students have a good heart with human values, it’s all
that makes our Royal Couple happy. He also reminded every one of us that “respect should not be enforced, it should be
earned”.
Like a dream, it took a few minutes to be with our
King and the queen. His Majesty was impressed and granted the school family
with Nu.66, 000 solely for
having a school picnic. We were commanded to let our children enjoy to the
fullest, before waiting for the monsoon. So this Friday, we are organizing a
picnic from His Majesty’s Soelray.
Long Live our King and the Gyaltseun.
