Principal’s Annual Day Report 16th November 2018
OVERVIEW 2018
This report was prepared with a reflective spirit looking back on our
accomplishments to date, while also sharing recent activity in a variety of key
organizational domains.
“The highest education is that which does not merely give us information
but makes our life in harmony with all existence.” –Rabindranath Tagore
We worry about what our child
will become tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today. To celebrate the
journey of learning we embraced the My Good School program.
My Good School Program for schools helps empower students by creating an
environment for the personal and social development of an individual. By
subscribing to our philosophy of quality in education, offering an environment
where experiential learning is made possible through activities beyond just
study brings to life learning that would otherwise be theoretical and
uncoordinated.
The Four S’s (Service, Skill, Sports, and Study) play a great role in our
journey of learning.
The first S SERVICE:
Service learning is a spin on both community service and project based
learning, it’s important for students to understand their important role in a
community. Service learning projects can be life changing for students. They
learn empathy for others, and may even get the real life experience they need
which will inspire them to find a career. Through helping others students may
find that they want to go into the human services field or even go more global
by joining the Peace Corps.
To develop
the Service skills we do; Community Outreach programs
•
Organic Farming
•
Environment Awareness Rallies
●
Cleanliness Drive
●
Educating Community
●
Green School Audit Program
SKILL: About
90 per cent of employment opportunities require vocational skills. Only 20
percent of our graduates get employed. The rest are unable to get suitable
employment due to the lack of employable skills. In general, apart from the
core subject expertise, some of the prominent employable skills that employers
seek are:
●
communication skills (verbal and written)
●
attitude towards work
●
lifelong learning
●
selfmanagement
●
teamwork
●
problem solving
●
selfmotivation
●
stress management
●
creativity
●
technology/IT skills
Integration
of skill development into education is essential for skilling to give wings to
children. Skill development will remain a dream if carried out in isolation
through skill centres alone. It has to be imparted in schools alongside
academics hence we conduct:
●
Inter House Competitions
●
Exhibitions
●
Annual Day
●
Inter Class Competitions
●
Bookaroo English Literature Festival was organised at the school
● We stood First at the Patriotic
Dance Competition organised at the Government High School, Bali
● The
brilliant young girls Muskan Rathod and Devika
Choudhury got an opportunity to experience the Values based leadership programme at The Shri Ram Ananta Aspen
Leadership School this summer.
●
Our students got acknowledgements at the Heritage Girls School, IIMUN
● For writing
skills, children were exposed to Launchora ‘Creative Skill Development Program’
aimed at helping students to discover and develop their creativity through
storytelling. Fifty Eight students published their stories on Launchora.
● Our
students participated at the Silver Jubilee Commemorative Young Thinkers Conclave 2018 at Mayo Girls
School, Ajmer.
●
Vinita Sirvi got 3rd position in Extempore
Competition amongst 24 schools
● Divya
Chundawat and Muskan Rathod got Best Critic Choice Award in script writing
amongst 19 schools
● And the new
addition to our skill development program is; our students have enrolled
themselves for the National Scouts and Guides program.
SPORTS
& STUDY: They resemble the two sides of the same coin. If sports
education is carried out accompanied with the academic curriculum, the overall
personality of the student is increased to quite an extent. The qualities of
the leadership, sharing, team spirit and tolerance are learnt from sports.
Sports education not only teaches the students to maintain the physical
stamina, but also the habit of obedience, discipline,
Opportunities
are created to keep children evolved with sports and study by conducting:
Inter House
Competitions Inter School Competitions District Competitions State Level
Competitions Exchange Programs
Project/
Experimental Study Outdoor Education
Literary
Week
Student Led Conferences
Some of the achievements are:

High School, Bali.
