Gurmat Center is a registered society that is run by a board of directors, administrators, teachers and youth volunteers. We are grateful for our amazing team who invest their time and energy into the organization! All of our success is due to our amazing Sevadars, Sangat, and Guru Jee!

As part of our 30th anniversary celebrations, students and staff received gym bags. The bags contain custom GC 30th anniversary pencils, wristband, water bottle and pin! Thank you to all our sponsors for making this possible.

On October 31st, 2022, Sangat came together to remember the Sikh genocide of 1984 at the 20th Annual Shaheedi Smagam. As Sangat arrived, Sevadars gave out wristbands for a chance to win prizes and a candy bag! The event began with Kirtan, followed by a media presentation led by our MC’s, and Bhai Amandeep Singh Ji’s (UK) Katha on the 1984 Sikh genocide.This was followed by 3 grand prize draws, in which sangat got the chance to win an air hockey table, basketball arcade game, and Sony headphones!

On Sunday, December 25, Sangat gathered and watched “Chaar Sahibzaday” to remember the Sikh ithihas that took place in the month of Poh. After the movie, prizes were drawn for children that attended the event. Let’s not forget the countless sacrifices and Shaheedis of our ancestors, including Guru Gobind Singh Sahib Jee and Their entire family. It is because of their Kurbani that we are here today. 

Before students went on their Shaheedi Dihaday break, we had a week full of parent-teacher interviews! During these interviews, teachers discussed midterm exam marks and student progress with families. 

The Punjabi department was incredibly busy. All classes spent the month of November completing practice exams, followed by receiving individual feedback on their performance. Students completed their final midterms. They received their grades during parent-teacher interviews!

For the month of November, GCY was facilitated by Bhai Anoop Singh. Anoop Singh shared his experience staying at the Vidyala with Sant Giani Bhagwan Singh Ji Bhindranwale and his first time in India! After the discussion, an intense and fun game of musical chairs was played followed by pizza dinner and ice cream sundaes!

For the month of October, GCY was facilitated by Bhai Bayantseva Singh! He talked about his experience staying at the Miri Piri Academy in Amritsar. After the discussion, a fun game of Pictionary was played followed by pizza dinner and dessert! 

Students have been working hard for two weeks as they successfully completed their mock exams! Mock exams helped the students get ready for their midterms the week after in which they will be tested on everything they have learnt since September. Students will receive their grades and individual feedback in the upcoming weeks during Parent-Teacher Interviews!
