English Association Inauguration 2020 July 3rd

The size of your problem is nothing compared to your ability to solve them, the English department of Sacred Heart College has  proven it. In spite of all the difficulties of covid season, English association inauguration was conducted through an online platform for the first time in history on July 3, 2020.

The programme  started with a prayer song chanted as gratitude to the gods. Fr Sabu Thomas kicked off the function with a welcome speech followed by an inaugural speech by Fr  Prashant, our respected principal. He enlightened us with his words of wisdom which were on how to be a perfect student. Dr. K. M. Johnson , the head of a department advised the students to utilise the association events to develop our skills and gave us ideas to conduct more such outreach programs as literature students and further went on to introduce the chief guest Professor Jayaram. Jayaram sir is a retired professor from our college responsible for a number of art works which adorn the college halls and gardens.  He gave us a scintillating speech in which he sparked the minds of the students while talking about the importance of literary theories and it's applications on the research fields of the literary world .  We all  felt blessed for the opportunity to see him in action.  

Teachers and students made the evening more eventful by showcasing their outstanding talents. Professor Shijo Varghese  played flute to the   song "lokam muzhuvan sukham pakaranayi"  as a prayer for the recovery of the whole world from the  covid pandemic . All the students enthusiastically joined hands for an excellent cultural fest where Austin played guitar and dazzled everyone with his guitar skills, Yedhusree  recited an informative speech on ' Thé rising issue of War Between India and China'. Rizva, Sukanaya  and Gautham pulled several heart strings with their soothing voices and melodies.  Other events of the day included a mesmerizing dance by Andrea and a poetry recitation by Meera about the way things and perspectives change in the transition from childhood to adulthood.  

A literary quiz was was also conducted by the PG students in which everyone participated with great vigor and enthusiasm. Finally Anagha Stephen delivered  the vote of thanks and the function was wrapped up with everyone feeling warm and happy inside after being able to see their friends and teachers perform their talents and impart knowledge during such difficult times.
