Last day of the year, and many school were functioning. It is quite strange seeing the school running as in my days, we used to a winter break from Christmas eve to first week of January. A long winter break means a lot of fun and enjoyment. But it seems it is not the case with the todays school or may be the growing up kids needs more attention. Standing outside the school, soaking the sun i wan trying noticing the dull atmosphere, before it buzzing.
Some small vendors, parents were all queued up on the street waiting for their ward to comes out. The school situated beside a busy road gets quite buzzing once student will comes out but before that the atmosphere was quite silent. There were big trees, and under them there were vendors selling their items. While there is an ice cream vendors which is a common sight at any school the other was a mini truck restaurant selling some fried items.
On their other side, there were few autos waiting for the kids to come out. Generally a school provides their bus services but due to their fixed timing of early pick and late drip, many parents does not like them. So they choose these autos for their timely services. There were many autos, who are engaged in this services and provides better services at a cheaper rate. These autos dedicatedly runs for the school and always be on time. They run on a particular route and make a better services.
I went near to the ice cream cart trying to catch up with him. I like talking to sech person, as I am always interested in knowing how they make up their livelihood by operating these ice creams cycle. But this one does not appears to be friendly. So avoid the interaction. But I quietly snapped him from a closer view.
Being a busy street, the road has good traffic. But not in afternoon as people avoid getting into this area because of the school timing. So it remain vacant.
The restaurant operative inside the mini truck, started seeing foothold and they began selling their snack item.
It was the last day of year, but yet seeing the atmosphere, it does not feels like much entertaining. There is not much celebration and neither any feel like they are interested in any new year celebration. Anyway I have to reach my village to avoid getting late. And I made it bit late after driving 100km in a cold weather. It was cold as far as we are habituated to. It was intense drive and i reached safely.
In good faith - Peace!!

That is interesting that school is still going there. We are the same as you say it used to be. We get off right before Christmas and then students and staff don't come back until after the new year.
Time has changed a lot, our was more enjoyable time, but not anymore..they have leave for a day and then again school.
Yeah, it's not uncommon for schools over here to basically go all year. They have more breaks, but the long summer one is quite a bit shorter. A lot of it just depends on if they have HVAC to support summer school.
Happy New Year! I LOVE the trees I these photos. It's always fascinating chatting with people and understanding their lives a little. Such a colourful scene and colourful people = LOVE this vibe.
Happy New Year !... I am happy you loved the shots...India is colorful and this is a glimpse of it. I always try to opena talk to stranger just to know certain aspect about their life. Talking to the vendor does let me to know about a tourist spot which i was not aware of.... hopefully i will make someday.
Happy New Year! ✨ It’s fascinating to know that school’s still ongoing! I live near a public school and it’s pretty similar when it comes to transport. Public schools here don’t usually have school buses, so some parents pick up their kids or hire services. Most common are tricycles and e-bikes, but a lot of students still walk to and from school.
own convenience mode is good...but these autos does cater a lot of need of the parents...also the school bus charges are more than what these will charge...so always a win win game for the parents.
Happy New Year, my dear <3 Best wishes for your success!

If I were all of the students there, I would be sad for going back to school immediately. I mean, a week of january vacation must do the job of entertainment and trips so we can relax more and make sense of the year that came. Fortunately, students in all levels are not going back until further notice since the earthquake hit the north and our schools need renovation. Anyway, happy new year @steemflow. Days will be vibrant for you, for sure❤️
Happy New Year @whosee Hope the new year and new time brings lot of joy and happpines in your lives....
Amin
In the country where I live, students leave school at least two weeks before New Year's Eve so they can also enjoy Christmas with their families.
Happy New Year! What a pleasant glimpse into everyday life. It's really nice to see how the end of the year was spent in other parts of the world, even though it's not explicitly a festive atmosphere. I really liked the casual photos, and it's a shame you couldn't talk to that ice cream vendor 👉👈
I also like to chat a little with street vendors to find out what their lives are like, or at least how their day has been going (´• ω •`)ﾉ
