Reflections EKA Decennial Edition
Every journey is a revelation to several stories, one that involves the individual, the family and the community at large. In this ensemble of exciting tales, parenthood is a distinct chapter, perhaps the most challenging, but also the most interesting. This brings us stories galore, stories that comfort, stories that put forth challenges, stories that tickle us, stories that offer perspectives, stories through which we learn, unlearn and relearn, all leading towards diverse explorations.
At Shiv Nadar School we have always held the child at the centre of all that we do, we also hold the relationship that we share with the larger community with utmost reverence. This valued partnership has created space for some invaluable experiences and engagements. As we cross the ten-year mark, this edition of Reflections-Eka is a testimony to the richness of the shared experiences through these years. The stories and the reflections in this edition have enriched us through these last ten years with their intensity, depth and meaning.

Math-o-Magic
A famous mathematician once said, “Mathematics is the most beautiful and most powerful creation of the human spirit.” To celebrate the spirit of mathematical learning and to commemorate the Birthday of Srinivasan Ramanujan, the Middle & Senior School of Shiv Nadar School, Faridabad celebrated the Mathematics Day – “Math-o-Magic '' on 22nd December 2021. The students excitedly participated in various games and activities and experienced a day immersed in Mathematics.
To begin the day, a presentation was showcased by the teachers to share the significance of the Mathematics day and discourse on the life and achievements of the Mathematician Srinivasan Ramanujan. A special assembly was organised by the students of Grades 7 and 8 to throw light on the importance of mathematics in day to day life. The assembly recognised the contributions of Indian mathematicians in the field of mathematics. A student-led classical dance performance showcased various patterns of symmetry and asymmetry. The skit - “Life of Pie” portrayed mathematicians from Archimedes to Euler to Lindeman derive different values of pie and come to a conclusion that, the number π is a mathematical constant, is approximately equal to 3.14159. Various rounds of Math quizzes kept students engaged and excited. A student composed and performed ‘Math Rap’ which was appreciated by the audience.
Grade 9 students hosted ‘Math Tambola’ for Middle-school students. Students had to solve mathematical questions to play the game. Middle school students showcased their creativity through ‘Scenery with Tangrams’ Activity, ‘Rangometry’ Activity and ‘Logo Making & Designing’ Activity.
The purpose of the Maths Day was to illuminate the importance of mathematics in an enriching and joyful manner
Congratulations on Provisional Asteroid discoveries by students
Congratulates to our students on their Provisional discoveries of asteroids during the April 2021 STEM & Space Asteroid Search Campaign!
The meritorious student discoverers from your school are the following who were in 4 teams:
- Ishaan Chauhan
- Krishay Chadha and Raghav Garg
- Paarth Agnihotri, Manav Harsana, Swinzal Taneja
- Veer Mendiratta, Aarav Kathuria
This is a remarkable achievement for our students, which they have achieved with their diligence and hard work.
STEM & Space conducted a highly specialized monthlong project in May-June 2020, in collaboration with the international group International Astronomy Search Collaboration (IASC), affiliated with NASA.
Under this project, students were trained and guided by STEM & Space to look through real images from the Pan Starrs telescope in Hawaii, and search for asteroids. Many of the students found asteroids which were listed as preliminary discoveries, and we are proud to share that 30 such discoveries by various schools under our campaign of these have now been confirmed as provisional asteroid discoveries by the Minor Planet Catalog (MPC), and will be formally recorded.
Asteroid discoveries with provisional status are maintained in the MPC database for many years, until there have been a sufficient number of observations to fully determine the orbit. That process typically takes 6-10 years, at which point the asteroid is numbered and cataloged by the International Astronomical Union. Numbered asteroids can be named by their citizen scientist discoverers.
