Dear parents, students, & staff,

We are at the last part of the academic year, a time for time for both reflection and planning for the year ahead.

We recently finished with our Primary exhibition. The primary corridor was buzzing with excitement paired with hard work as our grade 5 students. The exhibition was the best approach to celebrate the culmination of PYP learning journey. The entire process from planning to execution brought in self-management, decision making, collaboration, communication and responsive skills in students.

How does a month look like in our classrooms?

This month, our educators have put together their innovative projects, successful classroom activities, and unique teaching strategies that they have implemented. See highlights from April in the link below to understand what’s been happening in your ward’s IB classroom!

How ATL skills shape IB learners

Our MYP educators, Ms. Indrani and Ms. Arshdeep have recently authored an insightful article on Approaches to Learning (ATL) skills.

“ATL skills align with 21st-century competencies — the 4Cs: Critical Thinking, Collaboration, Creativity, and Communication,” shares Ms. Indrani.

“Students begin developing these skills in the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), strengthen them in the Middle Years Programme (MYP), and master them in the Diploma Programme (DP),” adds Ms. Arshdeep.

“Sharing the Planet” at PYP Exhibition

The PYP (Primary Years Programme) Exhibition is the culmination of learning experience for students in the final year of PYP. Our Grade 5 learners showcased their inspiring journey through the PYP Exhibition 2024–25, exploring Biodiversity & Sustainability under the theme “Sharing the Planet”.

From innovative projects on climate action to captivating performances, our students demonstrated creativity, collaboration, and a commitment to sustainability.

A heartfelt thanks to our Chief Guests Dr. Shreyans Gandhi, Ms. Jayalakshmi, and all our parent mentors for their invaluable support.

Beyond!
