He said LCS has completed twenty four glorious years, a milestone built with trust. The progress of students’ curricular and co-curricular development has been fulfilled by dedicated teachers and motivated students. LCS Colloquium provides a platform for parents, teachers and students to come together for the holistic development of the children. Honouring and appreciating toppers will encourage achieving their goals and disciplining their behaviour. The Chief Guest was felicitated by the Manager Rev. Dr John Baptist Saldanha and other dignitaries.

The Chief Guest Dr Praveen John addressed the gathering and told motivational stories to encourage the students. Students were encouraged to develop positive attitude, maintain perfect balance between curricular and extracurricular activities to prepare for the board exams. He urged the students to make a conscious effort to reach their goal, and use their talents to add value to the world. He advised the parents to listen, encourage, be their best friend and not to be over-protective. He gave tips to work hard, to be disciplined, not to compare themselves with others and manage their time effectively.
