Dear Parents,
A whole year gone by, here we are sharing the last fortnight that we have spent with your children. Thank you so much for being part of all the endeavours throughout the year. We indeed value all your partnership this year which has made a lot of experiences worthwhile.
We have spent the last few days closing the loop for the whole year through revisiting all the beacons through different languages of learning. We reflected upon the year gone by and saw that we have indeed changed and grown in our own ways through the ‘Çhanged I Have’ format. Here we were able to do this with peer and teacher feedback also.
The children have been able to pick their most memorable moments of the year through photographs. This they have put into a PPT to share in the SLC. Equal amount of work has gone into clocking the year in their CV’s. The evidence files that also show their work was also organised. Please do applaud them when they share it all with you.
We culminated our doing good congloms in different groups and grade 6 buddies lead the congloms. They spun a yarn in the form of a story that had the doing good component in it. Finally we took away that ‘Doing Good’ is not only when we come to school or when we are associated with some NGOs but it lies in the smallest of the deeds that we do. Please do encourage them during summer vacations to continue doing good.
Food Web: students did a research and came up with different articles that talk about how man's mindful actions can change the story of imbalance in nature. It can create a positive impact on the food web and can change long term negative effects to positive ones. We debated the pros and cons of each story and how it will matter in the long run or not.
Food for thought was how each one can make an impact even a small one to better the future to everyone through reduce, reuse and recycle. We listened to a song 3R’s and watched a video about this which got us thinking. We also watched an animation of Charlie and Lola about the same idea.
In totality it’s been a great fun filled year with loads of doing good and doing well. Kudos to all of us. Have a great holiday.
For further queries please get in touch with us.
Regards,
Itchha and Mira
