Blessings For The Hsc Graduates!
By Krishnarupa devi dasi.
For the second time in its history, students from the Bhaktivedanta Swami Gurukula here on New Govardhana will be sitting for their HSC (Higher School Certificate) 2019 exams. The HSC is a credential awarded to secondary school students who successfully complete senior high school level studies in New South Wales, Australia. It is an objective highly sought after and its success requires hard, consistent work.
Seven students passed last year’s HSC, breaking the ground for future Bhaktivedanta Swami Gurukula students, now 130. This year, several graduates will be sitting for their HSC: Abhay Reissenberger; Karuna Hooper; Lara Scott; Vrinda Mitsiou; and Surabhi Singanamala.
Principal Vinod Bihari dasa hopes that “the world will be a better place as more of its students have a positive effect on the people they interact with, especially when they graduate”.
He says, “The students have unique qualities and also a deep appreciation for the school and the Krishna conscious environment they study in. The school’s objective is, indeed, to ensure that its pupils continue to learn in this positive spiritual atmosphere.”
On behalf of the Hare Krishna community here at New Govardhana, The Conch wishes all success and blessings for the 2019 HSC exams!
