NATURE’S WAY
NEW YEAR TIDINGS
New hope, new resolutions,
More caring, more kind,
No more fear or dismay,
I am sure my school will open without further delay.
RIDHAAN TALWAR (CLASS 4A)
Let’s take a look at nature’s way
Breathe the scent of blooming jasmine,
Feel the breeze within your hair.
The grass will poke between your toes,
Smell the flowers with your nose,
Clouds will form shapes within the skies,
And the light will flash from your eyes.
Hear the buzzing of your bees,
Climb the tallest willow trees.
Look across the meadow way,
And you may see a young deer play
Pick the daisy as they grow,
Then watch a gentle cold stream flow,
Know the sound of the water splash,
Catch it`s glimmer as a flash,
And listen to nature to tell her tale.
PAARTH RATHI (CLASS 5I)
Superb is your contribution in it all,
Harmonious is the environment here,
Omniscient being your knowledge, and
Kind is the soul who nurtures us all,
Knowledgeable infinitely you are.
Hard work, Affection and
Amazing are the results, may
Nobel be the future ahead.
ARIHAAN KAUSHIK (CLASS 5C)
AVYAAN TALWAR (CLASS 4F)
Nope. Not the fear of a ghost or a bear,
Yes, you guessed it right Exam’s tomorrow,
Surely a day filled with sorrow.
Buried under books the whole time,
Studying about pennies, rupees and dimes,
Thinking about the time in the exam hall,
It feels like I am waiting for a battle call.
Chewing almonds and drinking milk,
At the same time studying about the route of silk,
Then everything started getting hazy,
And I drifted off to sleep like a sloth who is lazy.
Next day as I received the sheet of exam,
My brain ran as fast as 26GB ram,
Surprisingly I knew all the answers,
I seriously felt like dancing with a Group of dancers.
PRITHA GHOSH (CLASS 7B)
For each time someone says sorry
I think you need to hurry…
…to say that’s its ok
There’s nothing to worry
All I need you to know is that forgiveness
is a gift
never treat like a dayshift
MINISHKA AGARWAL (CLASS 7B)
To fulfill the wishes and dreams I have made.
You can make someone’s day by saying a word of kindness
Or showing a lonely man the much needed gentleness
I pride myself in surrounding myself with everyone merry
And looking forward to tomorrow even if it gets dreary
I’m grateful for having my family and friends for support
As success without love and happiness is equivalent to
failure and more
But scaling this journey makes it all worth while
The long road to happiness I take ,
So that I find myself in a much better place.
DEVYANSHI GOSWAMI (CLASS 8E)
THE ROAD TO HAPPINESS
THE HUMAN’S LAIR
Waking up in a daze, Emeralds growing in the garden. Golden barks
gleaming, As I try to blink out the haze. Looking up the sky is
Sapphire, The Sun a Topaz glare. Opals raining down on me, As I
breathe diamond air. But something is unnatural, Something doesn’t
make sense. I blink and blink again, Try to blink out the haze.
Finally, I break away from the daze, And see nothing but decay. The
beautiful treasure fair I saw, Was ruined by human’s lair.
MALLIKA NOOR CHAUHAN (CLASS 11 i)
I stand in front of a mirror
And I do not see myself,
Since I don’t know who I really am.
I hunt for myself,
I see brown flesh
And so I ripped it apart, Bit by bit
Until the layer that wanted to feel worthy, fell
And got flushed into the drain.
When I wanted to hop and play
I was forced to learn how to earn money
And instead of using that opportunity to do both?
I skinned all the layers.
To the point where I had no hopes,
No aspiration to gather gold
Or to nurture my kids and grow old.
I, sat and cried.
A silhouette of life.
It bashed, loud and clear.
But from all the shedding
I had no ears to listen, no hands to open the door
And my hamstrung and wild tongue
Had lost its capacity for speech.
I am my worst enemy.
My thoughts continued to haunt me,
Round and round.
Until I realized that the path was to move forward.
My relentless cries of “why me”
Were like melody to my mind,
But no they were not.
I had locked myself behind the bars of self-loathing,
When really it was self-victimization.
And I have the power to fix this,
I am my own best friend.
And again I stand in front of the same mirror,
And I see nothing.
It shouted happily at me
Because it knew a little girl ruined it
She broke her mind’s cage and flew.

Certains disent que le monde se terminera par le feu,
Certains disent dans la glace.
De ce que j'ai goûté au désir
Je tiens à ceux qui préfèrent le feu et la glace.
Mais s'il devait périr deux fois,
Je pense que j'en connais assez sur la haine
Dire ça pour la destruction de la glace
Est aussi une sorte de haine
Et serait sûrement le même

The legendary Kobe Bryant rightly said that great things come from
hard work and perseverance, with
no excuses. Following this, the school had organised a week-long
online fitness week program called
“Spardha” for Grades I to IV. All the students were encouraged to
participate in fun and challenging
activities involving kinaesthetic skills and emphasised upon the
benefits of physical exercises to follow
a healthy routine. All classes were given a video of their
respective activity to be practiced made by the
sports teachers. In Grade I, the students participated in One Leg
Hopping Challenge where the
students were called in a group of 6 and were asked to hop on one
leg for 30 seconds. In Grade II, the
students participated in Balancing with Lemon and Spoon Challenge
where children were asked to
hold a spoon in their mouth with a lemon placed on it, spread their
arms, and stand on one leg while
still maintaining balance of the lemon on spoon for 30 seconds. In
Grade III, the students participated
in Speed Bounce Challenge where they tapped a soft ball with a book
without letting it fall for 30
seconds. The activity aimed to develop eye- hand co-ordination,
postural control and better
concentration in the students. In Grade IV, the students
participated in Speed Hopping Challenge
where they rolled out a towel and kept it beside them on the floor.
At the blow of a whistle children
started jumping over the towel for 30 seconds. The event was
supervised by our Senior Co-ordinator,
Ms. Sumity Kapoor, Academic Co-ordinator, Ms. Parvathi Subramanian,
Class Teachers of Grades I to IV

great zeal and enthusiasm.

great learning experience for everyone.
SERVICE LEARNING PROGRAMME—GRADE VIII
Amity wants the students to move away from a "charity mindset" and
develop a "social justice mindset." Students of Class 8
participated in a service-learning project. Through this project,
students tried to achieve real objectives for the community and
developed deeper understanding and skills for them- selves. The
goal of initiating this service-learning project was to make
connections between course topics and real-world issues, values and
beliefs. Students achieved a greater sense of efficacy, identity,
spiritual growth, greater interpersonal development, particularly
the ability to work well with others, and build leadership and
communication skills. Variety of topics were undertaken by students
includ- ing Road safety awareness, Basic first aid learning, Good
Nutrition and say no to Obesity, Cleanliness is next to Godliness,
program for underprivileged children to generate awareness about
important as- pects of the city-e.g.: important landmarks, tourist
places, places of historical importance etc. Various programmes
were organized online for under privileged students like-Online
Antakshari, Mythological play, Eklavya- Drama was showcased to
inculcate the values of Guru Shishya Parampara. Students learnt
compassion as well as composition. Students thanked School
Principal, Mrs. Arti Chopra and Head Mistress Mrs. Ranjana Sharma
