Good Morning, respected Father, Sisters, teachers and my
dear friends, today’s assembly will be conducted by students
of the GANDHI HOUSE
Please join your hands and close your eyes for the prayer.
Dear God,
Thank You for creating us with love and purpose.
Help us to see our self the way you see us —
UNIQUE, VALUABLE, and WONDERFULLY made.
When we feel unsure or not good enough,
Remind us that we are enough just as the way we are.
Teach us to love and respect our self,
And to treat others with that same love.
Give us the strength to believe in our worth,
Even when the world tries to tell us otherwise.
AMEN
Now we will sing a Hymn “COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS”.
Our topic for today’s assembly is :
COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS
SELF-WORTH means knowing that you are valuable just the
way you are. It is not about how you look, how much money
you have, or how many likes you get on social media. It is
about understanding that you matter, simply because you are
you.
Each of us has strengths, talents, and a unique story. We
may make mistakes or feel unsure at times — and that’s
okay. It doesn’t make us less worthy. In fact, learning and
growing from those moments only adds to our strength.
Sometimes, we compare ourselves to others and feel like
we’re not good enough. But remember, the only person you
need to compare yourself to is the person you were
yesterday. Be proud of your progress, no matter how small it
seems.
Believe in yourself. Respect yourself. And never let anyone
make you feel like you’re not enough — because you are
more than enough.
Mahatma Gandhi's teachings emphasized that true self-worth
comes from within, not from material possessions or external
validation. He believed in self-reliance, simple living, and the
importance of service to others, all of which contribute to a
strong sense of self. He also stressed the importance of
truth, non-violence, and compassion as core values for a
fulfilling life.

“THE TALE OF TWO POTS”
Once upon a time, in a peaceful little village, there lived two
clay pots on a wooden shelf in a potter’s hut. One was new
and shiny, proud of its perfect round shape and smooth
surface. The other was old and cracked, with a chip on its
rim and a faded colour from many years of use.
Every morning, the potter would take both pots down and
use them to carry water from the river to his garden. He
always carried one pot in each hand, smiling as he walked.
The shiny pot felt proud. It always arrived full of water, not
spilling a single drop.
But the old pot was sad. It had a small crack along its side,
and by the time they reached the garden, it was only half
full. It often whispered to itself, “I’m not good enough
anymore. I can’t hold water like I used to.”
One day, the old pot finally spoke up. “Dear potter, why do
you still use me? I lose water every time. I’m broken.”
The potter stopped and smiled kindly. “Come with me.”
He gently carried both pots down the path once more.
This time, he said, “Look closely at the side of the path
where I carry you.”
The old pot looked. To its surprise, beautiful flowers were
blooming all along the trail! Yellow daisies, purple violets,
and tiny blue forget-me-nots danced in the breeze.
“You see,” said the potter, “I knew you had a crack. So I
planted flower seeds on your side of the path. Every day, the
water you lost helped them grow. Thanks to you, our path is
now full of beauty.”
The old pot glowed with joy. It wasn’t perfect—but it had a
purpose.
And from that day on, it no longer felt broken. It felt special.
By this play we want to remind you all of something very
important that each one of you is special, and each one of
you is equal. We all have different talents, and that’s what
makes our class so wonderful. But remember, being different
doesn’t make anyone better or less than someone else. We all
belong here, and we all matter the same.
So let’s always treat one another with fairness, with
understanding, and with kindness—because in this school,
everyone is equal.
As we are nearing our great poet Rabindranath Tagore's birth
anniversary….we should also keep in mind his philosophy
emphasizes self-realization through connecting with the
universal soul and transcending narrow self-interest.
He believed that finding one's worth lies in expanding
consciousness of unity with all and contributing to society
rather than focusing solely on personal gain.
Now I would invite Father to continue with the assembly.
Let us all raise our right hand for the PLEDGE to the
NATION.
Now I would request everyone to please stand at attention for
the NATIONAL ANTHEM.
