"I feel fantastic. I've previously competed in state-level competitions. Shooting against the global competition in a tournament, on the other hand, was a different experience for me. This victory for India would not have been possible without the constant support of my parents, teachers, and coach," said Tanishqa. "I wasn't focusing on my opponents. I just thought, I have to shoot, give my best to make my country proud," expressed Devisha Bhujbal.
What makes this achievement even more special is the role that school's pedagogy played in helping them reach their goals. With the vision of Mumbai Educational Trust's Founder Chairman, Shri Chhagan Bhujbal, the school MET Rishikul Vidyalaya was founded in 2002 to shape responsible learners to contribute to the global community through international mindedness and networking. MRV believes in providing a holistic education that helps students develop not only academically but also physically and emotionally.
MRV understands that success in any field requires a combination of hard work, discipline, and a growth mindset. MRV's archery program is one example of putting this philosophy into practice. From a young age students at the school learn the fundamentals of archery and develop their skills through regular practice and competition. But it's not just about the technical aspects of the sport - MRV also emphasises the importance of mental strength, focus, and teamwork. Both archers have been trained at MRV school under the guidance of the school's coach, Jayant Satghare. Both were interested in indoor games when they were in elementary school. These lessons have paid off in spades. MRV students have achieved incredible success in archery, culminating in their recent world championship win. But more importantly, they have developed the skills and mindset that will serve them well in any aspect of their lives, whether in their academic studies, future careers, or personal relationships.
MRV is immensely proud of world champion archers but equally proud of the role that the school's pedagogy played in helping them reach this level of success. MRV believes that education is about more than just imparting knowledge - it's about helping students become the best versions of themselves and MRV will continue to strive towards this goal every day.
