Trinity Central School organised an enlightening session on "Understanding Adolescence" on 27th August 2026 in the school auditorium from 11:00 AM to 01:00 PM for the boys of Grades 9 and 10.

The session was conceptualised with the objective of enabling students to develop a nuanced understanding of the physical, emotional, social and behavioural transitions intrinsic to adolescence.

The session was facilitated by Dr. Sunil Kumar G, MD (Ayurveda) and PG Diploma in Psychological Counselling, presently associated with Dr. A.V. Baliga Memorial Hospital. With 15 years of exemplary experience in psychiatry and de-addiction, Dr. Sunil possesses profound expertise in patient counselling, rehabilitation, community mental health initiatives, and tobacco and smoking de-addiction. He is additionally certified in Dementia Care by the Dementia India Alliance.

The deliberation encompassed age-appropriate psychosexual education, personal boundaries, consent, privacy, healthy peer dynamics and challenges commonly encountered during adolescence. Students were sensitised to the quintessence of self-respect, reverence for others and conscientious decision-making. The discourse further dwelt upon pertinent contemporary concerns such as peer influence and the imprudent overuse of mobile phones and online gaming.

Ms. Andrea graciously introduced and welcomed the resource person, while Ms. Anisha eloquently proposed the Vote of Thanks, expressing profound gratitude to Dr. Sunil for his invaluable time and erudite insights.

The session provided a safe, supportive and intellectually enriching platform for students to comprehend adolescence with greater clarity and to embrace this formative phase of life with heightened awareness, responsibility and respect.
