Main nahi, kich houn nahi, kich aye na mora, awsar lajja raakh le, sadna jan tera

(BhagatSadna Shri Guru Granth Sahib)

Lord I am nothing, nothing belongs to me, I know nothing – Yet you some how do always come at the right moment to help me to keep alive my self respect and esteem

To pray and seek the eternal blessings of the Almighty are the essential values and habits inculcated at GNA. Divinity, service to society and a grateful heart are the key quality traits nurtured in every student of the school.

The students are regularly involved in visiting the Gurudwara for chanting Shadads on Gurupurab. They are also encouraged to participate in social work in the neighbourhood area and to be sensitive to their environment and human needs.
