PTM & Book Fair (21/7/12)

USSR Week (16-20/7/12)

‘Reading is to the Mind, what Exercise is to the Body’. Reading is like depositing money in a savings account. The benefits compound themselves like interest’. Who can question the pleasures and benefits of the most dignified human relaxation – Reading?

Orchids insists on USSR (Uninterrupted Self Sustained Reading) periodically when each student of every class gets engaged in reading during a specified time. It is a pleasure to watch the productive silence of reading spread in each and every class. This is followed by a book fair. The entire school is involved in it.

Mother and Child Competition (14/7/2012)

Competitions, individual or as a team, teach us much leaving an indelible impression on us. Some offer immense pleasure of participation combined with learning experience. Such is the one organized in Orchids on 14^th July, 2012.

‘Mother and Child’ formed quite an understanding team to make ‘Best out of Waste’ and  many students of classes I-X, participated in the contest cheerfully with mothers beside, guiding them to implement their plan of work efficiently on time. It was a delight to the spectators watching them at work with many things that cannot be thought useful but which went into the making of precious, artistic objects which were judged by our Principal, Mrs. Mona Mehdi who herself is an artist and our Art teacher, Mr. B. Santosh Kumar.

The outcome of the contest was the amazing merge of Beauty and Utility which could be seen in the objects materialized after the contest. What is more important- The bonding of the Mother and Child was strengthened and they carried pleasant memories of the one hour that they had spent together to compete with others. It was a delightful competition indeed!

The National Day of France (13/7/12)

In view of the second Saturday falling on July 14, French students of Orchids celebrated the National Day of France on July 13.

The morning assembly was devoted to celebrations of the National Day of France. 

Ramya Priya Donthi Reddy of class IX and Deepak J.C. of class X compered the programme which began with a PowerPoint presentation by students of class X – Sumasri kolamala and Manisha D.C. The presentation was quite informative with the details of the first storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789. That was the beginning of the French revolution that brought about radical changes in the history of France. The presentation further informed the significance of the Tricolor flag which symbolized Liberty, Equality and Fraternity for all French citizens and how the French National Day is celebrated in France.

The students of class VII brought to the stage items that constitute French breakfast. The kids of class II danced to a song of La Fontain, ‘La Fourmi et la cigale’. ‘La Marseillaise’, the National Anthem of France followed by the Indian National Anthem closed the special assembly of the day.
