इण्टरहाऊस हिन्दी वाद-विवाद प्रतियोगिता
सामान्यतः मानव की मनोवृत्ति है कि वह समाज में चर्चित रहते हुए प्रतिष्ठा प्राप्त करना चाहता है। वह सदा अपने व्यक्तित्व को गढ़ने और स्थापित करने में सतत् प्रयास करता रहता है। व्यक्ति जब वार्तालाप करता है तब न केवल उसके ज्ञान की झलक मिलती है बल्कि उसके विचार, समझ और मनोवृत्ति का भी पता चलता है। हमारे व्यक्तित्व एवं सामाजिक जीवन की सफलता के लिए हमारी भाषा 'मील का पत्थर' साबित होती हैं। इसलिए भाषा को 'भूषण' भी कहा जाता है। यदि विचारों को प्रकट करने का माध्यम मातृभाषा हो तो 'सोने पर सुहागा'। इस दिशा में औपचारिक शिक्षा महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका निभाती है। विद्यालयी शिक्षण व्यवस्था में विद्यार्थियों के श्रेष्ठ परीक्षांक ही सबकुछ नहीं होते है बल्कि व्यवहारिक जीवन की मजबूत आधारशिला का निर्माण सर्वप्रमुख लक्ष्य होना चाहिए। हमारा विद्यालय 'द फैब इंडिया स्कूल' केन्द्रीय माध्यमिक शिक्षा बोर्ड के निर्देशों की पूर्ण पालन करता है। यहाँ विद्यार्थियों के चिंतन कौशल, तर्क कौशल और अभिव्यक्ति कौशल को निखारने के लिए एक ओर पाठ्यक्रम के संचालन में विविध गतिविधियों को शामिल किया जाता है तो दूसरी ओर साप्ताहिक क्रम में विभिन्न प्रतियोगिताओं का भी सफल संचालन किया जाता है।
इस सप्ताह 4 मई 2024 को विद्यालय के उच्च माध्यमिक विभाग में 'इण्टरहाऊस हिन्दी वाद-विवाद प्रतियोगिता' का आयोजन किया गया। यह प्रतियोगिता दो वर्गों में आयोजित की गयी। एक वर्ग में कक्षा नवमी-दसवीं तथा दूसरे वर्ग में कक्षा ग्यारहवीं-बारहवीं को रखा गया। प्रत्येक वर्ग में प्रत्येक हाऊस से दो-दो प्रतिभागियों को शामिल किया गया । इस प्रकार कुल सोलह प्रतिभागियों ने इस प्रतियोगिता में भाग लिया और अपनी क्षमताओं को प्रस्तुत किया। प्रतियोगिता के विषय इस प्रकार से रखे गए -
1. सोशल मीडिया से लाभ या हानि (कक्षा IX के लिए)
2. तकनीकी विकास से अच्छे दिन (कक्षा X के लिए)
3. क्या अंतरिक्ष की खोज आवश्यक है (कक्षा XI के लिए)
4. राजशाही या लोकशाही (कक्षा XII के लिए)
इस प्रतियोगिता में उच्चारण, आत्मविश्वास, विषय वस्तु और तर्क शक्ति को आधार बनाकर प्रस्तुतियों का मूल्यांकन किया गया। सभी प्रतिभागियों का उच्चारण और आत्मविश्वास प्रशंसनीय रहा। प्रतिभागियों ने निर्धारित विषयों के अनछुए पहलुओं से सभी दर्शक विद्यार्थियों का ज्ञानवर्धन किया। इस संपूर्ण कार्यक्रम में विद्यार्थियों की तार्किक विवेचनाएँ सराहनीय रही। इस प्रतियोगिता के परिणाम इस प्रकार से रहे है-
'द फैब इंडिया स्कूल' विद्यार्थियों के स्वाभाविक गुणों को परख कर उनके समुचित व्यवहारिक विकास के लिए सदैव कटिबद्ध है। विद्यालय की यह कार्य शैली ही इसे अपने क्षेत्र के अन्य संस्थाओं से विलग एक विशिष्ट पहचान दिलाती है। सफल सहभागिता और सहयोग के द्वारा शिक्षा की यह मशाल सदैव जलती रहे।
धन्यवाद।

HGMUN Experience
I had a great experience at the Model United Nations. I learned new things, including what I need to improve to become a better speaker. I discovered that to grow, you need to be confident and not be afraid to take risks. I also learned how to collaborate with others. It's not always about winning; sometimes it's about learning and gaining new skills.
We made new friends and created memories. We had a lot of fun and learned a lot in the process.
Yograj Singh Sonigra / XII
The experience at HGS MUN was unforgettable. I had a great time and even placed third on my committee. But what matters most to me are the memories and friends I made there. The people were amazing, especially the members of the organizing committee, who helped us in every way possible. This was my first MUN, but I intend to make sure it's not my last. Like every beginner, I faced challenges, but by the second day, I got the hang of it. I was the only student able to form a unilateral alliance, and I even helped other countries with their speeches, as many delegates hadn't prepared anything for the second day. My message to anyone reading this is to take the chance and seize the day.
Anshuman Singh / XII
I, Soumyajeet Solanki, a 10th-grade student, recently attended a Model United Nations (MUN) conference in Udaipur. It was my first time participating in an out-of-school debate, and I was thrilled to be there. When I arrived, I was fascinated by the venue.
During the conference, I was in the G20 committee representing Brazil. I learned about how the G20 works and the importance of collaboration. Making friends and building alliances is crucial because allies can support you to achieve success. I made two friends, Mridul and Madhav, who were both from Himachal Pradesh.
I did my best to win the conference, but I didn't. Initially, I was disappointed, but I soon realized that you don't always succeed, even when you give it your all. The knowledge and experience I gained were far more valuable than winning. As a first-time participant, I now understand that growth and learning are just as important as victory.
Debate: My First Experience
Taking part in my first debate was both scary and exciting. When I got on the podium, I told myself I could do it, which made me feel more confident. Despite my nerves, I kept a positive attitude and delivered my speech without any trouble. Seeing Tejpal Sir looking nervous made me even more determined to make Gandhi House proud. Nikita Ma'am's tips on debating, building confidence, and maintaining eye contact were extremely helpful. They allowed me to speak confidently against many opponents and improve my public speaking skills. I learned that to be a good public speaker, it's crucial to speak with confidence and maintain eye contact with the audience. This experience taught me the importance of confidence and speaking skills.

Importance of Positive Thinking in Our Life
Positive thinking plays a crucial role in our lives. We know that a person with a positive outlook tends to find the best in every situation and doesn't give up easily. A positive mindset often leads to favorable outcomes. To have a positive attitude means to see the brighter side of life—it’s about viewing the glass as half full rather than half empty. Negative thinking can lead to anxiety, stress, and frustration, whereas positive thinking helps you avoid these issues and focus on staying healthy while achieving your goals. The power of positivity can help you transform energy into action and achieve success. Many successful people consider positivity as a key factor in their achievements. It's often said that just as a healthy or unhealthy diet affects your body, positive or negative thoughts similarly impact your mind. By filling your mind with positive thoughts, you can experience amazing changes in your life.

A bridge course is a short-term program designed to help students transition from one level of education to another. NCERT organized a bridge course for Grade 3, and we planned various activities for different subjects. For example, in English, we taught nouns through games so that students could easily identify names, places, things, and animals. In Hindi, we used a poster activity to teach nouns.
In EVS, students learned about different sounds. Teachers took them outside and asked them to listen to the various sounds in their surroundings. This activity was not only fun but also educational, helping students appreciate the rich variety of sounds in their environment and enhancing their listening skills. In Maths, students learn descending order through a number game.
