Pause to Ponder

‘A Teacher affects eter-

nity ; he can never tell

where his influence

stops.‟ Indeed, the

teacher has the greatest

influence in shaping

young minds just as the

sculptor gives shape to

clay, across all ages and

the world over. Apart

from immediate family,

teachers are truly the

second largest influence

on the lives of children,

building in them core

values of compassion

and generosity along

with imparting the nec-

essary life skills. Thus

the teacher-student bond

is one of the most pre-

cious bonds cherished

by both teacher and

student.

Teacher‟s Day was celebrated with great enthusiasm and zeal on 5th September 2019 as a

mark of tribute to Dr. S.Radhakrishnan and the revered teachers of the school. The pro-

gramme began with the auspicious havan followed by the assembly where students from

classes 1 to 12 presented a potpourri of entertaining skits, foot tapping dances and melodious

music to celebrate the occasion. The highlight of the programme was an audio visual presen-

tation where the alumni of the institution shared their priceless memories of their teachers and

the school through its 20 year long memorable journey.

Dear Students,

‗गुरुर्ब्रह्मागुरुर्वरष्णुगुररुरे्दवोमहेश्वरः गुरुसाक्षातपरर्ब्ह्मा तस्मैश्रीगुरवेनमः’

Meaning :Guru is the Creator (Brahma), Guru is the Preserver(Vishnu),

Guru is (Maheshwara), Guru is the absolute (singular) Lord himself, Salutations to that Sri

Guru!

Indeed, the Guru Shishya bond is the most revered of all the ties that connect one human

being to another apart from the parent-child bond. It would not be wrong to say that a

teacher is perhaps the only one outside family who takes pride in every success and each

milestone achieved by the child and shares his/her disappointment and anxiety before every

test. Teachers are ideal role models as they influence the young lives in their care by setting

an example through both word and deed and take the responsibility of moulding a child's character at each and every step. Dear Students, cherish this loving bond with

every teacher who touches your life in some way or other. Give your teachers the respect they

deserve, because they are the ones who can help you get where you need to go.

PRINCIPAL‘S MESSAGE


MY TRAVEL EXPERIENCE IN EUROPE

RUSHIL RAZDAN XII-D

A Memorable Trip to London: As soon as I landed in London, I could feel

the cold breeze against my face. The air was much cleaner as compared to

Delhi. It is definitely a great place to beat the Indian heat during summers.

When we landed, it was almost 10:00 pm in the night but still there was light

all around as if it was evening time.

Hyde Park and Royal Albert Hall : On the first day we went to the world-famous Hyde

Park. It is the largest royal park in London covering 350 acres. One can see

Londoners cycling, having a picnic or jogging in the park. This park was ear-

lier a hunting ground used by the royal families but was converted into a park

in the 19th century. This park has many beautiful integrated monuments

sculpted seamlessly into the park such as the royal Albert monument. It is a

beautiful park and a must visit for every tourist. Just across the road is the

famous Royal Albert Hall. It is a concert hall. The first Indian to perform at

the Albert hall was Lata Mangeshkar, who gave a performance in 1974.

Buckingham Palace : Probably the most well-known tourist place in London

which no one can miss. The magnificent palace is the home to the queen. We

were lucky enough to see the royal guards change at the gates of the Bucking-

ham Palace. The royal building behind the gilded gates was a structure to be-

hold. It is truly a place worthy for the queen. During our short stay at the front

of the palace we clicked several pictures.

London Eye : Another most visited tourist attraction in London with almost 3.75 million

visitors annually. It is the tallest observation wheel in Europe. It displays

the breathtaking skyline of London. The tall soaring skyscrapers are a

treat to behold. Each capsule can hold up to 25 passengers and takes half

an hour to complete one revolution. We were in awe, seeing such a enor-

mous tructure. The sunset view from the top of the Ferris Wheel was

truly enchanting and it was one of the most beautiful sights I had ever seen.

Madame Tussauds : Our final day in London was at the famous wax museum of Madame

Tussauds. The museum has lifelike wax sculptures of many famous personali-

ties. It is a very famous place and tourists come here for photographs with the

lifelike celebrity sculptures. This was the first ever Madame Tussauds in the

world. The place is huge and takes almost half a day to tour completely. My

one week stay in London was truly eye opening. The seamless blend of tradi-

tion and royalty is truly remarkable. London is truly a global city with one of the most well

behaved and lovely people. While boarding my flight back to Delhi from London Heathrow

Airport, I closed my eyes and relived my days in London. One advice for tourists is that the

water from the taps is completely safe to drink and is a good alternative for expensive pack-

aged water.

Role of Teach-

ers in shaping

our lives

A lot of students in the school litter in the corridors and classrooms in the recess, using

plastic wrappers, paper bits, and aluminum foil. Cleanliness is an important aspect of

every institution, but it is expected even more from a young generation well versed with

the problems of the modern world.

While children have the right to play and have fun in the recess, this habit of littering

around the school even when there are dustbins available in every classroom, and even

around the grounds, is not only s sign of disregard towards tidiness, but condescension

towards our sanitation workers and janitors as well. Every blue-collar job is hard, and no

one wishes to make a living picking up garbage. Therefore, it would be the most basic of

kindnesses on your part to respect our amazing support staff.

On a planet where governments refuse to take actions strong enough to curb carbon

emissions below the 55% we need by 2030, the least we, as common people, could do is

to try to minimize our waste production. Regardless of what you may believe, keeping a

lax and casual attitude when it comes to littering at school will, eventually, if not now,

result in disdain towards leading a plastic free life as well.

A simple solution is available, of course. Seeing as how trash cans are very common, I

find it hard to believe that the majority of students find it difficult to find them. So, next

time you find yourself deciding to throw something onto the floor, check yourself and

throw it into the dustbin first. DHRUV MEHNDIRATTA

CLEANLINESS IS NEXT TO GODLINESS

WITH GRATITUDE TO ALL TEACHERS

I still remember the first day you taught me. You intimidated me a little, but I grew to cherish your

intimidation. I remember being completely in awe of your style of teaching, with every doubt in

my mind vanishing in seconds. I remember being absolutely amazed by your patience and your

talent at controlling an entire class of 30 noisy teenagers. I remember being super scared because

this was the first time I was going to take exams in senior school, and you were always there, help-

ing me get over that fear and motivating me to work even harder. I remember being thrilled when I

found out you were going to teach me the next year as well. Thank you for always being there as a

continuous source of kindness in my life. Thank you for providing me the warmth I needed, thank

you for scolding me whenever I was going down the wrong path, and thank you for guiding me to

the right one. Thank you for comforting me when I was nervous and very scared. Thank you for

showering me with blessings all the years you taught me. I'm glad I could be your student. Thank

you for being my teacher. A very Happy Teachers‟ Day to all the teachers who deserve all the

smiles and happiness.

Here I am now,

In the Examination Hall,

There comes nervousness again,

Making me feel small.

My ground is shaking,

My heart‟s palpitating,

I feel the atmosphere

Is very intoxicating.

My mother says,

„Don‟t worry sweetheart,

You‟re going to do great!

Just keep that in your heart‟.

„Focus on the process‟,

My father says,

„Don‟t worry about the result,

And you won‟t score less‟.

But there‟s the question paper,

Problems are it‟s judging eyes,

It‟s saying, „You can‟t do it,

What they said, all lies‟.

Suddenly I wake up,

To see my book and pen,

It was all just a dream,

I have to give my paper again!

Kuhu Saha

XI- ‗G‘

Once, there was a land of wonder,

With blue lakes and booming thunder,

There was no crime, terrorism or murder,

And enough food for all in the larder.

Once, there was a land of wonder,

But the beautiful fabric was torn asunder,

By the only son who could commit as damning a

sin,

As committing his life towards destroying his own

kin.

We ruined the Earth, our mother,

And the plants and animals that were our sisters

and brothers.

We make pillars of smoke that herald our doom,

As our Creator helplessly watches the gloom.

Mudit Tiwari 9-D

The song from my heart grew louder and louder,

May the lord almighty please to decipher.

In anguishing pain they rose far above,

Leaving another memorial down on the Earth.

The soulless people had another party,

After all another person had joined their “party”.

Brainwashing people they went on with their

work,

What else had they to do on Earth?

Spreading terror, conducting massacres they had

no mercy,

Taking lives of innocents they had no courtesy.

Let alone others not even children did they spare,

Leaving bereaving mothers with the pain they

could never bear.

Oh Lord Almighty! Have some mercy,

Lend this world a power to do away with this

enormity.

Let our fellow beings stand together against this

atrocity.

Let the world be a new place to be in.

I worked hard

I honestly tried

But that didn't suffice…

Tears rolled down my eyes

I asked myself was it alright?

I looked everywhere for the little motivation inside me,

There I found that determination inside me.

That determination to prove myself again and again

That determination to fight back again

That determination to light that burning fire again,

That determination to reach my goal again

There my fighting spirit sparked again

My determination was there to bring me out of my

desperate times

My determination was there to bring me out of my hol-

low life.

There I stood aware

Nothing can stop me if I wish

Nothing is impossible if I wish

Every hurdle can be moved if I push

There were zeal and strong determination

What I needed was the true dedication

I worked hard

I tried

And that did suffice.

It‟s raining cats and dogs,

Upon us and our lives!

There‟s too much to study,

And a lot of text to learn.

How will we study?

And sacrifice all the fun?

There‟s so much tension,

So much to worry about.

Will we stay here forever?

Or will we go out?

The brain is exploding,

Will we be a slow snail?

―Save Water

Save Environ-

Once upon a time there lived a girl named Rita. She was pretty as well as greedy. All the

girls in the village did not like her. She saw a dog which was very hungry. Rita had a bun

and she was going to her house. The dog saw the bun in her hand and walked along

with her. She hid the bun and threw a stone at the dog and the dog ran away. While walk-

ing Rita's bun slipped from her hand and a donkey near her immediately ate the bun. All

the village girls laughed at her.

Morale of the story- You should always share food and things with your friends and ani-

mals. Anya Rawat

If I become the junior head girl of the school, first of all, I would be very thankful to

the teachers and my coordinator, as well as my principal Ma‟am. Being junior head

girl would mean that I would play a key role in the school community which is a re-

sponsibility that I am willing to take.

I would be approachable to all the students who might have any concerns or worries,

and I would help them to the best of my ability. I will work in a team with full confi-

dence. I will be able to balance additional activities and school work.

I will make sure, my fellow students, follow the rules and regulations of our school.

I will make a good relationship with my co-students and listen carefully what they

want. I will discuss the same with teachers and get it resolved.

I will look after the cleanliness of the school premises. If I find it inappropriate, I will

report it to the concerned in charge and take immediate action.

I will do all the tasks assigned to me, anytime, in a more proficient way.

And on the personal front, by becoming junior head girl, I would get the opportunity

to develop public speaking and leadership skills.

I will perform well in academics, sports and would definitely set an example for all the

children. At last I would like to say, that I will be a role model for all the children, and

I will feel privileged to be elected. JAI HIND.

CLASS 3 PRESENTATION

―Till taught by pain, men know no water‘s worth.‖ – Byron

To sensitize the people about the water crisis the world is facing today, a

presentation by the students of class III was showcased on 27th September 2019 in

the school auditorium on the theme ―Jal-Sa – Every Drop Counts‖.

The presentation commenced with the lighting of the lamp by our Respected Prin-

cipal, Ms. Meenu Kanwar Ma‟am and the honoured guests followed by a welcome

song. A few words of inspiration were shared by our dear Coordinator

Ms.Jasleena Kohli Ma‟am. The students emphasized the importance of water with

the help of a skit portraying the future of Earth without water wherein the life of

aquatic animals would be in danger and people would be using water ATMs to

withdraw water as per their requirements, the future where water will be used as a

gift to bless the people with on auspicious occasions. The audience applauded on

watching the scene where in future the ecstatic children of AIS, MV were shown

reaching the Moon and realizing our Founder President Sir‟s vision.`

A very poignant message was portrayed through a mime wherein the children pre-

sented how we are wasting the most important natural resource. Later the parents cheered for the mesmerizing grand finale dance performance. The presentation concluded with blessings by our respected Principal, Ms. Meenu

Kanwar Ma‟am.

-AN OVERVIEW-

JAL SHAKTI ABHIYAN-POSTER MAKING AND POWERPOINT

PRESENTATION ON SIGNIFICANCE OF WATER

A feeling of euphoria prevailed at the discovery of traces of water on the moon

by Chandrayaan- 1‟s lunar impact probe in 2008. In 2019, the Chandrayaan 2

Mission was launched by India for mapping the lunar surface for presence of wa-

ter. But the eco club had some other thoughts. They wondered that we humans

waste fresh water & use it un-judiciously creating the need for searching water

on other heavenly bodies. Why not conserve and judiciously use what we have

instead? There is always enough to satisfy man‟s need but not greed . We are

very proud of our space program but we are amazed on the plight of humans due

to freshwater scarcity.

So eco club students set out with a mission to spread awareness about „‟save-

water, save life”. We should do space exploration for the sake of curiosity. But

we should not waste the earth‟s resources so as to prevent human extinction. If

we continue to waste water we will become extinct as it is very difficult to find

another home away from home.

Our earth as seen from voyager 1 Space Craft in 1991

Famous picture: „the pale blue dot‟

We can observe that our earth is only a „pale blue dot‟ in this vast universe which

is probably the only life supporting planet in this mega cosmos. We should do

everything to save our habitat.

Director: VIKAS BEHL Reviewing the „Already Viewed‟ has always been a way of providing the people

with a wider view of options that could fulfil their aspirations for a good leisure

time, and the movie, „Super 30‟ is one of those. Filmed in the rural horizon of the

state of Bihar, Super 30 is a biopic of a life changing personality, Mr. Anand Kumar. The movie

explains his story of success, grief, alterations, values, commitment, dignity and compromises that

he had made to protect many young minds from the social hierarchy system of the society where

he not only established the foundation stone of dignity in thirty students but also in over a thou-

sand lives. Actor Hrithik Roshan convincingly portrays his aura and charm as Anand Kumar,

making the audience applaud his performance. The act performed by various supporting actors

was one of the key reasons that made the movie enjoyable, entertaining and loved by all. A cherry

on the top was the short yet the pleasing piece of actor Pankaj Tripathi as the corrupt education

minister that added a new excitement. The cinematography was highly praiseworthy where the

visuals and graphics captured all the attention and depicted the principles of science and mathe-

matics in a fun way, appealing to the audience. To cut a long story short, Anand Kumar was a

brilliant mathematician who aimed to study in Cambridge University. However, financial prob-

lems restricted him from fulfilling his dreams. After the demise of his father he was the only

breadwinner of the family and was forced to do petty jobs to earn a living. Later he started work-

ing as a teacher in a popular coaching centre. Soon he realized the irrelevance of such a business

and motivated himself to join the path of thinking for others, by preparing IIT aspirants from un-

derprivileged sections. I feel that this movie portrayed the biography of a selfless person in the

most appealing way.

Author: FREDRIK BACKMAN

This story is about a sixty year old man named Ove. He had lost his wife, Sonja.

She died of cancer. Ove didn‟t have anyone except for Sonja. His parents died

when he was very young. He even lost his best friend. Since Sonja died, Ove

had made several attempts to kill himself, but he was always interrupted. The

story starts with Ove arguing with a salesperson to get the perfect iPad for an eight year old

girl. From here the flashback starts. Ove lives alone, he has no children and his only wish is

to be with Sonja for all of his life. Ove is the grumpiest man you will ever meet. He is the

typical old man arguing that everything should be perfect and everyone should follow rules.

He would conduct early morning checks, note down the serial numbers of the cars in the park-

ing area and then cross check them again the next morning and see if any of the cars are still

there because no cars are allowed in the residential area and if there are, he would start knock-

ing on the doors. An integral part of the story are Ove‟s neighbours. They are an Iranian fam-

ily who have just moved into the U.S. country. They have no clue about anything. Ove thinks

that he is surrounded by idiots. He has such unwavering conviction about what the world

should be and a lifelong dedication to make it just so. It‟s a bittersweet heart warming tale that

will change your perception of life, it will restore the power of faith and friendship in you and

it will even make you love cats! You will laugh, you will cry, but you will come back for

more.

Dear Ma‟am, We visited the school for presentation day last Saturday. We were

impressed by the well maintained spotless school and clean auditorium.

I must appreciate the effort put in for the presentation day. I had tears

in my eyes when the students started their shlok.

Words would not be enough to praise you all. The dedication and

efforts of the teachers and students was clearly visible.

It was wonderful watching small kids performing with great

enthusiasm. The function was well organized and also managed

professionally. The best part of the function was the time management.

Music was so good and cheerful, it not only made kids dance but the

whole audience.

I would like to congratulate the entire team for putting up such a

splendid show. The theme (Bond of Love) for the presentation day was

commendable. We were able to witness the bond in all the acts. The

team work was so evident and looking forward for another wonderful

event.

Good job everyone !!! Amity rocks.. JAI HIND..
