DIMAPUR — Patkai Christian College (Autonomous) celebrated the International Women's Day at Bunrock Chapel Hall on Wednesday.
Speaking on the occasion, Sashizungla Ao, founder principal of Hope Academy, acknowledged the unwavering support and contributions from people right from ‘planting a seed in her heart’ in 2006 to start a preschool to the present time in becoming one of the best schools in the state.
While sharing the struggles and challenges she had faced along the way, she emphasised that with the help and support of her loved ones, her faith in God and the prayers of many supporters, she was able to overcome those difficulties and succeed, stated an update from the college.

Alluding to this year’s Women’s Day theme “Give to Gain,” Ao said she would not have been standing there if it was not for the many people who had contributed in different ways.
“It is not about giving money or grand gestures; it is about sharing our time, skills, and kindness with others around us. When we give, we create a ripple effect that positively comes back to us. Giving is contagious; when we give, it inspires others to do the same,” she concluded.
During the programme, Dr. Vivee Peseye led the congregation in praying for the lives of women and others around them, while also acknowledging their contributions to society.
Women students from the Margaret Shishak School of Music (MSSM) presented a song denoting themes of self-discovery, growth and breaking free from chains. The song portrayed the idea of “taking flight towards a new future,” symbolising the courage to soar high while overcoming past constraints, it added.
