We are excited to share with you the wonderful achievements and initiatives that have taken place at our school during the month of August.
As part of our 77th Independence Day celebrations, our students enthusiastically participated in various events to commemorate this important occasion. The spirit of patriotism and unity was truly inspiring to witness.
Throughout the month, our students engaged in a range of community outreach programs under the banner of HEALTH4LIFE. This initiative reflects their commitment to making a positive impact on the community. Through meticulous research, our students identified the pressing need for promoting health and well-being, and they have taken significant steps in addressing this issue.
One remarkable highlight was the Inter House Yoga Competition, where our students showcased their exceptional flexibility and mastery of yoga poses. Their dedication and skill were truly commendable.
At our school, the well-being and safety of our students are of paramount importance. We have taken proactive measures to raise awareness on various pertinent topics such as bullying and stress management. Our dedicated student counselors conducted sessions for our primary and middle school children, equipping them with valuable skills to navigate these challenges successfully.
Our Grade 12 students have begun discussions with career counselors and educators to navigate the intricate college application process. We believe in providing comprehensive support to our students as they embark on this crucial phase of their academic journey.
As the term 1 examinations are underway, the Grade 10 and 12 students have been demonstrating their commitment to academic excellence. We are confident in their abilities and wish them the best of luck.
Looking ahead, our school is preparing for the upcoming Teachers’ Day celebrations. It is a time to honor and express gratitude to our dedicated educators who play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our students.
I hope you have been following the weekly information we have been sharing regarding the UNCRC child rights articles. Our school is actively engaging with these concepts through various activities, promoting a deeper understanding of the rights and responsibilities of our students.
Exciting times await us as we prepare to move to our new early campus in the city in the first week of September. We are diligently making the necessary arrangements to ensure a smooth transition for our young learners. We believe that this new environment will provide enhanced opportunities for growth and learning.
The accomplishments of the month of August are numerous and impressive. I encourage you to explore the detailed updates that we have prepared. Your active involvement and support have played a crucial role in the success of these endeavors, and we express our heartfelt gratitude.
