PET DAY

Orchids- The International School celebrated ‘Pet Day’ on 13/09/14 i.e., on Saturday. Two dogs Simba and Alex were brought by the parents. Children enjoyed the action of both the dogs. The tiny Pomeranian Simba was two and a half years old and weighted only two and half kilos. The huge three month old Alex weighted 22 kilos. Chicken is the favorite food of both the dogs. Alex was of black and white colours and Simba was of light brown colour. The children enjoyed the sight of both the dogs baring at each other and they patted both the dogs.

We appreciate and thank the parents for their co-operation.

Hindi Hasya Kavi Sammelan

Humour is a very essential part of our life – it can be in any language. This fact became evident when Orchids organized its first ever ‘Hindi hasya kavi sammelan’ on 7/9/14. Thirteen students from Classes VI – X who have opted for Hindi as their II language, were selected to present a variety of anecdotes  that kept the other students of Classes III – X in splits.   All the speakers showed a lot of confidence and enthusiasm and were eloquent in their expression. However, since it was an Inter-House competition,   Farhanalluh Farooqui and Shuchita Gupta of Class X won the first prize. The second prize was bagged by Kethan Jainof Class VII. Khadija Khan won the third prize.

Teachers' Day Celebrations

Teachers’ Day is a day when all the students get an opportunity to express their love and appreciation for their teachers. The students at Orchids – The International School are no different! They planned meticulously and celebrated Teachers’ Day with a lot of enthusiasm.

The students of Class VI presented a skit depicting Dr.Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan and his wish to celebrate his birthday as Teachers’ Day in an endeavour to represent and honour the teaching community.

The students of Classes IX and X put up a short but interesting cultural programme.Most of the senior students represented teachers. The teachers who were called onto the stage to walk the ramp were felicitated and given gifts by the Principal. 

A game of Musical Chairs was also organised for the teachers before the cutting of the cake which marked the end of celebrations by the students. The teachers, later, went out for a lavish lunch hosted by the school management.
