Annual Sports Day 2023

 

On February 8 and 9, 2023, the eagerly anticipated Annual Sports Day took place amid much passion, enthusiasm, and good times. Pupils, teachers, and parents all gather together for a day of competitive exercise on sports day. While some schools decide to award medals or prizes to the winners of the different competitions, for others, simply participating is a reward in and of itself. In his opening remarks, our school's director welcomed the distinguished audience and stressed the value of sports in a student's life. The Faculties, Mr. Jamil, our Sports Head, and the Director severed the ribbon to officially kick off the event to loud applause and music. The students entered into the spirit of the occasion in a grand way. An energizing equestrian display set the tone for the rest of the events. Once the event began, the air was filled with cheering and encouragement for the young athletes.


 

 

Students from different grades including pre-primary and final-year students of DP and WACE competed in different events. The games included running events like sprints, shot put, sack race, memory games, math race, and Spoon race there were also a few activities for the teachers. A tug-of-war between parents and teachers added to the enjoyment of the day with all spectators cheering at the top of their voices for their preferred teams.



There were various winners in various contests over the course of the two days of the event, and each winner received a trophy. The yearly sports day came to a successful conclusion with much happiness and a little sadness because the fun is over. Our directors, principals, and organizers gave a speech as the program came to a close, after which they gave the students their prizes. The significance of sports day at school cannot be overstated because it is a chance to highlight extracurricular activities and show that education is about more than just scholastic success. It is also about being part of a supportive and productive community. Physical exercise is something that teachers should ensure they encourage. Indeed, they should teach learners and parents to take up healthy habits that will last them throughout their lives. And holding a school sports day can be a brilliant way to do that, particularly if the teachers themselves get involved in the races and competitions too.

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...

Inquiry on Smart Farming: Designing a Greener Tomorrow

On the 2 nd week of November, IB DP Year 1 students have come together to work in an interdisciplinary project regarding sustainable agriculture practices. The collaboration was done between the Group 3 subjects: Digital Society, Economics, Business Management and Environmental Systems and Societies. The students worked hard to conduct research and find real world examples and create different presentations regarding the various prospects of sustainable agriculture and its advancements. Sustainable agriculture is a big step for sustainable development, which prioritizes meeting the needs of this generation without compromising the next, so by studying this topic we got a better understanding of the current situation and the scope of improvements.   The Digital Society students focused on what existing technologies are helping agriculture be more sustainable and efficient, including case studies of different farms around the world.
