Celebrated every year, this week gives a platform to all engaged stakeholders to work together in finding and implementing solutions to calibrate the recognition and inclusion in mainstream homerooms.

Strengthening the Spirit of Inclusion in times of Connected Learning
The Shiv Nadar School is committed to the creation of an equitable and inclusion based society by empowering individuals to bridge the socio-economic divide. Aligned with this school's philosophy, the parents of Shiv Nadar School Noida came forward and initiated the campaign ‘That’s what Classmates Do’. The campaign was for our neighbourhood students, to continue their learning through online classes just like their classmates.
The aim of this initiative was not to leave any child behind. The parent community, our staff and The Siv Nadar Foundation came together and contributed devices for the connected learning programme. These devices were handed over to the neighbourhood children to ensure they have access to a device and internet connection for an uninterrupted attendance, learning and equal opportunity.

Cherished Moments - Guardian’s Day
The Early Years' Father’s / Guardian’s Day celebration was a heartwarming event that beautifully honored the unique relationship between fathers/guardians and their children. The day commenced with spirited activities like "Percussion" and "Team Building," actively involving parents. The children's performances, featuring songs, rhymes, and joyful dance routines, showcased their love and appreciation. A standout feature was the collaborative co-creation takeaway craft, which allowed fathers/guardians and children to share a creative bonding experience. Feedback from fathers/guardians, including Vishrut’s Father's anticipation, Maanvir’s Father's enthusiasm for drums and clay, and Suvana’s Father's joy in dancing with the kids, encapsulated the event's essence. This heartening celebration not only strengthened familial ties but also created lasting memories, fostering a strong sense of community within the Early Years' cohort.

The “Protean” tour
The "Protean" tour
International exposure and good mentoring go a long way in shaping the budding talent of our young cricketers into tomorrow’s professionals. In our student version of the “joint military exercises”, we sent a team of 12 players under the tutelage of 2 teachers to learn and maybe teach a thing or two to the Proteas.
The Proteas or The South African Cricket Team is a team to reckon with. Their student version lived up to that repute, but our “Pride” were no less. Despite the tough competition, of the 8 matches played we won 6! The feather in the Shiv Nadar School cap was the stupendous achievement of playing matches of 40 overs. A feat applauded by the hosts and their mentors too. The hosts were represented by 4 prominent schools and 2 clubs, KZN and Chatsworth Club.
Chatsworth Club is famous for its star player AB DeVillers, a cricketing legend.
Team Shiv Nadar School was mentored by the current Director of South African Cricket Board Mr. Shaun Warner and CSA level 2 coach Mr Craig Yelverton from Ireland.
Along with the honour of playing with worthy opponents, our students also won some distinguishments, like T-shirts and caps.
Aarav Desai scored 2 centuries against The Hillcrest High School and a half-century against Chatsworth club
Sanket Agarwal scored a hattrick against Winterton Primary School.
Krishang Sehrawat earned the best wicketkeeping cap.
Siddhanth Biswal, at 11years, was the youngest player across all the teams.
Aryan Vadera scored 225 runs and took 2 wickets.
Soham Dawar scored 135 runs and took 8 wickets.
The culmination of the fortnight visit to Durban, South Africa, was the chance to play at the Oval at Petersburg, the 2003 world cup final stadium. The grand finale match was against a team of senior players, some of whom play at County level, our boys stood up to the challenge and were victorious.
All work (play) and no sightseeing would leave the tour incomplete, on their way back from Durban to Johannesburg the teams visited the Oshaka Beach jungle safari and Dolphin show. An apt end to a successful tour.
