Save Soil! An Initiative by the youth!!!!

On the 12th of April, 2022 an awareness program of global concern ‘Soil Extinction’ was conducted by Mr. Vamsi, Mr. Bharghav and their team in the school auditorium as a part of the “Save Soil” movement. This included a video of Sadhguru, who briefly described the situation. He also mentioned that the problem is mainly due to the extinction of soil microbes (the helpers of the farmers). We must also remember that if plants suffer, we suffer next. Also, the food shortage might even result in civil wars all over the country. The fact that there is only 40-50 years of agricultural soil left on the planet , saddened all of us. The program recommends policy changes, educating the farmers about the excessive usage of pesticides and fertilizers to save soil. The gravity of situation made all the students put on their thinking caps and they used their voice to write a letter to the Prime Minister highlighting the same. The auditorium full of students gyrated to the “Soil Song” while some swayed rhythmically with placards in their hands! It was a wake up call for all of us to do something about saving the soil or else we are surely heading for a disaster.

As we all know, education is the driving force behind every country’s economy, directly or indirectly. The Hyderabad Public School, Ramanthapur has adopted modern innovative methods and courses for education. In this regard, The HPSR, have started making students work in groups to solve problems, learn online and integrate science with arts. But it is noticed even then; students graduating lack the advanced skills and innovative thinking to work through the modern day challenges in the workplace. Thus, entrepreneurship, the capacity to not only start companies, but also to think creatively and ambitiously, is very important to be included in school curriculum.
Entrepreneurship education aids students from all socioeconomic backgrounds to think outside the box and nurture unconventional talents and skills. It creates opportunities, ensures social justice, instills confidence and stimulates the economy. Entrepreneurship education is a lifelong learning process, starting as early as elementary school and progressing through all levels of education, including adult education.
Introducing young kids to entrepreneurship develops their initiative and helps them to be more creative and self-confident in whatever they undertake and to act in a socially responsible way.
In this context, Dr S Narasimha Reddy, Principal, The Hyderabad Public School Ramanthapur, under his visionary leadership introduced the subject entrepreneurship in the Class 11. The Alumni Association of The HPSR and The TIE Hyderabad has professionally given intensive coaching to the students. HPSR Youngpreneurs began on March 20th 2021 and culminated with a grand finale on May 2nd 2021. Due to the ongoing pandemic, the prize distribution event was postponed and scheduled on 8th October 2021. Parents, teachers and the students gathered at the assembly hall with great excitement and enthusiasm on this day at 10 am.

Then Principal, in his address to the gathering, enlightened the people with the importance of the entrepreneurship. This was followed by an inspiring speech by the Guest of Honor, Mr. Jay, who motivated the students saying that though he belonged to a simple agricultural background, could become a successful entrepreneur only due to his hardwork and entrepreneurial mindset.

AFS:Virtual Effect + Global Citizenship Education Workshop
Be the Change Maker

Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future. While human progress is inevitable, it is essential that our actions and methods touch each and every individual around us, ensuring that the collective contribution of society is not hindered. While each one of us had our own perception of this target, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) workshop, organised by the AFS was an astonishing and mind-altering event for the participating students which condensed the question of universal change into a more coherent solution, permeating one’s minds and getting synthesized with our own previous knowledge of the goal. The current pandemic exposed us to the immense need for global citizenship, and this workshop perfectly encapsulated the idea, helping link the road ahead of us in terms of bringing a change with the current problems plaguing our world now. Now, we understand that Change making is all about working for betterment and being able to influence others to do the same.

World Read Aloud Day

Ruskin Bond said,” Books are man’s best friends and are more than the king’s treasure”.
So, it is important to read books, breathe books and feel books.

Unfortunately, reading habit is dying down as the world has adopted technology at a fast pace. But nothing can beat the feel of a book in your hand while reading sitting on your settee. A ‘Kindle’ cannot substitute the book.

Armchair traveling can make one’s life very interesting. You go around the world without spending anything with an added advantage of gaining knowledge and wisdom.

Today to commemorate World Read Aloud Day, I urge the young and the old alike to Read, Read and Read.

DEAR – Drop, Everything and Read Aloud should be the motto.

Reading habit can make you a happier and a wholesome person.

‘Chai and Chat’: A Glimpse into the Future with AI

On the 31st of July 2023, the kindergarten stage was transformed into an intimate setting for ‘Chai and Chat’, an informal leadership talk aimed at the budding minds of classes 11 and 12.

Conducted between 3 to 4 pm, the event witnessed Mr. Chelle Haren, a proud alumnus of HPSR’s 2010 batch,  leading an enlightening discussion on the topic ‘Future with AI’. The atmosphere was electric, with students brimming with curiosity about the vast world of Artificial Intelligence.

Throughout the talk, the students exhibited a desire to understand the myriad uses and importance of AI in our ever-evolving technological landscape. Their questions reflected concerns of the modern age – how to stay safe in a digital realm dominated by AI, what are the dos and don’ts when interacting with such technology, and what our coexistence with AI might look like in the coming years.

Mr. Haren emphasized the dual role of AI in the future. On one hand, AI can effortlessly execute mundane tasks, speeding up processes. On the other hand, this automation underscores the dire need for the present generation to remain innovative. “The future with AI will be safe and prosperous only when people embrace their creativity and innovation,” he remarked.

The takeaway from this engaging session was clear: While AI will undeniably play a significant role in sculpting our future, human ingenuity and creativity remain irreplaceable.

In the shadow of the setting sun, as the stage was cleared and students dispersed, the echoes of a future harmoniously entwined with AI resonated, marking the success of yet another enriching ‘Chai and Chat’ session.
