RABINDRA VIDYA NIKETAN, KEONJHAR, ODISHA
RVN is an expression of my gratitude to my parents whose blessings have manifested in the setting up of this school.
I have tried to pass on their efforts to the new generation, which resulted in establishment of this school
The emblem of Rabindra Vidya Niketan embodies the school’s philosophy of learning, growth, and enlightenment. At its center shines a radiant golden-yellow sun with gracefully flowing rays, symbolizing energy, curiosity, and the ever-expanding pursuit of knowledge. Within this glowing halo rests a vibrant orange orb that carries a white geometric motif, reminiscent of a tree of knowledge or interconnected growth lines. This central symbol reflects the school’s dedication to nurturing intellectual awakening, holistic development, and the unfolding of each child’s inherent potential.
Encircling this meaningful imagery, the school name “RABINDRA VIDYA NIKETAN” is elegantly arched along the top, while the Sanskrit motto “तमसो मा योतगमय” graces the lower arc. Literally translated as “Lead us from Darkness to Light,” the motto invokes the timeless wisdom that education dispels ignorance and illuminates the path toward truth, understanding, and righteous action. It expresses the school’s unwavering commitment to helping students rise above limitations, discover clarity through knowledge, and grow into enlightened, responsible, and compassionate human beings.
Flowing from these ideals, the management pledges to uphold an environment rooted in integrity, openness, and continuous improvement, ensuring that every child receives opportunities to thrive. The staff draw daily inspiration from the emblem’s message, striving to teach with passion, empathy, and creativity while nurturing each learner’s uniqueness. For students, the emblem stands as a guiding light—encouraging them to be curious, courageous, and committed to personal growth as they journey from the darkness of the unknown to the brightness of understanding.
Knowledge is Power as the proverb goes; let the coming generations grab the power and use the same to make a better world.
