“It is the moment to cherish glorious, memorable years that the school and its alumni have passed through, to motivate young minds to emulate the same. I would like to urge young cadets to seize each and every opportunity that you get, and live up to expectations of school and nation,” said Patnaik.
Set up by former Chief Minister Biju Patnaik in 1962, the Sainik School has become a benchmark for quality education, character building and personality enrichment.

“The strength of our education system not only lies in academic excellence, but rests in the ability to empower the students with knowledge, confidence, responsibility, and ability to think and face situations of life independently,” added Patnaik.
