One Minute Game

Games generally involve mental or physical stimulation and often both. Key components of games are goals, rules, challenge, and interaction. They bring out inherent talent of the participants.           

One minute games are great ways to begin an event or to engage a crowd of children. They are challenging and obviously don’t last very long! A very accommodating quality for those short-attention-spanners!

At Orchids - The International School[Hyderabad], we organized one minute games for kids from I-V classes on 28/6/2013. Our students truly enjoyed these moments a lot. 

Winners:
1. Hassaan Mond Khan
2. Aaratrika Maity
3. Abdul Rahman Baig

Home Studio

Orchids- The International School [Hyderabad] has taken a special initiative in inculcating and developing lifeskills as a pre-requisite in personality development among its students especially at the primary level.

 The first step was taken for the students of classes I – III ( in the age group of 5-8 yrs) They were taken to the ‘Home Studio’ , since most of them have difficulties especially in tying their shoe laces and were guided in this activity.

Most of the children took the task up as a challenge and were successful in tying their laces independently .

      Home Studio is a place were life skills are taught to the students in various activities like bed spreading, ironing, grooming, dusting, table manners, buttoning etc.

Koffee with parents

22.6.12 was a day meant for ‘KOFFEE with Parents’ at Orchids. ‘Parents of Orchids, Hyderabad’ attended the interactive session which started with Principal, Ms. Mona Mehdi’s introductory, informative and promising address.  Orchids’s Mission and Vision, its Philosophy, Policies and Rules, activities and constant endeavours to progress were detailed. Orchids is committed to groom students who can become confident and able to deal with all situations. Ethical and moral values always have a predominant importance while pursuing technology-oriented education. Traditional and modern ideas go hand in hand in imparting education. Orchids is a certified Cambridge school and follows CBSE curriculum from classes VI-X.

 The report on the recent achievements of Orchidians, as in Olympiad contests, was very impressive.

The PowerPoint presentation by the Principal gave tips on parenting and advised parents to spend quality and quantity time with their children. They need to encourage their child to cultivate reading habit and motivate the child to offer a book with the child’s name, year and class written, to the school library on his/her birthday.

Parental cooperation in all the events and activities is quite essential and Orchids looks forward to it.  Parents need to encourage their children to grab opportunities and participate in all the programmes, activities and competitions which gradually improve their skills and performance.

Mr. S. Raj Kumar, Regional Manager and Mr. Kameshwara Rao, SAT Executive of South India, Kokuyo Camlin ltd. gave a demonstration of how painting can be made easy. Painting, just as any art, requires interest, patience and guidance and the experts motivated the viewers to learn the art.

A few students of class IX displayed their skills of Rubik’s cube to the delight of the audience.

The Session impressed the audience and closed with the nomination of Parent Representatives for all the classes who can be supportive and contribute ideas for the school’s progress. The session ended with another beginning!
