GRADE 1B U O I – I LIKE MYSELF
During our current UOI Myself , the kids
became aware about their personal abilities,
interests, strengths and weaknesses and
gave an oral presentation on ‘I Like Myself’.
The 3R's are at the heart of the ‘Go Green’ global movement. All of us, whether a public organization, private
enterprise or individuals in our own homes, need to manage resources more sustainably. The world’s resources
are not infinite, and it is widely recognized that all of our activities today are contributing to climate change. It is
scary to note that people in 2050 will only have 25% of the resources per capita that people in 1950 had.
Therefore, the only way we can support future populations is by using our resources more efficiently.
Thinking green means being aware of our interconnectedness with the world and reflecting on the unintended
damage we cause nature in the daily course of our lives. Thinking green leads to acting green - taking corrective
action to make environmental responsibility a reality.
On 21st August 2015, as a part of 1stUOI, students of grade 4A & B decided to do different activities in their
classes, in order to be a part of this Global Movement- Reduce, Recycle and Reuse. Take a look at the pictures
and reflections to see the little ones contributing towards a big cause.

Students of grade 4A learned to make paper bags as a part of UOI and
focused on ‘Reusing’ paper bags.
I enjoyed this activity a lot. I learned to reduce, reuse and recycle. I told my neighbors and friends, when
they come over to my place, I will teach them to make paper bags. My mom took one of the paper bags I
made and uses it to shop light items.
- KeyanaMarfatia 4A
I had a lot of fun doing this activity. We learned to reuse things. Instead of using, plastic bags, we learned to
use paper bags. So we did this activity to use these paper bags to Reuse newspapers.

REAL RAKSHA BHANDHAN AT RCITY MALL
MYP
On 28 Aug 2015, happiness, joy and laughter filled the floors of R CITY MALL when we students
from Grades 7 and 8 went to design our own RAKHIS for students from Tarang School. This was
marked as a part of our SERVICE AS ACTION ACTIVITY. We made small groups and started with
our RAKHI making! The glow we saw on all the faces, especially of those students is a memorable
one! While we were making the RAKHIS one young man entertained us by his fantastic dance!
Once, we all had tied our RAKHIS, we were served with pizzas and doughnuts to wash them down
with juice!
A wonderful and learning experience for all of us and feel proud of being a part of this activity! We
look forward to meet those students once again to share what we have. On this special day, we
understood the exact meaning of what it is to be CARING and OPENMINDED!
Thank you teachers for this wonderful experience! We welcome to socialize like this!

OUR LIBRARY GETS A NEW FACE LIFT
O
n 25 Aug 2015, I attended a workshop on "ADVANCE KOHA" organized by Tata Institute of Social
Science (TISS), Mumbai.
In the "Seminar on Advance Koha” they covered the following areas:
Implementing advance functionalities of Koha in academic and corporate libraries
Institutional perspective on Koha
Koha on Cloud - Features and functionality
Digital integrated library solutions
The session was very informative and I gained knowledge about how radio-frequency identification helps to make a
digital library. I was given a CD on Koha software and I-Scholar e resources membership card.
I like to thank the Management and the Coordinators for giving me this opportunity.

LEARNING OUTSIDE OUR CLASSROOM
2015-16
MYP
On 23 Aug 2015, we students from Grades 9 and 10 were escorted by Mr Lester D’Souza and Ms
Sunitha Manambrakat to visit SAGAR UPVAN, a botanical garden and this really took our learning
outside the classroom. Now, we really understand how to embrace the flora and fauna into our
routine. We were surprised to know that this was indeed a dumping ground before it was turned into a
marvellous green wonder!
We had never seen this botanical garden so far and the fact that none of us had ever really visited this,
made this field trip even more interesting. We could relate it to plant nutrition and ecosystems
(because of the greenhouse) with our lessons on botany. Also, we saw rare medicinal plants used in
'Ayurveda'. The birds’ chirping is still reverberating in our hearts! Those lovely shades of green all over,
makes me revisit this garden!

Here, we also came to know the different types of plants which are used in our daily lives like turmeric and
cinnamon. Beautiful green lawns and mounds, with sea facing benches, under the canopy of Samudraphal
trees; this tranquil piece of land commendably blocks out all the traffic noises. The sea breeze that cruises
through one edge of the garden fills the air with a salty fresh fragrance. There are neatly paved walking tracks
all through the garden and one can lie down in the green lawns if you need to catch up on your sleep! There
are hundreds of plants in the garden with special sections. The bright green fluorescent leaves and purple
flowers of Durante plant attract loads of butterflies.
One more visit will be a bonus!

SCHOLASTIC BOOK EXHIBITION
Month
2015-16
MYP
The MYP library was the venue for the Scholastic book exhibition
from 21st till the 28th of August. There were a wide variety of books
displayed ranging from comic books to novels, educational books to
quiz books and many more. So , if anyone liked a book they could buy
or subscribe for it in order to pursue their interests in the genre of
books of their choice. The books on display were recommended for
ages 11- 14. I thought the book exhibition was great; there were so
many books which I was interested in!
