PRIMARY NEWSLETTER - GB 30th March 2015 “Dreams is not what you see in sleep, is the thing which doesn’t let you sleep” -A.P.J.Abdul Kalam A peek into the last fortnight….. Dear Parent, We are almost at the end of our academic year and wrapping up with all our Syllabus, Activities, Presentations and Annual events. The year has been full of action and huge learning. While the teachers are gearing up for the imminent PTM; students are all set and eager to move to the next grade! The event that has left us all ‘wanting for more…’ was the Parents’ day event which was conducted at our KP venue. The performance by our children and the cheerful response from the parents to the same has made us feel proud and happy. The message “Heal the World’ was apt as the Musical skit strongly advocated a sense of responsibility one must adopt towards the environment and our surroundings… for this world to live in harmony we humans need to learn to coexist with all the elements in the nature peacefully… Students put up a brilliant show and the parents gave us their positive and heartwarming responses generously..! As they say – “With greater power and freedom comes greater responsibility…” Let us try and make this world a wonderful place, dear parents…a little effort but we can achieve it…Amen!

Assembly Presentation .. Class 4 presented a short skit on the story of “Oliver Twist” by Charles Dickens. The story centered on a small orphan who shaped his destiny by developing a positive attitude to life and never giving up while facing hardships. The students conveyed the message through effective and convincing performances. The French presentation was conducted where the French students across classes 1-4 put up a presentation named ‘arc-en-ciel’ which means Rainbow. The term indicated that – Life is like a rainbow and it needs both Rain and Sunshine to make its colours appear..! With Colours as the theme, Class 1 students wore saches and dressed up like colourful pencils. They sang and danced to the tunes of a French song on colours. Class 2 wore masks of a blue bird and sang the ‘Alouette’ song. Classes 3 and 4 presented a comic skit based on different T.V. channels and every program was entertaining and varied- some sang songs, some showed games, some showed news and weather forecast and some showed time of the day..all of which were creatively enacted in French. The presentation was entertaining and also insightful packed with energy and humour..! Points to note….. ● Kindly pay the First Term fee for the next academic year before/on the due day.
