Guests from Pune UWC Mahindra College
On Tuesday, a group of Students and faculty from UWC Mahindra College (MUWCI) visited The Fabindia School.
The day began with an introduction session. After that, friendly sports matches were organized. We played Pickleball and Volleyball matches with the guests. Both matches were very exciting and enjoyed by everyone.
After the games, the guests conducted a Theatre Workshop for the students. The workshop was very interactive and fun-filled.
In the workshop, they conducted an interesting activity. They would call out numbers from 1 to 5, and we had to perform the action corresponding to that number. For example, actions like sleep, sit, run, walk, etc. This game was very enjoyable and helped us learn to respond quickly and focus. All the students participated with great energy.
Overall, it was a very enjoyable and memorable day. We learned a lot and had a lot of fun with the guests.
Poetry Comes Alive: Poem Recitation Activity in the Primary Section
The Primary Section of The Fabindia School organised an engaging and joyful Poem Recitation Activity on Saturday, providing young learners with an opportunity to explore the beauty of poetry and express themselves creatively.
Students enthusiastically recited poems from their textbooks, focusing on clear pronunciation, voice modulation, expressions, and appropriate pauses. Their lively presentations brought the verses to life, reflecting their growing confidence, language skills, and creativity.
The activity encouraged students to overcome stage hesitation, develop effective speaking skills, and appreciate the rhythm and emotions of poetry. It was wonderful to see our young learners reciting with such enthusiasm and confidence.
The activity concluded on a cheerful note, leaving everyone inspired by the power of words and the joy of expression.

Navratri Garba & Dandiya Celebration – Pre-Primary
Our Pre-Primary children celebrated the spirit of Navratri with great joy and enthusiasm on Monday, the second day of Navratri. Dressed in colourful traditional attire, our little ones enjoyed dancing Garba and participating in the fun-filled Dandiya activity. 
The celebration was filled with vibrant colours, cheerful smiles, traditional dance, and festive spirit. It was a wonderful way for our little stars to experience and enjoy our rich cultural traditions!
Small Habits, Big Changes: The Power of Daily Consistency
We often believe that to achieve something great, we need to make massive changes overnight. Whether it is getting top grades, learning a new language, or getting fit, we wait for a sudden boost of motivation. However, true success rarely comes from big, dramatic efforts. It comes from the small things we do every single day.
Improving by just 1% every day might not feel like much in the moment, but over a few months, those tiny efforts add up to extraordinary results. Reading just five pages of a book a day means finishing several books a year. Solving just two extra math problems a night builds strong problem-solving skills over time.
The secret is consistency over perfection. Motivation gets us started, but habit is what keeps us going. Instead of worrying about huge goals, we should focus on building simple, positive daily routines. Small daily wins may seem invisible today, but they shape who we become tomorrow.

Technology in Today’s Era
Today, we live in the age of technology. Technology has become an important part of our daily lives. We use mobile phones, computers, and the internet for many purposes.
Technology has made our lives easier and faster. Students can study online and learn new things through the internet. We can talk to people who live far away and share information within seconds. Doctors use modern machines to treat patients, and farmers use new technologies to improve agriculture.
Nowadays, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is also becoming popular. It helps people complete many tasks quickly and easily. Technology has changed the way we study, work, travel, and communicate.
However, excessive use of technology can waste our time and affect our studies. We should use mobile phones wisely and avoid spending too much time on screens.
In conclusion, technology is an important part of modern life. We should use it in the right way to gain knowledge, improve our skills, and make our future better.
“Technology is a useful servant, but a dangerous master.”

Redefining Indian daughters
In India, women are often taken for granted. There is a deep-seated assumption that a woman’s only purpose is to manage household chores and raise children. Sadly, this mentality is deeply rooted even among girls in rural areas. From a young age, they are told that their world ends at the front door.
I often hear my own friends saying they will either quit their education after the 12th grade or simply get married. It makes me wonder what led them to believe that this is their only path. These girls possess immense potential, but they have been conditioned not to recognize it.
The reality after marriage can be harsh. Many women in India face challenges like unemployed husbands, toxic in-laws, and domestic violence. If a daughter is educated and empowered, she doesn't just gain a degree, but she also gains the ability to take a stand and survive on her own.
It is hard to call India a "developing nation" when the mindsets of so many remain underdeveloped. There is a haunting contradiction in our society: we pray and bow before goddesses in temples, yet we chop the wings of our daughters at home. In Hinduism, women are seen as incarnations of the Divine. It is time we let them out of their confinement so they can truly become the blessing they were meant to be.
So to all the parents:
Don't just give her a home to keep; give her the floor, and watch her rebuild the house.

(Reporters as RP, GSH as Gauravraj Singh)
RP: How does it feel to become the President of our Student Council?
GSH: It's a great honour to be elected as president of our student council. I would like to express my gratitude to both my teachers and classmates for believing in me. Nevertheless, I understand that this position is not only prestigious but also responsible, because I should listen to the needs of the students and contribute to the improvement of our school.
RP: What kind of changes or improvements would you like to bring to our school?
GSH: I want to make our school atmosphere friendly, lively, and pleasant for everyone. I want students to get more chances to do something, and it is also very important for me that our campus is clean, disciplined, and supportive.
RP: What do you think made you suitable for this position?
GSH: I think it was my devotion to studies, discipline, and willingness to assist somebody that made me a suitable person for this.
RP: Has becoming President changed the way you look at leadership or responsibility?
GSH: Yes, it has. Now, I understand that being a leader is not just about having status or authority. Being responsible and attentive, and setting an example for others, are also important qualities of a good leader. I have realised that even small things matter when a leader has to make good decisions.
RP: How would you encourage students who hesitate to participate in school activities?
GSH: I would ensure that they feel comfortable and supported instead of being evaluated. Everybody has different strengths, and sometimes what a student needs is only encouragement from somebody to come forward and do something. I am convinced that if they see support and encouragement, they will be ready to participate.
