Today – Sunday, 19th Feb 2024 is a day of significance for SYMA. Education is the only thing that can change the lives of children coming from lower echelons of society. We firmly believe that only quality education can improve them and ensure their moving to a higher echelon.
கேடில் விழுச்செல்வம் கல்வி யொருவற்கு
மாடல்ல மற்றை யவை.
ஒருவனுக்கு இழிவு இல்லாத சீரிய செல்வமாவது கல்வி, அஃது ஒழிந்த மணியும் பொன்னும் முதலாயின செல்வமல்ல. மற்றப் பொருட் செல்வங்களெல்லாம் இயற்கையாலுஞ் செயற்கையாலும் அழிந்துபோந்தன்மையனவாதலின் சிறந்த செல்வங்களாகா. கல்வியின் கேடின்மையை, "வெள்ளத்தாற் போகாது வெந்தழலால் வேகாது வேந்தராலும் கொள்ளத்தான் முடியாது கொடுத்தாலும் நிறைவொழியக் குறைபடாது கள்ளர்க்கோ மிகவரிது காவலோ மிகவெளிது கல்வியெனும் உள்ளத்தே பொருளிருக்க உலகெல்லாம் பொருள்தேடி உழல்வதேனோ" என்னும் பழந்தனியனால் அறிக.
SYMA has an unsaturated desire for serving the Society. SYMA [Srinivas Youngmen’s Association] has been in the field of Social service since 1977. Education is the most important thing in life – it will give Worldly pleasures and give pleasure to the world too; it will not diminish by giving; it will spread the fame of those possessing it; cannot be destroyed… there is no better medicine than Education that can cure all ills. At SYMA, we realize that Education can refine a person and ensure one’s success in life. We at SYMA, feel strongly the primary responsibility of improving the Society and helping the underprivileged.
6th July 2008 was indeed a very auspicious day ~ for on that day Mr. R Sekar, IPS, Commissioner of Police launched our Tuition Centre ‘Growth’ and a right beginning was made. Every year since, we have been tasting grand success with very good results. SYMA Growth – a fullfledged tuition centre, is our cherished initiative in educating the economically poor children, uplifting their standards and making them responsible citizens, by providing quality educational support throughout the year free. In this beautiful World, most students are frightened to face the Public examinations. SYMA’s vision is to provide good quality education training free of cost for those students who suffer for want of opportunities.
The tuition activities for the present Education year 2023-24 concludes today with a special Pooja. Around 90 students (X Standard and +2 Science & Commerce groups) studied in our Centre this year. This morning we organized a pooja at our Educational center functioning at NKT Boys High School. Sri Parthasarathi Swami Thirukkoyil chinnamurai battar Sri Srinivasan swami conducted the pooja for the welfare of the students and SYMA. This evening we are organizing some fun-filled activities and give a send-off to our dear students with some gifts, lots of courage and grit to do well in their examinations.
Wishing all our students – “All the very best” in the upcoming Public examinations and in their career too.
The success of SYMA Growth in uplifting the students from lower echelons of society is fully because of the untiring efforts of teachers of SYMA Growth. SYMA places on record our profound thanks to the Management of NK Thirumalachariyar National Boys High School, our beloved teachers of SYMA Growth, Principal of Growth, Coordinator and all of YOU who had supported SYMA in all its endeavours.
After the pooja there was a session with the parents. It was indeed gratifying and happy to hear some of them praising SYMA for the efforts, providing a very positive feedback that the attitude, patience, discipline and knowledge of their wards had changed immensely and they now feel very confident and happy about their wards. Nice encouraging words ensuring that we are walking on the right path on our chosen goals.
With regards – S Sampathkumar
