Seasons Display Delight!
Pre Primary kids and their teachers set up their classrooms to celebrate the seasons with a stunning display.This engaging and fun seasons activity was a perfect way to consolidate students’ knowledge about the different aspects that make up each of the four seasons.Students understood different types of weather, how people prepare for the expected weather conditions like type of clothing , kind of food etc.The correspondent Mr.Ganesa Kannan and Secretary Mrs.Jeevalatha admired the display and appreciated the synergetic efforts of the students and the teachers.
Injecting Fun into learning Shapes !
Grade 5 students , especially the kinesthetic learners had a great time during their math practical class of making pattern blocks.They also got to practice using rulers,markers and construction papers for creating squares,traingle,rectangle etc.This hands – on activity was a foundational concept for critical thinking that helped children find out the properties of different shapes. The colourful shapes occupied the part of a great classroom display too!

Meet the makers of Grade 4 transforming vegetable waste into creative dolls,birds,trees and animals.For sure ,the parents of these children will thank the EVS teacher for making them cleanliness warriors of their kitchens!
Embracing the Adventures!
Holistic learning is impossible without studying people, places, and cultures. The more children travel, the more they learn.Our students of Middle Compartment piled into buses with packed stuff and excitement for a two days educational tour to Kerala on 22nd & 23rd November 2022.The students visited the Thiruvananthapuram Zoo,Priyadarshini Planetarium in Trivandrum and witnessed the Padmanabhapuram Palace,Sunset Point and Dancing Musical Fountain in Kanyakumari.This tour was a great opportunity for our students to feel, observe,learn and could carry back glimpses of new learning, entertainment, social interaction, experiences and exposure.
Learning all kinds of counting...!
Cardinal and ordinal numbers can get tricky. It’s a common mistake for our students to say “the number six question,” instead of “the sixth question.” A lot of our students tend to rely on their knowledge of cardinal numbers only, but ordinal numbers are just as important to know.Ordinal numbers tell us about position and Cardinal numbers tell us about quantity.Our Grade 1 students loved practicing their ordinal ,cardinal numbers and sight words this way through chart presentation. So we’ve added this set into both our literacy and maths centres.
Solving Shapes Puzzles!
Welcome to the Fairyland!
Everyone of us would like to imagine to meet a fairy one day and get all our dreams fulfilled.Here’s that fairyland with full of exciting adventures of Grade 2 Rainbow fairies.It’s the world of wonder where anything can happen.The English teacher used the ‘ Rainbow Fairies ‘ poem to create this magical fantasy classroom for the little fairies to create,imagine ,play and learn.That’s inspiring!
Primary Entrepreneurs!
Letting our grade 3 & 4 students run a real business in their classrooms was an exciting activity. Children learnt to communicate,think creatively,work as a team, trust each others,manage their time and money, make profit and avoid loss, thus developing their entrepreneurial skills. Our correspondent and Secretary admired the selling techniques of the students and had a great shopping time. Beside educationally valuable , the sales day was a stimulating environment and obviously full of fun!
