- FOUNDER'S DAY
The School's 20th Founder's Day was celebrated on Saturday, 18th February 2017. A prayer service that remembers our Founders and Principals who have selflessly served the School in the past was held for the students the day before. Mr. S.V. Albal (Administrator and Treasurer of the Bombay Scottish Orphanage Society) and Mr. Vinod Yennemadi (CEO, Bombay Scottish Schools) joined us for the Exhibition held for parents and other invitees.
The event offered a unique opportunity for both the staff and students to share an audio-visual and verbal presentation of current classroom activities and innovative teaching methodologies with the parents. Students worked in groups to create a display that expressed their personal learning experience in relation to the current curriculum.
As a part of the function Grade 8, was provided with a platform that required the students to research, debate and discuss at current events. The students put up presentations on the need for elections in a democratic state while emphasizing on the need to cast one's vote through a deliberative street play. The next group opened the eyes of the audience to the scary but very real existence of climate change. The students demonstrated online apps that calculate carbon footprints of an individual. The dramatic choral recitation ensured that the parents acknowledged the harsh reality of climate change. Another group scrutinized the much glorified Jallikattu Debate, complete with its origin in the Rabi festival of Pongal and harmonizing/opposing views of celebrities and finally the bull's take on the entire topic. Needless to say, the audience was left wanting for more… there were some incessant requests for a repeat of the show.
Every other grade had students strengthening their communication skills and confidence as they prepared for live presentations of teaching methodologies and learning outcomes in subjects like English, Hindi, Math, Social Studies and Science. There were role plays and recitations, sociograms and collaborations, a forensic murder scene that required a thorough knowledge of Physics, Chemistry and Biology, mathematical concepts that are a part of everyday lives… All students, some as young as Grade 3 showed their comfort level in using gadgets comfortably… whether it was holding a mike or the ICT in the classrooms. The parents were encouraged to interact with our presenters and provide feedback (Some classes got the parents to do so on Google forms) on their exhibits.
Needless to say, the parents loved every moment of this new and improved way of Exhibition Day. They were a part of all the activities, games and shows designed for them and had a day in their child's lives… They realized how keen and enthusiastic their children were about learning.

They also made cards, paper flowers and hearts with a personal touch to be given to the grandparents as a token of love.
The grandparents were touched by this gesture and acknowledged their appreciation as they left for home. The children have thus learnt to value and respect the elders in their homes. It was a very happy and an emotional day for all.

- FOUNDER'S DAY
The School's 20th Founder's Day was celebrated on Saturday, 18th February 2017. A prayer service that remembers our Founders and Principals who have selflessly served the School in the past was held for the students the day before. Mr. S.V. Albal (Administrator and Treasurer of the Bombay Scottish Orphanage Society) and Mr. Vinod Yennemadi (CEO, Bombay Scottish Schools) joined us for the Exhibition held for parents and other invitees.
The event offered a unique opportunity for both the staff and students to share an audio-visual and verbal presentation of current classroom activities and innovative teaching methodologies with the parents. Students worked in groups to create a display that expressed their personal learning experience in relation to the current curriculum.
As a part of the function Grade 8, was provided with a platform that required the students to research, debate and discuss at current events. The students put up presentations on the need for elections in a democratic state while emphasizing on the need to cast one's vote through a deliberative street play. The next group opened the eyes of the audience to the scary but very real existence of climate change. The students demonstrated online apps that calculate carbon footprints of an individual. The dramatic choral recitation ensured that the parents acknowledged the harsh reality of climate change. Another group scrutinized the much glorified Jallikattu Debate, complete with its origin in the Rabi festival of Pongal and harmonizing/opposing views of celebrities and finally the bull's take on the entire topic. Needless to say, the audience was left wanting for more… there were some incessant requests for a repeat of the show.
Every other grade had students strengthening their communication skills and confidence as they prepared for live presentations of teaching methodologies and learning outcomes in subjects like English, Hindi, Math, Social Studies and Science. There were role plays and recitations, sociograms and collaborations, a forensic murder scene that required a thorough knowledge of Physics, Chemistry and Biology, mathematical concepts that are a part of everyday lives… All students, some as young as Grade 3 showed their comfort level in using gadgets comfortably… whether it was holding a mike or the ICT in the classrooms. The parents were encouraged to interact with our presenters and provide feedback (Some classes got the parents to do so on Google forms) on their exhibits.
Needless to say, the parents loved every moment of this new and improved way of Exhibition Day. They were a part of all the activities, games and shows designed for them and had a day in their child's lives… They realized how keen and enthusiastic their children were about learning.

- EDUCATIONAL TRIP
An educational trip to The Nehru Science Centre was organized by Bombay Scottish School, Powai on the 9th and 10th of November 2016 for the students of Grades 6 ,7 and 8. This trip served a dual purpose of allowing the students to de-stress and learn something new by observing the fantastic exhibits at the Museum.
As the students made their way for Discovery of India, they were handed a worksheet that would test their skill of observation . They were given clear hints in the worksheet that allowed them to identify the zones where they needed to concentrate on to solve their projects. This activity made them more alert and observant. The worksheet for the students of grade 6 was based on the Ancient period while those for grade 7 and 8 were based on the Medieval and Modern India respectively. The students found this activity to be challenging and entertaining. They not only managed to get all their answers but had ample time to visit the exhibits that appealed to them.
'Learning by doing' helped the students to grasp new concepts in a jiffy. The audio visual aids created the perfect ambience for learning to take place in a new manner. The students were eager to solve their worksheets too to do justice to their project.
The trip gave the students a perfect opportunity to unwind and accumulate information that would serve a greater purpose in their future.

- Home science - trip to Renaissance
On 27th September 2016, the School organized a practical training programme for the Home Science students of class 9th & 10th ( 29 students) at the Renaissance Hotel in Powai. It's a beautiful and large hotel with around 500 rooms and large banqueting and restaurant facilities. The kitchen of such a huge hotel has to be designed in such a way to meet its large requirements. They were shown the large utensils and the huge dough makers.
All the chefs and cooks in the kitchen had worn hair nets and gloves and the students too had to wear the same during their tour of the kitchen.
They were shown the Walk - in cooler (refrigerator) and were taken in through the same. They were briefed that a large hotel like this cannot manage with only normal refrigerators hence they have to have huge space.
Cookie Making
The students were then taken to their most favorite department - The Bakery. The chef was kind enough to allow them to help him in baking chocolate chip cookies. Each one of them were given a small portion of the dough to be made into the cookies shape as per chef's instructions. He shared with them the recipe and they also got to eat the cookies they had prepared.
All in all, the trip to the Renaissance was well worth the visit there.

DATE: 20.9.2016
TOPIC: TERRORISM
The students of 9C depicted their views on Terrorism through means of a power point presentation, skit and poem recitation.
In the presentation, they defined what Terrorism is, its types , how it is now a new method of warfare and also elaborated on the major terrorist attacks that have occurred in the recent history of various countries, and different terrorist organizations involved in these activities.
The students also highlighted the usual causes that lead to terrorism and what made people turn into terrorists i.e feelings of anger, hatred, boredom, social injustice, poverty that is exploited through misguidance and brainwashing by vested interests.
One of the students recited an emotionally charged poem which she dedicated to the 17 soldiers who were killed in the terrorist act at Uri.
Through the skit, the students dramatized a hypothetical yet hopeful heart changing scenario involving a terrorist. The students began by showing a violent shoot-out scene carried out by terrorists in a public place. Then, while at the hideout, the terrorists are seen to have an encounter with immortals. These immortals make the terrorists realize their mistake. The terrorists are moved to repentance by the words of the immortals and the speeches of Mother Teresa and Malala Yousafzai. The skit beautifully portrayed how forgiveness can be a big healer of humanity.
The students convincingly brought out the idea that education is the only solution to violence and intolerance in the world. We must live in peace and harmony if we want the world to be a better place to live in.
The skit also depicted the idea of how terrorism can be nipped in the bud if we are responsible and sensitive enough to each other beginning with the way we conduct ourselves in the classrooms in school. The students ended on a positive note suggesting solutions to the acts of terrorism which included various ways to end loneliness among students.

- Independence Day Parade and Panel - Talk at Bombay Scottish School - Powai
The Bombay Scottish School, Powai presented a very smartly turned out parade of students while hoisting the National Flag during the Independence Day program. Air Vice Marshal PK Srivastava, VSM (Retd) as guest of honour unfurled the flag, while the school band played the national anthem. The Principal Mrs. Sunita George, gave a deeply thought speech wherein she introduced the topic "The India of Tomorrow" to the panel. She highlighted that the students had chosen a wide range of topics where governance, tolerance, terrorism and digital media became key topics amongst others.
Mrs. George spoke about a rise in the number of educated terrorists in the world. She said that a person who is educated would be sensitive to others and to the needs of the society. A person who uses technology to harm others can only be called literate, not educated. Thereafter, she said that there is a very small section of society that goes out to make a change. We as Indians are doers, we are born tough and we do things! The challenges are there, but the answer is to dream. And then make a difference by taking action.
Students of grade 9 and 10 presented a mime that highlighted various social issues like intolerance, responsibility of media, and the wrongful use of social media. This was followed by a digital presentation that emphasized India's strength and her vision to create a world where different countries, across lands and seas, come together to discover opportunities in the fields of Business, Culture and Knowledge, with India being at the forefront.
Then the students opened the panel discussion with a question should we discuss the 'future OF India' or 'future IN India'? The idea that India wants to be a super power within the context of its growing future energy requirements; research and development needs; security concerns and many other points were very articulated by the student community.
The panelists were noted badminton player Upendra Phadnis; defense personnel Air Vice Marshal PK Srivastava; Director Gram Oorja Sameer Nair; and Head of Operations Community Code, Soham Bhatnagar. They answered queries such as 'Where do you see India, 15 years from now'; 'As a sports person, what was your initial reaction to a particular tweet on Olympics'; 'Would make-in-India create quick start-ups and mar development?'; 'Why aren't so many professionals taking up the civil services'; 'How would the Indian State respond to maritime threats when its only aircraft carrier INS Vikramaditya is out on service repair?' And so on.
The answers to these questions were given with much thought and reflection. Each member of the audience felt part of the discussion.
To conclude the event, Ms. Purbasha Roy was felicitated with a plaque from the Rotary Club of Bombay, Powai for her exemplary contribution towards education. Similarly, Class 8 students were also congratulated for winning the first place in an inter school competition, HAIRAT.

- EDUCATIONAL TRIP
An educational trip to The Nehru Science Centre was organized by Bombay Scottish School, Powai on the 9th and 10th of November 2016 for the students of Grades 6 ,7 and 8. This trip served a dual purpose of allowing the students to de-stress and learn something new by observing the fantastic exhibits at the Museum.
As the students made their way for Discovery of India, they were handed a worksheet that would test their skill of observation . They were given clear hints in the worksheet that allowed them to identify the zones where they needed to concentrate on to solve their projects. This activity made them more alert and observant. The worksheet for the students of grade 6 was based on the Ancient period while those for grade 7 and 8 were based on the Medieval and Modern India respectively. The students found this activity to be challenging and entertaining. They not only managed to get all their answers but had ample time to visit the exhibits that appealed to them.
'Learning by doing' helped the students to grasp new concepts in a jiffy. The audio visual aids created the perfect ambience for learning to take place in a new manner. The students were eager to solve their worksheets too to do justice to their project.
The trip gave the students a perfect opportunity to unwind and accumulate information that would serve a greater purpose in their future.

- Home science - trip to Renaissance
On 27th September 2016, the School organized a practical training programme for the Home Science students of class 9th & 10th ( 29 students) at the Renaissance Hotel in Powai. It's a beautiful and large hotel with around 500 rooms and large banqueting and restaurant facilities. The kitchen of such a huge hotel has to be designed in such a way to meet its large requirements. They were shown the large utensils and the huge dough makers.
All the chefs and cooks in the kitchen had worn hair nets and gloves and the students too had to wear the same during their tour of the kitchen.
They were shown the Walk - in cooler (refrigerator) and were taken in through the same. They were briefed that a large hotel like this cannot manage with only normal refrigerators hence they have to have huge space.
Cookie Making
The students were then taken to their most favorite department - The Bakery. The chef was kind enough to allow them to help him in baking chocolate chip cookies. Each one of them were given a small portion of the dough to be made into the cookies shape as per chef's instructions. He shared with them the recipe and they also got to eat the cookies they had prepared.
All in all, the trip to the Renaissance was well worth the visit there.

TOPIC: TERRORISM
The students of 9C depicted their views on Terrorism through means of a power point presentation, skit and poem recitation.
In the presentation, they defined what Terrorism is, its types , how it is now a new method of warfare and also elaborated on the major terrorist attacks that have occurred in the recent history of various countries, and different terrorist organizations involved in these activities.
The students also highlighted the usual causes that lead to terrorism and what made people turn into terrorists i.e feelings of anger, hatred, boredom, social injustice, poverty that is exploited through misguidance and brainwashing by vested interests.
One of the students recited an emotionally charged poem which she dedicated to the 17 soldiers who were killed in the terrorist act at Uri.
Through the skit, the students dramatized a hypothetical yet hopeful heart changing scenario involving a terrorist. The students began by showing a violent shoot-out scene carried out by terrorists in a public place. Then, while at the hideout, the terrorists are seen to have an encounter with immortals. These immortals make the terrorists realize their mistake. The terrorists are moved to repentance by the words of the immortals and the speeches of Mother Teresa and Malala Yousafzai. The skit beautifully portrayed how forgiveness can be a big healer of humanity.
The students convincingly brought out the idea that education is the only solution to violence and intolerance in the world. We must live in peace and harmony if we want the world to be a better place to live in.
The skit also depicted the idea of how terrorism can be nipped in the bud if we are responsible and sensitive enough to each other beginning with the way we conduct ourselves in the classrooms in school. The students ended on a positive note suggesting solutions to the acts of terrorism which included various ways to end loneliness among students.

- Independence Day Parade and Panel - Talk at Bombay Scottish School - Powai
The Bombay Scottish School, Powai presented a very smartly turned out parade of students while hoisting the National Flag during the Independence Day program. Air Vice Marshal PK Srivastava, VSM (Retd) as guest of honour unfurled the flag, while the school band played the national anthem. The Principal Mrs. Sunita George, gave a deeply thought speech wherein she introduced the topic "The India of Tomorrow" to the panel. She highlighted that the students had chosen a wide range of topics where governance, tolerance, terrorism and digital media became key topics amongst others.
Mrs. George spoke about a rise in the number of educated terrorists in the world. She said that a person who is educated would be sensitive to others and to the needs of the society. A person who uses technology to harm others can only be called literate, not educated. Thereafter, she said that there is a very small section of society that goes out to make a change. We as Indians are doers, we are born tough and we do things! The challenges are there, but the answer is to dream. And then make a difference by taking action.
Students of grade 9 and 10 presented a mime that highlighted various social issues like intolerance, responsibility of media, and the wrongful use of social media. This was followed by a digital presentation that emphasized India's strength and her vision to create a world where different countries, across lands and seas, come together to discover opportunities in the fields of Business, Culture and Knowledge, with India being at the forefront.
Then the students opened the panel discussion with a question should we discuss the 'future OF India' or 'future IN India'? The idea that India wants to be a super power within the context of its growing future energy requirements; research and development needs; security concerns and many other points were very articulated by the student community.
The panelists were noted badminton player Upendra Phadnis; defense personnel Air Vice Marshal PK Srivastava; Director Gram Oorja Sameer Nair; and Head of Operations Community Code, Soham Bhatnagar. They answered queries such as 'Where do you see India, 15 years from now'; 'As a sports person, what was your initial reaction to a particular tweet on Olympics'; 'Would make-in-India create quick start-ups and mar development?'; 'Why aren't so many professionals taking up the civil services'; 'How would the Indian State respond to maritime threats when its only aircraft carrier INS Vikramaditya is out on service repair?' And so on.
The answers to these questions were given with much thought and reflection. Each member of the audience felt part of the discussion.
To conclude the event, Ms. Purbasha Roy was felicitated with a plaque from the Rotary Club of Bombay, Powai for her exemplary contribution towards education. Similarly, Class 8 students were also congratulated for winning the first place in an inter school competition, HAIRAT.
