RPS Gurugram 89 - Activities (Junior)

Yoga is the journey of the self, through the self, to the self.” The Bhagavad Gita. Yoga in daily life is a system of practice consisting of eight levels- physical, mental, social and spiritual health. When the body is physically healthy, the mind is clear, focused and stress is under control. To put this into practice, a special assembly was organized on Thursday, April 25 2019 to teach main asanas of yoga in order to revitalize the body and refresh the mind. Students felt energetic throughout the course of the day after the power packed session of yoga.

Children have an innate love for stories. Stories create magic and a sense of wonder at the world. A good story telling session can do wonders to a child’s imagination and can really work at enhancing his/her expression. It was this thought that led us to arrange a storytelling session for class  IIA on Tuesday April 23,2019 at RPS International School,sec-89. The storyteller Mr.Sanjeev Abhilashi,  who is very creative, used mediums like facial expressions, voice modulation to keep the children engaged and interested throughout the session. Students enjoyed the impersonations of different characters and seemed transported into an imaginary world! The lit up faces and mesmerized looks spoke volumes about the interest it had generated in the children. Their feedback soon after the session was ‘brilliant, epic, fantastic, amazing and…….fabulous'.  Every happy memory created for children is the biggest treasure for me - said by School Principal,Dr.Roopa Marwaha Bhalla. ...
