Calligraphy Competition (12/4/2013)

Calligraphy is the most intimate, private and spontaneous means. Like a fingerprint or voice it is unique with every person. It’s the flower of man’s soul. Calligraphy is an art of putting a pen or a pencil on proper paper and then accurately removing it. It has been called ‘the art of beautiful writing’. It teaches to take patience and develop patience. It also helps to be elegant and be focused. Calligraphy takes respect for the tool and the ink. It involves correct formation of characters, ordering of the various parts and the harmony of properties.

On 12^th April 2013 Calligraphy competition was held for the class I to V. All the students participated in the competition. It is well said that beautiful writing requires skilled hands so we could see our little kids putting all their effort to make their writing ‘the best’. The competition developed competitive spirit amongst the students.

Winners:

1^st – Rithwik Rayani

2^nd – Sai Prajwal

3^rd – Aarti Kogra

 

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM (9/4/13)

There was an educational program on Animal Welfare initiated by Blue Cross of Hyderabad, in Orchids on April 9, 2013. It aimed at advocating prevention of cruelty to animals while helping to understand nature and animals. The organization really raises its voice for those who can’t speak asserting five freedoms the animal friends deserve- Freedom from hunger and thirst, pain and suffering, fear and distress, injury and disease and freedom to express normal patterns of behaviour. The program also clarified the myths and realities of snakes.

It was a humane education exemplifying compassionate treatment of animals.

‘We can stand up for animals every time we sit down to eat’.
