Coffee Meetup of 8 November 2022

On November 8, 2022, our IBDP coordinator, Dr. Ponni Chacko, organized a coffee meetup with all of the parents from DP 1. Which had a positive response, and the majority of the parents attended the Coffee meetup. It is crucial to understand that you are not required to get coffee. This is a casual meeting between two professionals outside of the office.

Typically, schools will hold coffee meetings for parents to discuss their worries about the school, the child's home life, any big changes in your family, habits, hobbies, part-time employment, religious holidays, or anything else that affects your child.

Our DP coordinator organized the coffee meetup, where she presented to all of the parents an overview of IB, including what it is, the options, the grade boundary, and much more. She thought it was vital to give the parents an update on the students' performance since she had been there for roughly two months. She also mentioned the IB review visit that we will be receiving. She also got to hear what the parents had to say about their children, how they are at home, and if they work. The coffee meetup was really beneficial because the parents and coordinator learned about both points of view, which worked out nicely.

Exploring Biodiversity: IB DP Year 2 Biology Students Conduct Line Transect Activity

Recently, IB DP Year 2 biology students embarked on an exciting line transect activity on the new school field to study plant species and soil properties. This innovative method of identifying organisms within an ecosystem involves systematic sampling at regular intervals to observe and record biodiversity along a line. Using a 10-meter rope, students examined organisms every 2 meters along the transect, identifying two plant species: Cornus serica L. and Cenchrus echinatus L. . Despite aiming to collect five soil samples for testing pH, salinity, and total dissolved solids (TDS), the experiment was interrupted by rain, limiting the collection to three samples. Another challenge was the presence of bricks in the soil, which prevented digging at one of the sites. In the lab, students measured TDS levels ranging from 18.2 to 22 ppm, salinity from 17 to 18, and pH between 7.63 and 7.68. This hands-on activity provided valuable insights into the local ecosystem within the...
