Greenwood Glowed with Tradition and a Spirit-Filled Diwali Celebration

Significance of Diwali

Diwali is celebrated not only by Hindus but also by Sikhs, Jains, and some Buddhists. It signifies the triumph of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, and good over evil. It unites families and communities in joy and harmony, signified by lighting oil lamps, creating rangolis, sharing sweets, and lighting fireworks.

Historical Background of Diwali

Diwali’s origins are rich with ancient legends:

Return of Lord Rama: Diwali commemorates Lord Rama’s return to Ayodhya after 14 years of exile and his victory over Ravana. The people of Ayodhya welcomed him with lights and celebrations, a tradition that continues today.

Goddess Lakshmi’s Blessings: Diwali is also dedicated to worshiping Goddess Lakshmi, symbolizing wealth and prosperity. Homes are decorated and lit up to welcome her blessings.

Celebration by Jains and Sikhs: For Jains, Diwali marks the enlightenment of Lord Mahavira. Sikhs celebrate Bandi Chhor Divas, commemorating Guru Hargobind Ji’s release from imprisonment, symbolizing freedom and hope.

Narakasura’s Defeat: Diwali also includes the story of Lord Krishna’s victory over Narakasura, symbolizing the triumph of good over evil.

Celebrations at Greenwood School

The celebrations at Greenwood School began with a beautiful transformation of the campus. The school premises were decorated with colorful rangolis, strings of lights, and traditional decorations, filling the atmosphere with festive joy.

How Important Are Field Trips
for School Children?

Field trips are an essential part of the educational journey, offering students opportunities to learn beyond the walls of a classroom. These excursions allow children to experience real-world environments, fostering curiosity and providing hands-on learning experiences. Field trips are not just a break from routine; they are a dynamic educational tool that serves multiple purposes, enriching a child’s academic and social development.

The primary goal of field trips is to complement classroom learning. By visiting museums, historical landmarks, science centers, factories, or natural parks, children gain a practical understanding of theoretical concepts. For instance, a trip to a botanical garden brings lessons in biology to life, while a visit to a historical site deepens their grasp of history.

Field trips also cultivate critical thinking, observation skills, and an appreciation for diverse cultures and environments. Moreover, they encourage teamwork and social interaction, as children learn to cooperate, communicate, and share experiences with their peers in a less formal setting.

Organizing a successful field trip requires meticulous planning by teachers. They must first identify the educational objectives of the trip and choose a destination that aligns with these goals. Once the location is decided, teachers should gather detailed information about the site, including its facilities, rules, and accessibility.

Teachers should also prepare a schedule that accounts for travel time, activities, and breaks, ensuring that the trip remains engaging yet manageable. Prior to the trip, it is important to conduct classroom sessions to brief students about the purpose of the visit, the significance of the destination, and any tasks or observations they are expected to complete. Additionally, obtaining parental consent and providing parents with a detailed itinerary are vital steps.

The safety of children is paramount during field trips. Schools must take several precautions to minimize risks. First, the teacher-to-student ratio should be appropriate to ensure adequate supervision. Teachers and staff must maintain a comprehensive list of all students and conduct headcounts regularly during the trip.

A medical kit should be on hand, and schools should be aware of any specific medical needs or allergies of the students. Transportation must be arranged through trusted providers, and all vehicles should be checked for safety compliance. Clear instructions regarding rules, such as staying within designated areas and not wandering off, should be communicated to the children.

 

Assigning group leaders among the students and equipping them with emergency contact numbers can also enhance safety. Schools should inform the destination authorities in advance about the visit and seek their assistance, if necessary, to ensure a smooth experience.

However field trips are exciting opportunities for children for learning beyond the classroom, but they come with responsibilities. School children must listen carefully to their teachers and guides, following all instructions. Staying with the group is essential to ensure safety. Respecting the places they visit by avoiding littering and speaking politely shows good behavior. 

Students should observe and ask thoughtful questions to make the most of the experience. Keeping noise levels low allows everyone to focus and enjoy. Being punctual at meeting points demonstrates discipline. Carrying essentials like water, snacks, and a notebook ensures readiness. By acting responsibly, students can have a fun, educational trip while making a positive impression on others.

 

Field trips are an indispensable part of holistic education. They not only make learning more meaningful and enjoyable but also equip students with life skills such as independence, adaptability, and teamwork. However, the success of a field trip lies in thorough planning and unwavering attention to safety. By ensuring that these aspects are carefully addressed, schools can create enriching experiences that students cherish for a lifetime.

The Importance of Sports
and Games in Human Life

Sports and games play a vital role in the life of humans of all ages, offering benefits beyond just physical health. They help in mental relaxation, teach life skills, and build social bonds, making them a significant part of daily life across cultures and generations.

Historically, sports and games have been valued for their role in keeping people fit and strong. Ancient civilizations like Greece and Rome placed high importance on physical activities. The Greeks introduced the Olympic Games around 776 BC to celebrate the human body’s abilities, focusing on disciplines like running, wrestling, and javelin, which helped athletes become physically and mentally tough.

Today, sports and games remain popular because they provide people with a means to escape daily stress. Physical activities like running, swimming, and playing team sports allow people to disconnect from their routines, experience joy, and relax. For children and young people, sports promote healthy development.

Regular physical activity strengthens the muscles, enhances flexibility, and improves cardiovascular health. Young athletes tend to develop habits of fitness and discipline that can last a lifetime, while older people benefit from exercises that maintain strength, balance, and coordination. Even light sports like walking, yoga, or swimming are known to lower blood pressure, reduce the risk of chronic diseases, and boost overall well-being for people of all ages.

Apart from health, sports and games teach essential life skills. Team games, such as soccer, basketball, and volleyball, encourage teamwork, patience, and cooperation. Players learn to coordinate with one another, listen, and respect others’ opinions and skills. Individual sports, like tennis and gymnastics, teach focus, resilience, and independence. These sports highlight the importance of setting personal goals, working hard, and handling both victory and defeat with grace. Such qualities help people become better individuals who can cope with challenges in all areas of life.

 

Additionally, sports bring people together, fostering a sense of community and friendship. Local sports clubs, school teams, and national competitions create an environment for people to meet, interact, and celebrate achievements. International events like the Olympics, FIFA World Cup, and others unite people from various cultures, promoting unity and respect for diversity.

For older adults, sports and games offer unique advantages. Engaging in light sports and exercises can reduce the risk of depression, keep the mind sharp, and improve quality of life. Research suggests that people who stay physically active are more likely to experience better emotional well-being and remain socially connected as they age.

Thus, sports and games have always been an essential part of human life, valued for their physical, mental, and social benefits. From ancient times to the modern world, they have shaped cultures, inspired individuals, and brought communities together.

As people of all ages participate in sports and games, they not only enhance their health but also learn valuable lessons and create lasting bonds. Whether young or old, engaging in sports and games can lead to a healthier, happier, and more balanced life.

Adapting to Winter: Changes, Challenges, and Care for All

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.

Presided over by the school’s esteemed Director, Dr. G. Bharadwaja Naidu, these assemblies include the hoisting of the national flag, uplifting speeches, and the presentation of awards to commendable students.

On 4th November 2024, Greenwood High School held a special assembly to recognize student achievements and share important updates. The assembly featured key ceremonial elements and was graced by Director Dr. G. Bharadwaja Naidu, who was joined by Academic Principal Sri.V.V.V. Naveen Kumar, Administrative Principal Sri.T. Pavan Kumar, Vice-Principal Sri.V.Suresh Kumar, and Academic Coordinator Mrs. P. Kanthi.

 

The assembly began with the national song, followed by the flag hoisting ceremony led by Dr. G. Bharadwaja Naidu. This ritual, performed with the presence of school management, fostered a sense of pride and patriotism. After the flag hoisting, students joined together in singing the national anthem, setting an honorable tone for the proceedings.

The assembly activities were designed to engage and inspire students holistically. The ‘Thought of the Day,’ delivered by a student, provided a meaningful message to start the day. Following this, students shared updates on current events through the news reading segment, while a series of short speeches and presentations allowed students to showcase their public speaking skills and build confidence.

In an inspiring prize distribution ceremony, Dr. G. Bharadwaja Naidu awarded prizes to top achievers of recent competitions and assessments. Winners of the Maths Surprise Test – 6 and top performers from the 5th to 9th classes for Periodic Assessment – 2, along with the 10th class for Periodic Assessment – 3, were honored with High Achiever Award. The recognition of their hard work encouraged them to continue striving for excellence.

 

Dr. Bharadwaja Naidu addressed the students with a message centered on personal growth and respect for school values. He underscored the importance of using respectful language, reminding students that maintaining the school’s values is essential, and that any actions against these values would be addressed seriously.

 

Additionally, Dr. Naidu offered practical advice on self-care during the winter season, recommending the use of body lotions and lip balms to stay comfortable in the cold weather.

Diwali is celebrated across India and other countries with significant Hindu populations.


With over 1.2 billion Hindus worldwide, Diwali is celebrated across India and other countries with significant Hindu populations. India leads with approximately 94% of the global Hindu population, followed by Nepal (81%), Bangladesh (8%), Indonesia (1.7%), and Pakistan (1.85%). Each country brings its unique cultural flavor to Diwali. In India, celebrations span five days, with homes lit by Diyas, adorned with Rangoli, and filled with family gatherings, prayers, and fireworks.

Nepal’s Tihar, a variation of Diwali, includes honoring animals like cows and dogs as symbols of prosperity and loyalty. Indonesian Hindus, primarily in Bali, celebrate with temple rituals and traditional dances, emphasizing community and devotion. In Bangladesh and Pakistan, Diwali is observed more modestly, with prayers, lamps, and family gatherings, showing that while the traditions vary, the spirit of Diwali remains united in honoring light and hope.

In India, amid this joy, Diwali also highlights an irony in our approach to environmental concerns. Pollution from vehicles, factories, and other sources affects the air we breathe year-round, yet heightened concern often surfaces only around festivals like Diwali. Firecrackers, while briefly increasing pollution, are criticized more than the steady pollutants that impact air quality daily. In cities like Delhi, where pollution levels can double during Diwali, this momentary focus on firecrackers overshadows the need for consistent environmental awareness year-round. This selective concern reflects a contradiction—emphasizing environmental protection primarily during festivals, rather than addressing the persistent pollutants that affect our health daily.

In contrast, Hindu communities worldwide are adopting more sustainable Diwali practices. For example, in Bali, Indonesian Hindus celebrate with an emphasis on simplicity, focusing on lamps, prayers, and floral decorations, without the pollution linked to firecrackers. This approach highlights a meaningful way to honor Diwali’s spirit without compromising environmental responsibility.

At its heart, Diwali is a celebration of light, unity, and renewal. By choosing eco-friendly practices, we honor these values while contributing to the health of our communities and the planet.
