Shiv Nadar School, Noida - Decennial Celebrations

The Decennial Celebrations on April 9, 2022

Shiv Nadar School completed 10 years of its existence on 9th of April, 2022. It was 10 years ago, on 9th April, 2012, when the first set of parents and teachers gathered at the Circle of Love along with Mr Nadar, planting saplings and singing 'Hamaari hi Mutthi Mein' and the national anthem, symbolising our commitment to be future forward educators and nation-builders of the highest levels of excellence.

The celebrations started with entire community of Shiv Nadar School Noida gathering at the Circle of Love, where the Principal, Mrs. Anju Soni, reiterated our commitment to the values and philosophy that the school stands for. 

The occasion was graced by Swami Prem Parivartan, also known as Peepal Baba who conducted an orientation session for the essence of tree plantation. We planted trees around the school, as a commitment to the future of the planet, for cleaner air and water, but most of all, for our own happiness! The plantation drive was carried out by our oldest and latest parents, students and teachers.

Mr. Hitesh Jalgaonkar, Associate Manager – Green Spaces, HCL Harit and Mr. Ravi Sharma from HCL Foundation put up engrossing conversations around the initiatives of HCL Harit and local biodiversity and related aspects.

The school welcomed Shafali Verma, one of our own students, from the Batch of 2023 and member of the Women’s Indian Cricket Team. Shafali not only mingled with her batch mates but also very sportingly participated in the Walk the Talk Series in which she was interviewed by her peers at school, Mariya Abbas, Shafali’s batch mate and a budding footballer and Saatvik Das, a budding sports journalist from Grade 11. Arjuna Bhattacharya, outgoing CGC Prefect 2021-22 felicitated Shafali by presenting a portrait of Shafali made by Diya Gupta of grade 8.

The Parent Partnership Office inaugurated the Decennial Edition of Reflections EKA – a collection of parents’ reflections, experiences and stories. The staff carried back a sapling to mark their commitment towards earth mindedness.     

The Decennial Celebrations had a befitting finale to the day by practicing Mindfulness all together in a session conducted by the Ahimsa Trust, a practice so dear to each one at Shiv Nadar School Noida.

Sci-Verse-2022-Mini Science Week

“Ask the right questions and nature will open its doors to her secrets”.

 

Taking forward the essence of this famous quote by C.V. Raman, Shiv Nadar School,Faridabad organized ‘Sci-Verse-2022’ from 14th-16th March,2022. The event took off with the activity  ‘I spy Science’ on 14th March for Grades 6-8 in which students were given a glimpse into the Scientific Method so as to familiarize them with the approach to experimentation, data collection and analysis, etc. They immersed themselves into designing experiments, conducting surveys and presenting their findings with a fervor that tells us what a brilliant future they have ahead of them.

 

The next day i.e.15th March began with a Science Assembly conducted by Grade 8 students that marked the ‘National Science Day’ in honor of Sir C.V. Raman’s discovery of the Raman Effect on 28th February,1928. The theme for this year - Integrated approach in Science and technology for a sustainable future - was well represented when students talked about Ancient India and Science, Contribution of Indian Scientists to the world of STEM and futuristic sci-ideas such as ‘Digital Twins tracking Health, Nanorobots, Sweat-powered Smart Watches’ etc.

The assembly was followed by ‘The Green Design Challenge’ where Grade 6-8 students engaged in ideating about a sustainable alternative for a daily life unsustainable product and created innovative,thoughtful ads for their sustainable products. It was exhilarating to see our upcoming world leaders working together towards a greener,safer environment.

 

Sci-Verse culminated on a high with ‘Sciencathon-2022’ i.e. the Interhouse Science Quiz Competition on 16th March enjoyed by the middle and senior school alike. Students from Grades 6-10 from each house participated in the Lap Round,Visual Round and Rapid Fire Round where the Tigers and the Lions moved on to the Finals while the Panthers and the Leopards remained runner-ups. The audience was enraptured in the final Buzzer Round also witnessed by our esteemed Principal Ms. Anju Wal as each house showcased their scientific prowess. Finally, the Tigers emerged victorious with the Lions evading triumph only by 5 points.

 

All three days of the Sci-Verse kept the students and teachers immersed in the world of Science,Technology,Sustainability and, most importantly, Hope for a Better Tomorrow.

Sci-Verse truly achieved what  Bill Nye rightly said, There's nothing I believe in more strongly than getting young people interested in science and engineering, for a better tomorrow, for all humankind.
