This project was not only approved by the WWF panel of judges but highly spoken of as well.

Community Services

The students expressed immense interest and zeal in the activity, where some even went a step ahead and baked the healthy food items put up for the sale, themselves. The PYP Bake Sale was another initiative to help our students become more confident, conscientious and caring individuals.

Reading Week

Reading Week“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn the more places you’ll go.”
― Dr. Seuss
PYP students celebrated their love of reading by organising week long activities focused upon books and different genres. The week kicked off with students excitedly decorating their classrooms with book covers and reading materials of their choice. During the week, we had a bunch of enthusiastic parents volunteering to come in and read to the students. The culmination of the reading week was a colourful and invigorating Book Parade. The students were dressed in fascinating costumes, with rich and vivid colours, exhilarated to be a part of the procession. There were flares and gowns and masks and swords; there were also tiaras and flowers and boots.
They took the round of the entire school, where the students right from Preschool to Junior and Senior school were standing to applaud the brilliant display inspired from various books.

IB MYP Remedial Classes

IB MYP students have been offered 2 weeks of Remedial classes, aiming to have a thorough revision before their Final Assessments. The remedial classes are being conducted after school for an hour, Monday thru to Friday. Students have been divided into groups of 10 and their facilitators/teachers are addressing to their individual problems on ‘one on one’ basis. By the end of these Remedial Classes, we hope that students are able to further enhance their knowledge and understanding of the subjects they are studying in the IB MYP.

 

 

 

IB MYP Student-Led Conference

As part of the pre-confabulation sessions of the Final Term Assessments, a Student-led Conference was held by our IB MYP students on Saturday, 9th May. The purpose of this conference was to encourage students to give an honest reflection of their learning journey in the Academic Year 2014-15. Students spoke about their strengths and weaknesses, the projects they look forward to and the ideas they want to pursue. The session saw smiles and candid discourse while the students brainstormed solutions to the problems they have faced. The conference was entirely student centric; students were the primary speakers and teachers and parents intervened only when required. It was a productive experience as the students realized their strengths/ achievements.
