Cluster Football Tournament Report
Date: 20th September 2024
Venue: DPS Jodhpur
The U 19 Football Team played a cluster match on 20th September 2024, with the team of DAV Senior Secondary School, Salumbar. The venue was DPS Jodhpur, and it was an electric atmosphere with all expectations and excitement.
The real show began with a bright blue sky in the background, but the real action was provided by the gamers themselves, who showed that they were serious and meant business right in the first minutes of play. The atmosphere in the stadium during the match was more than energetic. Supporters were screaming to the roof, and the aroma of popcorn was wafting through the air. Both the teams displayed agility in controlling the ball and powerful shots; thus, the game was thrilling. The blowing whistle signaled sharp action every now and then, keeping the crowd on the edge of their seats.
We were the underdogs and played with teamwork and tenacity for a more experienced opponent. Their persistence brought both the crowd and their competitors' respect. The matches went on one after another throughout the day and, obviously, every match was so suspenseful and tension-creating as different teams fought to win not just victory but also pride.
Outside the field, players and friends discussed how to achieve victory, shared snacks, and had some fun moments while enjoying their colleagues. In actuality, it was not only a tournament but also a day of friendship as well as sportsmanship. The team enjoyed the tournament to the fullest and valued the experience to emerge out of the event.
Pre-Primary Section Report
The Pre-Primary Wing of The Fabindia School designated the 3rd week of September to Animals! Teachers articulated learning in a playful and interactive yet informative manner. They conducted Animal Role-play and organised many other games helping students to recognise various animals. Activities for animals' sound recognition were also carried out. Apart from this, the sit-down stand-up game was articulated so that students even learned about terrestrial animals and air animals i.e. Birds. The curriculum of the week strengthened students' understanding
Global Warming
Global Warming is an issue that needs to be talked about. The current leaders vanish before seeing its major effects but it’s upon our generation to face the perils left to us by our ancestors. Humans should stop putting aside problems such as climate change and global warming. These problems will eventually catch onto us. Heat strokes during the summer are becoming common and temperatures are so harsh that I couldn’t even go out to play during my vacations. In a society where children cannot play outside will start to resemble a desolate utopia from George Orwell’s books. This is the point where society should start to introspect and self-evaluate before it’s too late.

Discipline
Everyone’s life revolves around discipline. From childhood to adulthood it plays a crucial role in every phase of human life. Some of the places where discipline is important are the school, colleges, and universities. It is essential to boost confidence and focus to achieve goals.
Discipline allows a person to concentrate on their studies, obtain the marks required, and prepare well for the future. All these things are essential for the success of people. Moreover, it helps a person to become physically and mentally fit.
A disciplined person is someone who has full control of their actions, and thoughts. Moreover, a disciplined person can easily gather the respect of others. This is because discipline is the first step toward the success of an individual. Thus, such a person can easily live a happy and fulfilled life.

Building a Reading Culture in School
As an Academic Dean, I believe that building a strong reading culture is the best investment we make for our students to grow intellectually and personally. Reading is the basic requirement of all learning. It just helps one to enlarge the vocabulary, improve comprehension, and stir the critical thinking part of our mind. More than academics, it develops creativity, empathy, and a deep understanding of what is happening in our world. In today's fast-changing, technology-driven world, students need to develop a habit of reading, not just for academics, but for their curiosity and growth. I encourage all students to read each day, be it fiction or non-fiction or any material which gives interest. The more I read, the more I grow-not just as a student but as a thoughtful and informed person ready to enrich society. Let us together build a culture where reading becomes valued, enjoyed, and celebrated in our school community.

जिम्मेदारी और सहयोग
वर्तमान परिवेश में इन मूल्यों का होना अत्यावश्यक हो गया हैं। जिस प्रकार मानव स्वयं को सर्वश्रेष्ठ समझने की भूल कर रहा था, आज उसके विचार गर्त में डूब गए। हमने अपनी जिम्मेदारी ठीक से निभाई होती तो ये बीती महामारी का संकट सामने नहीं आता। प्राचीन भारतीय मान्यताओं को पिछड़ापन कहकर नकारने वाले आज उसी के यशोगान में समय बिता रहे हैं।
एक मनुष्य को कई तरह की जिम्मेदारियाँ निभानी पड़ती हैं। परिवार के प्रति, समाज के प्रति, अपने रोजगार के प्रति और भी कोई हो सकती है। पाप और पुण्य की अवधारणा मनुष्य को जिम्मेदारी वहन के लिए प्रोत्साहित करते थे। आज इन अवधारणाओं से परे हो जाने पर मानव अपनी जिम्मेदारियाँ भी भूल गया।
बीती महामारी के अवसर ने एक बार पुनः जिम्मेदारी निभाने का अवसर दिया। समाचार-पत्रों आदि में यह अकसर पढ़ने में आ रहा था कि कई व्यक्ति, संस्थाएँ और जानी-मानी हस्तियाँ परोपकार में अपना तन और धन समर्पित कर रही है। जिससे जैसा सहयोग हो सकता है, कर रहा था।
जिम्मेदारी और सहयोग इन दोनों मूल्यों से हम अग्रगामी हो सकते हैं। 'परहित सरिस धर्म नहीं भाई' उक्ति सार्थक हो रही है। केवल इस बात का मलाल रह जाता है कि यह सब हमें संकट के अवसर पर सूझा। सामान्य परिस्थितियों में करते तो कुछ और बात होती।
हर परिस्थिति में इन दोनों मूल्यों को अपनाना चाहिए। सब अपने-अपने तरीके और सहुलियत से इनको जीवन का हिस्सा बनाए। परीक्षा होने पर ही हम बालकों का स्तर तय कर पाते हैं। इसी प्रकार यह भी एक परीक्षा ही थी।
अभिभावक अपने बच्चों के साथ, अधिकारी-कर्मचारी जनता के साथ और सभी एक-दूसरे के साथ सहयोग करें और अपनी जिम्मेदारी को ठीक से निभाएँ। हर स्थान पर ऐसा हो तो किसी प्रकार की कोई विपत्ति हमें छू भी नहीं सकेगी। सबसे ज्यादा उत्तरदायित्व शिक्षकों का बनता हैं, उन्हें अपने विद्यार्थिओं में इन मूल्यों को जागृत करना होगा।
