The School Weekly - 26th January 2015

Weather
This week Bali experienced erratic weather. For the first two days of the week Bali did not experience cold temperatures, the sky was clear with bright sunshine. But on Wednesday Nimbus cloud cover dominated the sky, brining cold weather with piercing chilly winds. Heavy showers on Wednesday night turned the tables to a very chilly weather. Students pin down the blame to our own very created global warming! It was no wonder to see thick fog cover on Thursday that continued till Friday. On Saturday, though the sky was clear, but the chill in the air due to North Easterlies, lowered temperatures further.

A poem is an imagination
Where we get our destination
It gives us the way of life
It shows us the path of life

It is written by heart
And give us the structure of art
A poem is a fantasy
And is very easy

A poem is of good things
Not false but true things
A poem is written by ability
Not capacity but mentality
Suryaveer Singh/VIII A

Save Earth By Planting Trees
All plants and trees are nature's gifts. We get so many things from plants. Each and every part of plant is used by us for various purposes and we know that there would be no life possible on the Earth without trees. Trees form the food-chain. All vegetarian eat plants. Non-vegetarian eat animals as food but again these animal survive by eating plants. So, directly or indirectly all of us depend on trees for food. Most of our clothes paper, rubber and medicines come from different trees. Trees clean the air that we pollute by making oxygen. They help in causing rainfall and by that they prevent us from droughts. Roots of plants hold the soil together and prevent flood. Trees give us shade provide shelters to birds and so many other animals. Nature has given us so many things through trees. So we should also protect trees. To protect trees we should aware the people of the importance of trees that how much trees are important in our life. So protect trees. Plant more and more trees.

खूब मजा आया
इस सर्दी के मौसम  में,
माँ ने बनाया गाजर का हलवा,
डाला उसमे जी भरकर मावा,
मुँह  जला फिर भी खाया,
खुशबू फैली गली-गली
पड़ोसियों को बिलकुल न भाया,
मौसम भी खूब ठंडाया,
बाजार तो लगा गरमाया,
तिल, रेवड़ी और इमरती
पालक, धनिया और मैथी,
गाजर, मूली और करेला,
भरा हुआ था मालिन का ठेला
सब्जी रोज बनाए कौन सी,
माँ को लगता है झमेला,
कभी ढोकले, कभी सोगरे
कभी बनी हल्दी की सब्जी
सक्रांति आयी, पतंगे उड़ाई
थोड़ी ढील दे-दे मेरे भाई
माँ बोली समेटो रजाई,
देखो -देखो वो गर्मी आई।

Woman Rise In The World
In the past women were treated as slaves. They were kept within the four walls of the house. Even they had no rights. No one felt happy at home on the birth of the female child. A girl even today is regarded as a burden on her parents and family.  She had to obey her husband. Even educated and modern husbands wanted them to be kept within the four walls. Now the women's position is free world has risen. The Constitution of free world gives them equal rights in all fields of life. Today in the political field women are successful as men. In the medical field also women have proved their ability. There are many women who are physicians, medical experts etc. In the field of education women are  now on the top.
If we look at the other side of women's position in the new world, they have higher opportunities. In homes and outside homes their exploitation is continuing, society needs to change its attitudes towards women. Today women can take up any career she likes. In families they are allowed to study the subjects of their choice. Choosing a good career makes a girl self dependent. Women are considered to be a burden on the world but it's difficult to imagine a world without women.

Butterfly
Butterfly is a fly.
Butterfly in the sky.
It is so beautiful,
With feathers colourful.
It is very nice,
But small in size.
From one plant to other,
Butterfly goes on further.

Good Manners
Good manners are the qualities of a person. It makes a person good and perfect. Good manners are necessary to win the hearts of others. No one likes a person without good manners. Good manners show the behavior of a person. Manners are taught in schools and houses. Good manners cannot be borrowed or bought, they are built in us. Without manners a person is like an animal. Good manners are helpful to get success in any field in our life.
Some of the good manners which we have to follow in our daily life are – one should respect one’s elders and love one’s younger. One should always smile and speak softly. One should not break discipline or not talk loudly, one should love everyone and one should be gentle and should not find anyone’s mistakes. Self discipline is a good manner i.e. we are always taught to obey our teachers, parents or any other elders, one should follow rules and regulation. “Please”, “Sorry” and “Thank You” are the three words which if used at correct time and place, can do the wonders which no other things can do. These words are helpful in making the person good mannered.
