My Wishes for
a new school
year
Gerson A. de Moura

2. I wish that every minute you spend with your students, their
parents and your workmates be of mutual joy, motivation and
positive vibration.

3. I wish you all courage and determination to face all the challenges.

4. I also wish that harmony reigns among all the school community
so that you may all work together to aid all the students to achieve
the success they pursue and so that no one is left behind...

5. May each day you be able to give your contribution in building a
community of learners working together with other teachers, the
student’s parents, the school administration and with all the school
community and support one another .

6. May each evening you go to bed feeling pleased, because you did
the best you could have done to help everyone on your reach.

7. May you all be treated with kindness and respect.

8. May you have peace of mind and spirit to follow your path feeling
happy, awesome and pleasure in asking questions, in seeking the best
ways and finding the best answers.

9. ...May you find time to enjoy the company of each other every day.

10. What else do I wish you all? I wish that each day you may feel
blessed for having the support and care of each other.

11. I also deeply wish that you all may create beautiful and original work
cooperatively, so that this school may be seen and known by others as
a fertile field not only for growing knowledge, but also brotherhood
and love.

12. I wish you all be blessed with the fulfillment of all your personal,
spiritual and professional wishes. Also, that this school keeps on being
like a spaceship which takes all its passengers to sorts of destinations
and lands.

13. May all new
members to this
community find
shelter and be
embraced by the
caring hands of all of
you.

14. So, these are the things which I wish to you all. Thank you for all that
you’ve taught me. Thank you for one day letting me be a coordinator
and a vice-principal. Thank you for having patience and listening to me
even though I had nothing new to say...

15. A zillion thanks to
you all! This is not a
farewell. Let us all
keep ourselves in
each others hearts,
minds and prayers.
Until one day when
we will all meet
again.
From your friend,
Gerson A. M.
