Summer camp is important because it offers a structured opportunity for children to grow. Kids come from home to school for extra curriculars, with each activity contributing to their development. It is another unique venue for growth, allowing kids to become independent and self-confident, while socializing and making friends, and even learning new skills. Presidians are having a wonderful time in the Summer Camp. They are enjoying fun filled activities and most importantly, they are learning things which are useful in everyday life. A host of activities have been planned like Personality development classes, Spoken English classes, Theatre, Music, Dance and Games like Swimming, Skating, Taekwondo, Cricket, Badminton, Basketball, Football etc. to keep children engaged during the summer vacations and to hone their skills.

The month of May marks an important event, ‘Budh Purnima’. The special assembly for the month of May was organized by the students of Grade 7. The assembly started with the Morning Prayer followed by the news headlines and thought for the day. A speech on the ‘Budh Purnima’ was delivered by the students. They participated wholeheartedly by making the audience aware about the importance of this day through a skit based on one of the important events in Buddha’s life. The assembly was addressed by our Principal Ms. Ragini Mansukhani. She encouraged the students with her motivating words. 

Happiness comes from creative efforts. The joy of dreaming, creating and expressing your thoughts by drawing and painting is unparalleled. Keeping this in mind and to explore the creative potential in the young minds of our children, Presidium, Hisar organised an Intra-class Drawing and Colouring Competition for Grades 1 to 3. It was a day where we saw creativity exploding in every piece of art. It was a wonderful opportunity for the students to think out of the box. The competition not only served its sole purpose but also gave them a platform to display their vivid ideas. The students had shown significant creativity via drawing and colouring as every student’s work was remarkable.

Extempore is the art of public speaking that is carried out without preparation or forethought. It assists the students not only in thinking on their own but also in voicing their creative ideas with precision. To imbibe a true spirit of learning in Presidians and to enhance the communication skills in them, an Inter Club Extempore Competition was held at Presidium School. The topics in the competition were associated with current affairs. The judgement was done on the basis of content, relevance to the topic, confidence, clarity of speech, time management, use of language and grammar, presence of mind and body language. The competition thrilled everyone and gave life long learning lessons.

The students of Presidium, Hisar presented a special assembly on Mother’s Day. It was to honor the contribution of all mother figures in exhibiting their unconditional love and for being in this world as a precious gift of God. Mother’s Day is a special day for all children and mothers as it celebrates the bond of love and affection that is everlasting. Students expressed their love and devotion towards the dignity of motherhood through a delightful combination of music and dance. The highlight of the assembly was a heart touching skit and a dance which was appreciated by all the students and teachers. The Principal of the school, Ms. Ragni Mansukhani said that Mothers are the definition of pure love! They are the epitome of forgiveness and strength. All admiration and gratitude to Mother figures!

To teach the Presidians about the basic process of construction by observing the real life examples of a working space, a visit to the construction site was organised for the students of Grade 4. The main objective of this visit was to give a chance to students to learn by witnessing different types of machinery and their uses. Students gained more information about the types of buildings and what material is needed to construct a building by asking questions to the supervisors and people working at the construction site. This visit certainly fulfilled the aim of the Presidium curriculum that fosters project based learning among students.

Presidium Hisar conducted a special assembly on ‘World Dance Day’ with great zeal.

Students of Grade X hosted the assembly. A special guest performer, Mr. Jigyasu who is a renowned Kathak Dancer, graced the event and presented  a mesmerising classical performance. The students also presented different forms of dance including classical and western which fascinated everyone. The event was marked with a kaleidoscope of different dance forms. All the dancers were deeply appreciated for their love and passion towards dance by the Principal, Ms. Ragni Mansukhani. She discussed that

dancing has multiple health benefits such as improved heart and lungs, increased muscular

strength, endurance and motor fitness. Most importantly, it makes us feel happy!

‘One can do anything but not everything, so we need the support of people around us to

achieve our goals.’

Presidium, Hisar celebrated International Labour day on 1 st May, 2019. The objective was to

teach children about the importance and value of Labour Day. A special assembly was

conducted by the students which started with a welcoming note and a presentation about

the history of the Labour Day through a play – giving tribute to the working class. Students

also expressed their gratitude to them through a speech. Towards the end, Principal Ms. Ragni Mansukhani thanked all the didis and bhaiyas present in the school and acknowledged

“Mother Earth is the culmination of multiple and diverse energies, which is brought together to create a rich aesthetic experience with a message of harmony and co-existence”. As a step towards inspiring, educating and motivating children to act, a special assembly was Held to commemorate Earth Day. This was followed by the thought for the day and News. Post this; the children recited a soulful poem on understanding our duties towards Mother Earth as a responsible citizen. The day also marked planting of saplings in the garden by the Principal, Ms. Ragni Mansukhani along with students. Planting a tree is a great way to celebrate Earth Day. When people plant trees they are doing more than just beautifying an area. Trees are beneficial to the environment in numerous ways. They help produce oxygen and filter out pollutants to clean the air. The assembly concluded with a message emphasizing not only on the importance of conserving natural resources but on observing each day as an Earth day.
