Mangaluru, July 9: Mount Carmel Central School celebrated the achievements of its young learners at the English Communicative Classes Award Ceremony held on July 9, honouring students who excelled in the English Communicative Programme conducted by Accolades Academy during the academic year 2025–26. The ceremony recognised students for their outstanding communication skills, confidence, and overall performance.
The programme commenced with a prayer song, invoking God’s blessings, followed by a warm welcome to Mr Krishnaprasad Adappa, Director of Accolades Academy, whose presence added significance to the occasion.
Addressing the gathering, Mr Krishnaprasad Adappa highlighted that while Artificial Intelligence is transforming the way people learn and work, it can never replace the power of effective human communication. He emphasised that qualities such as confident speaking, critical thinking, empathy, collaboration, and interpersonal skills remain uniquely human and will continue to be indispensable in an AI-driven world. Encouraging students to cultivate these essential skills, he reminded them that effective communication would always remain one of their greatest strengths.

Principal Sr Melissa A.C. congratulated the award recipients on their achievements and appreciated the dedicated efforts of Mr Krishnaprasad Adappa and the Accolades Academy team in nurturing confident and articulate communicators. She encouraged the students to continue learning with passion, embrace every opportunity for growth, and strive for excellence in all their endeavours.

Certificates were awarded to the top four finalists from each section of Grades IV to VIII, while the first, second, and third-place winners in each grade received certificates and prizes in recognition of their exceptional performance.
The ceremony celebrated not only academic excellence but also the confidence, fluency, and effective communication skills that the students had developed through the programme.
The event concluded with a heartfelt vote of thanks, expressing gratitude to Mr Krishnaprasad Adappa for his inspiring address, the Principal for her constant encouragement and presentation of the awards, and the faculty of Accolades Academy and the school staff for their unwavering guidance and support.
