His actions speak louder than words

Kochi :

K Bibish, a Class X student of Sree Ramavarma (SRV) Government High School, Pallimukku, Kochi, has made the city proud. The unassuming boy has won the bronze medal at this year’s National Games.

“Many of our students are into sports from football to fencing. We knew Bibish was interested in sports but had no idea that he had so much potential,” said T G Vilasini, headmistress of SRV High School.

Bibish, who hails from Kanyakumari has been living in the city and training at the Regional Sports Centre, Rajiv Gandhi Indoor Stadium, Kadavanthra for the past three years. “We have eight students all of whom are into fencing. From the day he was selected we have done whatever we can to make sure that the boy achieves his dreams,” said Padman P K, sports teacher at SRV.

“Bibish and I stay together at the sports centre and we have a strict regimen of training and studies. He has always utilized every moment of his spare time either training or practicing. Fencing truly is his first love,” said his friend Nithin Surdhi J D. “He’s a reserved person and rarely speaks. But his actions speak louder than his words, especially when he is fencing.”

The school supported Bibish by utilizing their PTA funds to ensure that he had the best fencing uniform and gear for the Games. Though he missed his classes owing to the Games, his teachers assured that they would help him after school hours to ensure that he does well in his board exams.

“We are extremely proud of him and he deserves to be felicitated. We are awaiting his arrival to do the same.” said Vilasini.

The school has put up a flex of the boy’s achievement outside its main gate.
