Dr. Sudha Ramalingam, in her presidential address, said that teachers and parents should identify the hidden talents of every child. In today’s competitive world, children may experience stress, so parents should recognise their children’s talents at home, encourage them, and help them develop their skills.

Addressing the parents, she said, “The best gift you can give your child is spending time with them and listening to them.”

She also emphasised that children learn by observing their parents. She encouraged parents to develop healthy habits, as their children would naturally follow their example. She stressed that parents should never compare their children with others.

She advised parents not to put pressure on their children but to guide them to become good human beings. She said that with proper support and encouragement, children would succeed in life. She also assured them that PSG would always support their children.

Following her address, she invited the students to take a pledge to follow healthy habits, maintain discipline, and become responsible citizens.

Addressing the students, parents, and teachers, he encouraged them to practise digital fasting on Sundays. He said that taking a break from digital devices would help everyone grow and make better use of their time.
