The passing away of Mr Herbert George is virtually the end of an era for our Association. For years together, Mr George, Alex, Somnath and Chittoda strove to formalise it and give it momentum. Alex has left Bengal, and Chittoda has left us quite sometime back. But Mr George soldiered on, and it is no small feat, that, despite his age, he continued as Principal of M P Birla and dealt with issues with the zeal and energy that would put a much younger person to shame.
I remember our meetings more often than not in Dalhousie Institute at his behest, or at Dalhousie Club at Chittoda's initiative, or at Alex's school in Tangra. Even if our numbers were small, there was no dearth of mirth and merriment.
Mr George's innings as leader of our Association was chequered. Always approachable, he paved the way for what was to come later on. He will always be remembered for his effusive personality and the guidance he offered many up and coming schools. May his soul rest in eternal peace.
Our mornings will never be the same
As they always began with your heartfelt wishes
Our gatherings we cherished when we celebrated with you
The poignant memories will live on forever in our hearts
Yet it is true that
Life is the greatest gift that God has given us
Death is the only bridge towards eternal life with God
We will never forget you....
ASISC WB & NE STATES CELEBRATES GREEN DAY ON THE BIRTH ANNIVERSARY OF MR. NABARUN DE , 20TH DECEMER, 2020 TO COMMEMORATE HIS CONTRIBUTIONS.
The sudden demise of a most dignified persona Mr Nabarun De, Principal of Central Modern School Baranagar and an Executive member of the CISCE council has left us all bereft.
The void created in his absence in the field of education can hardly be replete in future.
He had been an asset to the society with his dynamic and path-breaking policies to modernize the education system. ‘A friend, guide and philosopher’ in nature he never hesitated from meeting challenges and bringing favourable solution to all problems. To work with such a colossal figure was a privilege for everyone. Personally I found him very gentle, exuberant and a good human being with a philanthropic mindset. He had phenomenally remodelled the approach to child-centric education policies and many other fields connected to uplift the society. Whenever in need of right guidance I found him beside me overflowing with innovative ideas and advices. There will be no substitute to such an amicable personality and Head of an esteemed institution.
With a heavy heart I extend my prayers for the eternal repose of an erudite man who will be cherished in our memories forever.

Green Day Celebration in Egra Public School
Tribute to Mr. Nabarun De
The Green day at Akshar school was celebrated with a humble assemblage of students and teachers standing to pay honour to Mr. Nabarun De. With the spirit of ‘Earth Day Everyday’, the students conducted a short programme. They spoke about how we can practice and maintain afforestation and reforestation in our city, Kolkata. They discussed the Padrshree winner Tulsi Gowda also known as “Encyclopaedia of the Forest”. A round of quiz on environment was conducted. The students who answered correctly were given beautiful houseplants in little pots. The programme was concluded with a song originally composed by a student called `The way you’re living’ which called upon the youth of today to take a stand and alter the ways of living and give the earth a chance to heal herself. At last a diya was lit while the students planted a tree. All students were given one plant to take home, just like how nature gives to all, of all kinds.
