Glimpse into the Future of IB DP Year 2 Students

Only a few months left till Batch of 2025 completes their 2 years of the rigorous IBDP course. This has shaped them to tackle any challenges, with creativity and resilience, in their upcoming university lives. Speaking of which, the DP-2 students have been given the task to share their future university plans with the Career counsellor, Mr. Hasin Ishrak, and the DP coordinator, Ms. Pony Chacko, to further support them in their future endeavours.

The students had showcased some insightful presentations, along with their current goals and actions, their preferred universities and additional information, which portrayed their interest and diligence towards their future plans. The presentation was followed up by a question-and-answer session, but nothing to worry about! It was not an IB type question, but simple questions to further understand as to whether students are aware of their choices.

This task not only allowed students to research upon their areas of interest and set a plan for their future, but also gave an idea regarding their selected universities and what they might have to offer. With further sessions like this, the students will be set for their university journey……....that is after they complete the next challenge, The Final IBDP Exam.

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...

Inspiring Minds: A Journey of Education, Life, and Gratitude

Education is not only restricted to textbooks and classrooms; it covers a larger knowledge of life, purpose, and the pursuit of achievement.

TOK Presentation

On 16th and 17th our TOK Facilitator, Mr. Sajid conducted a practice session for the upcoming TOK Exhibition in May. The TOK Exhibition is crucial in DP, especially in the first year. It contains one third of the overall TOK grade and TOK is a core component in IB. It is essential that students are well prepared for the exhibition. For the practice session, we did not do the full run through of the exhibition. For this practice session we only had to pick one object for the prompt and theme, instead of three in the actual exhibition. We had to create a display for that one object and present it to the class and our DP Coordinator. This has been incredibly helpful for the students, because it gives us an idea of what prompt and theme we will choose. We can see if we are comfortable with the object and are good at explaining the prompt or theme. The presentation also gave us a gist of how it will be like when we present our objects in front of a huge audie...
