Digital Desk: It's a
popular misconception that giving kids holidays from school makes them happy.
However, a sixth-grade student from a school in Kerala has demonstrated that
not all kids like holidays by asking the district collector to avoid announcing
back-to-back holidays.

In an email addressed
to Wayanad district collector A Geetha on Sunday, the student, who went by the
name Safoora Naushad, asked her not to proclaim a holiday on Wednesday.

After the Collector
posted a screenshot of the letter on her official Facebook account and
congratulated the student, the little ones' "unique" request quickly
became popular on social media.

"It's incredibly
difficult to remain at home for four days straight. kindly hold class on
Wednesday "In the email, the girl said.

Following the weekend
breaks, the administration declared a local holiday due to heavy rains, so the
educational institutions in this high-end district were closed on Monday as
well.

The student wrote a letter of appeal to the Collector since
schools in Wayanad will be closed for four days straight due to the state
government previously declaring a holiday on Tuesday in observance of Muharram.

 The Collector praised the student and added that our kids
are smart and have a big world.

 She continued, "The future of this country and the
world is safe in their hands. Parents, teachers, the government, and the
society can all be proud of this generation."
