An interesting tradition is being set in Bhave School at Perugate, Pune. Students have started a tradition to offer books to their school as their own birthday gift. The school has received about 40 books in last seven months. Principle of the school stated that boys have done with the practice of lighting candles on birthday cakes and instead have, in a way, lighting candles of knowledge this way. They buy a book for themselves and gift one to the schools. Even the boys who are economically handicapped participate in this idea.
To take this idea further, this school has decided to keep its library open even in during summer vacation. When new students join school every June, the school gifts a book to each new student. On a off period when there is no teacher a box of about 60 books is offered to students and they are happy to use that period for reading a book of their choice.
