They participated with great zeal, showcasing their creativity, teamwork, and cultural appreciation. The competition provided a platform for students to express themselves through the traditional art form of Rangoli, highlighting the rich cultural heritage of India.
Significance of Rangoli Making
Rangoli making is a beautiful art form that involves creating intricate patterns using various materials such as powdered lime, red ochre, rice flour, colored sand, quartz powder, flower petals, colored rocks, and glitters. This traditional practice is an integral part of Indian culture, especially during festivals like Diwali, Tihar, Onam, Pongal, and Sankranthi. Rangoli designs are often passed down through generations, preserving the cultural legacy and connecting families.
Role of Rangoli During Sankranthi
Sankranthi, also known as Makar Sankranti, is a major harvest festival celebrated across India. During this festival, Rangoli plays a significant role in welcoming prosperity and happiness into homes. The vibrant designs are created at the entrance of houses to invite positive energy and ward off evil spirits. Rangoli patterns during Sankranthi often depict symbols of abundance, such as grains, flowers, and traditional motifs, reflecting the joy and gratitude of the harvest season.

Bharadwaja Naidu, General Manager Sri. A. Prabhu Kumar, Academic Principal Sri.V. V. V. Naveen Kumar, Administrative Principal Sri. T. Pavan Kumar, Vice Principal Sri . V.

Winter is a season of noticeable change, bringing colder temperatures, shorter days, and unique adaptations for humans, animals, and birds alike. As winter sets in, the climate transforms dramatically, especially in colder regions. Snow may cover the ground, rivers and ponds may freeze, and chilly winds blow through the air. These changes require everyone—humans, animals, and birds—to adjust in order to survive and stay comfortable.
Winter changes the climate in many ways. The temperatures drop significantly, which is especially common in areas that experience snowfall. In some parts of the world, temperatures go below freezing, making water turn to ice. The days become shorter, while nights grow longer and colder. Cold winds make it feel even chillier than the actual temperature. These weather conditions also bring fog and frost, which reduce visibility and make travel challenging. Such changes require extra effort from all forms of life to adapt and stay warm.
Winter brings many changes to people’s daily routines. Clothing becomes thicker and warmer, as people wear jackets, sweaters, gloves, and scarves to keep warm. Households also prepare to keep the cold out, using heaters, hot water bottles, and even lighting fires in fireplaces. Food habits may change, too. Many people consume warm, nutritious foods and hot drinks like soup, tea, and coffee to keep their bodies warm. Schools and workplaces may adjust their schedules or encourage people to stay indoors during the coldest parts of the day.
However, winter also brings health challenges. Common colds, coughs, and even flu are frequent as the body becomes more vulnerable to infections. The elderly and children are particularly at risk and need extra care to stay healthy.
Animals and birds also experience significant changes during winter. Many animals, such as bears, hibernate to conserve energy during this season when food is scarce. They sleep for weeks, even months, without needing to eat or drink. Some animals, like rabbits and foxes, grow thicker fur coats to stay warm. Birds, on the other hand, often migrate to warmer regions, flying thousands of miles to find food and shelter. For birds and animals that stay put, finding food becomes a daily challenge. Many small creatures like squirrels store food in advance to survive the winter months.
Precautions for Children and Adults during Winter
To enjoy a safe and healthy winter, children and adults alike need to take certain precautions.
Dress in Layers: Wearing layers of warm clothing helps trap body heat. Woolen clothes, gloves, hats, and scarves protect against cold air and prevent heat from escaping.
Eat Nutritious Food: Hot and nutritious meals, rich in vitamins and minerals, help strengthen immunity. Warm drinks like soups, herbal teas, and hot milk are comforting and help keep the body warm.
Stay Active Indoors: While it’s tempting to stay cozy, staying active improves blood circulation and keeps the body warm. Simple indoor exercises can be great for both adults and children.
Practice Good Hygiene: Winter is flu season, so it’s important to wash hands frequently, avoid sharing personal items, and cover coughs and sneezes. This helps prevent the spread of colds and flu.
Protect Against Dry Skin: Winter air can dry out skin, so using a moisturizer is essential to avoid dry and cracked skin, especially for young children and elderly people.
We should be mindful of the fact that winter brings beauty and magic but also requires preparation and care. With the right clothing, healthy food, and safe practices, both children and adults can stay warm and healthy. Meanwhile, it’s fascinating to see how animals and birds adjust to winter in their own unique ways, reminding us of the importance of adapting to nature’s seasons. Taking precautions helps everyone—humans, animals, and birds—face the challenges of winter with resilience.
The CBSE National Science Challenge is a prestigious initiative that promotes curiosity and higher-order thinking among students in classes 8 to 10 across CBSE-affiliated schools.With over 27,000 CBSE schools across India, this challenge draws participation from an estimated 100,000 students nationwide, creating an incredibly competitive environment. Focused on science, environment, and sustainability, the challenge comprises two rounds: an initial intra-school round followed by an inter-school competition.
Schools begin by registering students on the CBSE Science Challenge Portal, ensuring every eligible student has the opportunity to participate. The first round is organized within schools, assessing students through timed, accuracy-based MCQs, after which the best six students—two from each class—proceed to the inter-school stage.
This process provides a rich learning environment that aligns with CBSE’s mission to strengthen scientific engagement among young learners, making the Science Challenge an essential step in fostering a well-rounded education.
Earning a place among the top 50 in the National Science Challenge is an extraordinary accomplishment that fills us with immense pride, especially considering the scale of the competition. Nedunuri Sai Vidhyakar of 8th, Chitikela Lekhana of 9th at our Erragattugutta Campus have out-performed an estimated 100,000 participants, placing in the top 50 means our students have ranked in the top 0.05% nationwide, competing among India’s brightest and most dedicated learners.
Representing our school on this prestigious national stage, they showcase their commitment to excellence in science and bring exceptional honour to our entire school community. This achievement is a testament to their hard work, determination, and resilience as they continue to pursue excellence and future opportunities in science and beyond.
Lord Krishna, one of the most revered deities in Hinduism, represents much more than divinity. He embodies friendship, wisdom, and the very essence of life’s profound philosophies. As we celebrate Krishnashtami, it’s important to reflect on how Krishna’s life and teachings continue to inspire and guide us.
Krishna’s life is a beautiful blend of divine playfulness and deep wisdom. From his childhood, he captivated hearts with his mischievous charm and loving nature. His friendships, particularly with Sudama and Arjuna, reveal the purest forms of bond and loyalty. Krishna’s friendship with Sudama is a timeless example of how true friends value each other beyond material wealth or social status. Despite being a king, Krishna welcomed Sudama, a poor Brahmin, with open arms and treated him with utmost respect. This story teaches us that true friendship is not defined by external appearances but by inner connection and mutual respect.
Krishna’s role as a philosopher is equally significant. The Bhagavad Gita, a dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, is one of the greatest philosophical texts. Through his teachings in the Gita, Krishna guides Arjuna to overcome his doubts and fears, offering profound insights into life, duty, and righteousness. He emphasizes the importance of selfless action, encouraging us to perform our duties without attachment to the outcomes. This principle of “Karma Yoga” is a cornerstone of Krishna’s philosophy, urging us to live with integrity and purpose.
Krishna’s teachings transcend time and continue to resonate with us today. His message of balance, detachment, and inner peace provides a practical approach to navigating the complexities of modern life. Whether we are dealing with personal challenges or seeking deeper meaning, Krishna’s wisdom offers guidance.
Krishna is not just a divine figure but a symbol of friendship and philosophy. His life and teachings inspire us to be better friends, embrace wisdom, and live with purpose.
As we celebrate Krishnashtami, let us remember the lessons of Krishna and strive to embody the values of love, loyalty, and wisdom in our lives.

I am writing to emphasize the profound significance of festivals in our rich and diverse country, India. Festivals in India are not merely celebrations; they are threads that weave the cultural fabric of our nation, binding us together in unity and harmony.
Our festivals carry centuries-old traditions, values, and customs. They serve as a reminder of our shared heritage, teaching us to respect and appreciate the diversity that defines our society. Diwali illuminates the triumph of light over darkness, symbolizing knowledge dispelling ignorance.
Holi, the festival of colours, exemplifies the joy of unity in diversity. Eid fosters the spirit of generosity and communal harmony. Christmas brings in the value of compassion and sacrifice. Each festival carries unique teachings, promoting understanding and acceptance among all.
Furthermore, festivals play a pivotal role in promoting social cohesion. They provide opportunities for families and communities to come together, reinforcing the importance of togetherness and mutual support. Through these celebrations, our children learn invaluable lessons about empathy, compassion, and the spirit of giving.
In the spirit of these festivals, let us embrace the diversity that makes our country extraordinary. Let us celebrate our differences and similarities alike, fostering an environment of love, acceptance, and understanding within our school and beyond.
Added Part about Dussehra
Now, that we are celebrating Dussehra with great fervour and joy I would like to say a few things about this festival in particular.
Dussehra, also known as Vijayadashami, holds immense social and religious significance in Hindu culture. Socially, it symbolizes the victory of good over evil, encouraging people to embrace righteousness and reject negativity. The festival fosters a sense of unity and joy within communities, as families come together to celebrate. It also promotes cultural harmony and understanding among diverse groups.
Religiously, Dussehra marks the triumph of Lord Rama over the demon king Ravana, signifying the victory of dharma (righteousness) over adharma (unrighteousness). It is a time for devotees to reflect on moral values and spiritual principles. The day is often associated with the worship of Goddess Durga, representing the divine feminine energy and strength.
Dussehra instils moral and ethical lessons, reminding people of the importance of truth, courage, and compassion. The celebrations strengthen social bonds, promote religious tolerance, and inspire individuals to lead a virtuous life, making it a vital festival in the rich tapestry of India’s cultural and religious heritage.
Wishing you all a joyous festive season filled with love, compassion, and unity.
