SAI International Residential School hosted the Chairman’s Club Felicitation Ceremony 2026 on September 11, 2026, celebrating the remarkable achievements of its young scholars and inspiring them to continue their journey of excellence with purpose, perseverance and passion. The ceremony was graced by the presence of the Chairperson, Dr. Silpi Sahoo, whose inspiring address added depth and meaning to the occasion.
Sharing the extraordinary story of Easton LaChappelle, who transformed a simple teenage experiment into a mission to make advanced prosthetic technology more accessible, Dr. Silpi Sahoo encouraged the young audience to recognise the power of curiosity, compassion and perseverance. Her address reminded students that meaningful ideas can emerge when one has the courage to pursue possibilities and turn imagination into purposeful action.
The highlight of the ceremony was the felicitation of the Chairman’s Club 2026 achievers. Students who demonstrated excellence across various categories were honoured with certificates, Scholar Badges, Gift Vouchers from Oxford Bookstore and blazers. These recognitions symbolised not only academic and personal achievement, but also the values of commitment, consistency, dedication and the pursuit of excellence.
The ceremony concluded with the Headmaster’s Vote of Thanks, expressing gratitude to everyone who contributed to the success of the initiative and extending his best wishes to the achievers for their future endeavours. He also expressed his hope of welcoming more deserving scholars into the Chairman’s Club family in the years ahead, carrying forward its spirit of excellence and inspiration.
A soulful rendition of “Aashayein – The Song of Hope” brought the celebration to a meaningful close. The performance reinforced the message that every achievement is not an endpoint, but a new beginning filled with hope, purpose and possibilities.
The Chairman’s Club Felicitation Ceremony served as a celebration of achievement while also encouraging students to look beyond recognition and continue striving towards greater possibilities. At SIRS, excellence is honoured not simply for what has been accomplished, but to inspire young minds to imagine, aspire and achieve what is yet to be envisioned.
