Annual Day
The Anchoring team had a blast at the school's big annual event! The anchors recalled the thrill of guiding everyone through the show. We cheered on performers, cracked jokes to keep spirits high, and made sure the audience was having a great time. Sharing stories, we laughed about the bloopers and cheered about the successful moments, like when the crowd roared at our silly skits. Backstage, we were a tight-knit group, helping each other with last-minute changes and encouraging nervous teammates, being anchors taught us how to be confident speakers and supportive teammates. It was an unforgettable experience that brought us all closer.

Parents-Teacher Meeting- Nursery
"Exploring Animal Movements: A Fun Path to Learning and Growth"
PTM was held on 9th December for the class Nursery. All students were engaged in a vibrant activity mimicking various animal movements, fostering not just fun but also crucial developmental skills. This interactive session encouraged children to imitate different animals, from hopping like rabbits to crawling like caterpillars promoting concentration, coordination between limbs, and physical fitness.
Jyotsana Mali / Educator
Time
Time is one of the most important things in our life. It is very precious for humans. The past does not come back. Time is very crucial to every person in life. The hard work we do in the present decides our future it is more precious than money. Over time we learn about our mistakes and we can gain experience about our mistakes. A human life is very short about sixty years in that we waste our time. Time is one of the best teachers in life. It teaches us patience, consistency, perseverance, hard work, etc. No matter how hard you try to push some things, they will only happen in time. Perseverance requires time and dedication for a person to persevere. When we waste our time it gives nothing and takes all those things that we have. The use of time is a very good thing in life. To be successful, and grateful, etc in our life takes time but when we give time to hard work, goals, our aims, etc. It gives a very big amount of success, enjoyment, learner and helps in future. Give time for your goals. It will give you success.

Unsung Heroes of the Annual Day

Yashi Soni / IX
Every school organizes an annual function, and I want to share my experience with the ongoing preparations in the middle section. This includes two dance performances, a play, and a song, with all teachers, including dance and subject teachers, playing crucial roles. Teachers are maintaining discipline, and this year, the exhibition format has shifted to resemble an exam for UT-3. In addition, there are two plays performed by middle and senior section students. A noteworthy innovation is the recording of students' voices for the play, allowing for lip-syncing during performances. This clever use of technology helps students overcome nervousness and ensures a polished presentation. Overall, the preparations are going well, and I am proud to be a part of this wonderful school.

 Parents-Teacher Meeting- LKG 
The LKG parent-teacher meeting emphasized emotions and number skills. The goal was to foster collaboration between parents and teachers in discussing children's development in these key areas. The session started with parents participating in discussions about understanding their child's emotions. Teachers shared insights on classroom activities, like storytelling and role-play, aimed at boosting emotional intelligence.
The second part of the PTM focused on the "Game of Numbers." Parents learned about innovative ways the school incorporates math concepts into daily activities. Teachers showcased engaging games and activities to make learning numbers enjoyable for LKG students, aiming to cultivate a positive attitude toward math. 
Parents received individual progress reports highlighting academic and emotional development. Teachers provided specific feedback on each child's strengths and areas for improvement, promoting a holistic understanding of the child's well-being. The PTM emphasized collaborative efforts between parents and teachers, discussing strategies for reinforcing learning at home, supporting emotional development, and addressing any concerns.
The PTM ended on an optimistic note regarding children's growth in emotions and numerical understanding. Parents gained a better understanding of their child's expressions in the classroom and valuable insights for fostering a positive learning environment at home. The PTM strengthened the bond between parents and teachers, showcasing the school's commitment to holistic child development. The themes of emotions and the game of numbers effectively addressed both cognitive and emotional aspects of early education.
Archana Purohit & Dimple Kunwar / Educator
 Parent-Teacher Meeting - UKG 
On 30th November, the UKG PTM event unfolded at The Fabindia School's Pre-Primary section, showcasing the remarkable involvement of parents. This marked the initiation of a fresh perspective on PTM at our school. The parents expressed immense satisfaction, witnessing their children confidently read and construct English sentences on the board during the Parent-Teacher Meeting (PTM). As parents delightedly observed their children independently working on worksheets, joy knew no bounds. This PTM marked the third occasion where parents had the privilege of witnessing their children's performances. Post-PTM, parents conveyed that their children's confidence levels had significantly surged. Grateful for this enriching experience, we extend our heartfelt thanks to The Fabindia School.
Pinkee Chauhan / Pre-Primary Coordinator

 Experiences 
She said that her child is showing improvement in studies and other activities. Her child has also become more confident. She was feeling very happy in PTM because her child is getting good marks and the teacher's behavior and the way they teach their children is truly wholesome.
Krishnalata Singh Raj Purohit M/O Ruzal Singh Rajpurohit

She said that she likes the things that are happening in their class. She is quite enjoying the annual day preparations, especially the dance. She is very excited about the annual day and seems to be out of patience for it.
Viya / UKG

What is the reason for choosing this theme "Emotions"
She told us students should know how to express their feelings. When we fail to express our emotions that often makes us feel anxious, melancholic, or depressed. We are taught about languages, science, and history but still, emotions are a less discussed subject. This has led many individuals to wrestle with emotional issues, anger being the most common of them.
Archana Purohit / Educator

What is the reason behind conducting these activities? 
Children understand more quickly if we make them learn through visual activities. When they see, they understand quickly. For example, We created a wheel containing the names of the days in a week. Before this students had a hard time memorizing them. But now, students can easily tell us which day of the week.
Asha Kunwar / Eucator
 Guest Visitors 
Today, 9th of December 2023, we had some delightful guests from the Centre for Learning (CFL)school which is situated in Bengaluru. They were students of classes 11th and 12th. While exploring the school, they stepped into our classroom and addressed us. We started chatting and they told us about their school and the things they usually do in their school. Then they asked us to play the games which They had learned after coming here. We played numerous games and took the joy in.

 Olympiad 
The Hummingbird Olympiad Exam was conducted this week. A total of 162 students participated in this exam. The exam was conducted in different subjects like English,  Hindi,  Mathematics, Science, Aptitude and Reasoning, Computer, General Knowledge and Spell Bee. Students from Class I to XI participated in this exam.

 The dynamic Will power 
The mind is the creator of everything. You should therefore guide it to create only good. If you cling to a certain thought with dynamic willpower, it finally assumes a tangible outward form. When you can employ your will always for constructive purposes, you become the controller of your destiny. Carrying a thought with dynamic willpower means holding it until that thought pattern develops dynamic force. When a thought is made dynamic by will force, it can manifest according to the mental blueprint you have created. Proper visualization by the exercise of concentration and willpower enables us to materialize thoughts, not only as dreams or visions in the mental realm but also as experiences in the material realm.
Yashoda Choudhary / XI
 Board Exams 
Whoa, the 10th board exams feel like the Olympics of school tests! They're this big, official deal that decides a chunk of our academic future. It's like the World Cup of exams – loads of pressure and stress! Normal exams throughout the year? Meh, they're like practice rounds for the big game. They matter, but not as much as those board exams everyone talks about non-stop!  Everyone has started to prep for the big game. Dude, prepping for board exams is like diving into a marathon of studying! It's intense—books piled up, notes everywhere, and endless revision. Can't forget the crazy pressure from parents and teachers, too! It's all about memorizing, understanding concepts, and doing a gazillion past papers. Stressful, yeah, but got to hustle hard 'cause these exams can seriously shape our future, you know?
Tanishka Suthar / X
 Students Today: Busy and Adaptable 
Life for students is hectic! They've got school, friends, and tons of digital stuff to handle. Information is everywhere, which can be a bit much. Managing schoolwork while staying mentally healthy is a big deal. Technology helps with learning but can also be a bit distracting. Doing well matters, but feeling good does too. Learning with others and being able to adapt are super important skills. Even with all the craziness, today's students are tough and smart, making their way to a cool future."Are you a student? Because like them, you're weaving determination and ambition into a beautiful canvas called life."
Vinay Raj / XI
 हँसी एक वरदान 
कुछ वरदान केवल मानव को ही मिले हैं। हँसी भी ऐसा ही एक वरदान है मनुष्य खुश होता है तो हँसता है। परंतु पशु कभी नहीं हँसता। वह हँस भी नहीं सकता। कुछ लोग स्वभाव से बहुत कठोर होते हैं। उन्हें हँसना बहुत कम आता है। हँसी तनाव को कम करती है। हँसने से हृदय खिल उठता है। हँसने वाले का चेहरा सुंदर हो जाता है। हँसते हुए को देखकर लोग भी हँसने लगते हैं । हँसी प्रसाद की तरह अनेक गुना होकर बढ़ती है। इसलिए मनुष्य को हँसने का कोई भी मौका छोड़ना नहीं चाहिए। यह है जिंदादिली की निशानी है। किसी बात पर हँसना तो ठीक है किंतु किसी की कमजोरी व बुराई पर हंँसना ठीक नहीं है, किसी मनुष्य की हँसी नहीं उड़ानी चाहिए। इसका प्रभाव उल्टा हो जाता है। जीवन में हमेशा हंँसमुख रहना चाहिए।

30 नवंबर को हमारे  विद्यालय में वार्षिक प्रदर्शनी का आयोजन किया गया ।उसमें हमारी कक्षा के सभी विद्यार्थियों ने भाग लिया । चलिए इसमें मेरे सफर के बारे में हम जानते हैं इस प्रदर्शनी के माध्यम से हम लोगों ने बहुत शैक्षणिक अनुभव प्राप्त किया।हम लोगों को हमारा ज्ञान हमारे  परिजन व आए हुए अतिथियों के सामने प्रस्तुत करने का मौका मिला । प्रदर्शनी के लिए मैं बहुत उत्साहित थी। प्रदर्शनी में हम सब ने बहुत रचनात्मक कार्य किया और हम सब ने समूह मे मिलकर कार्य किया । इससे मुझे अनुभव हुआ कि एक- दूसरे के साथ मिलकर कार्य करने से काम में आने वाली कठिनाइयों आसानी ने हल किया जा सकता है । मुझे प्रदर्शनी के माध्यम से अपने अंदर के कलात्मकता का आदान- प्रदान करने का अवसर प्राप्त हुआ। हम सब को अपनी तैयार के लिए पर्याप्त समय नहीं मिल पाया और जब मेरे साथी मेरे साथ सहयोग नहीं कर रहे थे, तो मुझे थोड़ी - बहुत कठिनाईयों का अनुभव हुआ। लेकिन हमारे आदरणीय अध्यापकगण ने उन कठनाईयों को भी बहुत सहजता से दूर कर दिया । अंत में मै यहीं कहना चाहती हूँ कि यह शैक्षिक यात्रा बहुत आनंददायक रही ।

 Mother 
A word too vast to be put in six alphabets. A job that could be considered one of the hardest. But is a job even the right word for it? It’s a bond like no other, seraphic and halcyon. A bond that doesn’t require an ulterior motive. She is the bravest hero who saves us from all the pain and distress in the world. She works tirelessly yet asks for nothing. As James Joyce famously remarked, 'Whatever else is unsure in this stinking dunghill of a world, a mother’s love is not.' We all are in debt to our mothers for their love and efforts, and may we all strive to do our best to pay this enormous debt. May we shower our mothers with the love they deserve.

 Infância 
As a child, I always dreamt of accomplishing huge things, but there was always this line that I would say, 'I shall do this when I get older.' The blooming tree of curiosity faced autumn when I came of age, and soon all those dreams were long forgotten. Changing this mindset is crucial. Children can do great things too. Most modern languages have origins that came from migrant children. One could even argue that all dreams and aspirations are first imagined by the child inside us. The earliest version of the telescope was inspired by kids playing with magnifying glasses. Dostoevsky and Kafka's work were deeply affected by their childhood. I would even say that living is just letting your inner child have fun.

 National Curriculum Framework (NCF) 
Teacher's sessions/ meetings play a vital role in fostering a collaborative, informed, and supportive teaching environment, ultimately benefiting both educators and students. On November 23, 2023 (Thursday), a session was conducted by Ms. Bharti Rao and Ms. Prerna Rathod on the National Curriculum Framework (NCF). Some key points that were discussed include:
  • The framework provides the basis for creating syllabi, textbooks, and teaching practices within the school education program in India.
  • It is a policy based on earlier government reports on education, such as 'learning without burden.' The framework promotes the child’s well-balanced and harmonious development.
  • It guides teaching decisions at different stages of teaching styles in schools.
  • The session provided valuable insights into enhancing children's education by combining play-based learning, effective memorization strategies, and the integration of nature experiences.

 गुरु नानक जयंती 
गुरु नानक जयंती एक बहुत ही खास दिन है। यह त्योहार हमें गुरु नानक देव जी के जीवन और उनके सिखाए गए अच्छे कार्यों की याद दिलाता है। गुरु नानक देव जी ने हमें सिखाया कि हमें सभी लोगों के साथ अच्छे व्यवहार करना चाहिए और हमें एक दूसरे की मदद करनी चाहिए। उनका महत्वपूर्ण संदेश था "एक ओंकार", जिससे हमें यह सिखने को मिलता है कि हम सभी एक ही परमात्मा के साथ जुड़े हुए हैं। इस दिन, हम गुरुद्वारे जाते हैं और वहां पर कीर्तन गाते हैं। हम एक दूसरे के साथ प्यार भरे भावना से मिलते हैं और सिखते हैं कि हमें हमेशा सच्चे और नेक कामों में लगना चाहिए।
इस खास दिन को हमें उत्साह और आत्मविश्वास के साथ मनाना चाहिए। गुरु नानक जयंती हमें एक बेहतर इंसान बनने की मार्गदर्शन करती है और हमें सच्चे धर्म के मूल्यों का पालन करने के लिए प्रेरित करती है।

 What's beauty? 
Everyone has different beauty and unique qualities. I believe we need to learn to love our qualities and be comfortable with the fact that everyone is different. Beauty is not in the clothes we wear, the figure we carry, or the way we comb our hair. True beauty is seen in our eyes because that is the doorway to our heart, the place where love resides. It is reflected in our soul, in the caring we lovingly give and the passion we show.
The late actress and humanitarian, Audrey Hepburn, had this to say when asked about her 'beauty tips':
For attractive lips... Speak with words of kindness.
For lovely eyes... Seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure... Share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair... Let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day.
For poise... Walk with the knowledge you'll never walk alone.
People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed... Never throw out anybody.

 Benefits of Educational Tours 
Educational trips enhance students' knowledge as they encounter information not found in textbooks. Additionally, these trips often take students to locations they have never visited before. Encouraging students to document information about the places visited creates lasting memories and deepens their understanding.
These trips facilitate the learning process by introducing a change in the study environment, offering a refreshing alternative to the classroom. This change is particularly beneficial for subjects that require heightened attention, as it helps alleviate boredom and makes the learning experience more effective.
Educational trips provide students with unique experiences not available in books or purchasable with money. These experiences contribute to improved learning outcomes and offer teachers an opportunity to impart moral values. Instilling moral values is crucial for nurturing disciplined and excellent students who take pride in upholding the school's reputation within the community.
Furthermore, educational trips spark students' interest in learning, especially for those who thrive in real study environments. By materialising learning experiences, these trips significantly enhance students' learning skills and overall academic performance.

 विज्ञान और जीवन 
विज्ञान ने अलग अनेक चमत्कारिक आविष्कार किए हैं| इसने मनुष्य के लिए व्यक्तिगत, सामाजिक तथा आर्थिक जीवन में आश्चर्य जनक परिवर्तन ला दिए हैं| विज्ञान के चमत्कारों ने संसार की दूरियां समाप्त कर दि हैं| हजारों वर्षों में जो उन्नति ना हो पाई वह पिछले डेढ़ सौ वर्षों में हो गई है| आज से सौ- दो सौ  वर्ष पूर्व का मनुष्य यदि धरती पर आए, तो उसे यह काल्पनिक दुनिया लगेगी| विद्युत के आविष्कार ने रात के अंधेरों को दिन में बदल दिया, विद्युत मशीने जो काम  कई 100 लोग करते थे उसे पल भर में कर देती हैं| पलक चपकट ही घंटों का काम मिनटों में हो जाता है| उद्योग धंधों में उत्पादन की मात्रा बढ़ गई है| आज बड़े-बड़े उद्योग स्वचालित मशीनों से युक्त है|

We'd even sneak into the forest behind the school stage without permission.
