Month 2015-16

P YP Grade 3 students had a very fulfilling and enlightening

study tour to Prince of Wales museum - Kala Goda, fort Mumbai. The

trip took place on the 8th of December, 2015. A total of forty three

students and five teachers were involved.

This study tour opened up new ideas on our current Unit Of

Inquiry - ARTS. We all had a chance to see real Indian history

through works of different Artists. We saw different religious and

cultural sculptures, paintings, textile designs, photographic art, just

to name a few. What caught the attention of everybody was the

NATURAL HISTORY. There was a rich natural history of India on

display. Many land animals, sea animals and a variety of bird species

were beautifully set up for us to see. It's interesting to note that most

of background displays in the animal cubicles was landscape and

seascape paintings by artists.

At the end of our tour, it was evident on the students and teachers

faces that, THEY ALL ENJOYED THE VISIT.

REFLECTION ON XUBERANCE 2015

I t was a great privilege to represent our school at the annual festival, Xuberance hosted by Dr. Pillai Global Academy, Borivili on December 4, 2015. We were selected for the category Cooking without Fire.

When we gave in our names, we were unaware of the challenges and excitement awaiting us. We left

no stone unturned to present our best. We had a detailed brainstorming session with Mrs. Uma

Gandhi about our menu. We were also fully aware that presentation of the dishes too plays a very

important role in the competition. So we made a check list of all the cutlery and equipment required.

On the day of the competition we realized that we were pitched against well prepared and

enthusiastic teams representing about ten schools. This only helped to pump our spirit and zeal to a

new high. We were given two hours to get ready with our dishes. Out came our apron and hat and all

the ingredients and we started whipping out our dishes with great gusto. We realized cooking can be

all the more exciting when in a competition. Our main dish was pita bread and hummus accompanied

by a tangy salad. Then we made an appetizing dessert with seasonal fruits, whipped cream and

chocolate sauce. It looked so tempting that we had to control each other lapping it all up. Then, came

the inviting thirst quencher, cranberry cooler. We were so excited and proud of our creation. We took

just 45 minutes to get all this in order.

The judges loved out food and had a special word of appreciation for our dishes and commended us

for being the only “all boys” team. However, we did not win a prize. Probably we were up against

tough competition. Nevertheless, we awarded ourselves by quickly licking off every morsel of food we

had prepared. Mmmm...It was finger licking good!

It was a great opportunity and we thank our school for having given us such a wonderful opportunity. A special thanks to Mrs.Uma Gandhi who guided us at every step and also took the responsibility to accompany us to Borivili.

ISA Project

Grade 8 Exploring Societies in Individual and Societies Subject

F ew days back, when Jasmine Ma’am told us about our next brainstorming activity we were overjoyed. We

were put into groups based on our seating arrangement. Our project topic was "Is India a multi-cultural society.

Justify.” We discussed about the various cultures and religions India is blessed with. We looked for instances

which shows India’s diversity as strength for the nation. After lot of petty and great discussions, we finalized on

the points we wanted to speak. We stated points based on these main ideas, with each group contributing at least 2

ideas. Ideas like ‘India has many states and multiple languages’, and ‘India has a lot of different traditional

festivals and clothes’, ‘India’s food is enticing’, ‘How music and sports unites India’ were unanimous sharing. I

enjoyed this activity and hope to do more activities like this in the future for our project.
