రిషిత (6వ తరగతి) చెప్పిన ప్రసంగం: “మాట మనిషిని మాణిక్యం చేస్తుంది, మట్టి మనిషిని చేస్తుంది” అనే మాట చాలా గొప్ప అర్థం కలిగి ఉంది.
మనం ఎలా మాట్లాడుతామో, మన మాటలతోనే మన వ్యక్తిత్వం తెలుస్తుంది. మంచి మాటలు మనిషిని గౌరవనీయుడిగా మారుస్తాయి. మర్యాదగా, ప్రేమగా మాట్లాడే వ్యక్తిని అందరూ ఇష్టపడతారు. అదే విధంగా కఠినంగా, అసహనంగా మాట్లాడితే మనకు ఎంత జ్ఞానం ఉన్నా కూడా మనపై నమ్మకం తగ్గిపోతుంది.
మట్టి అంటే శరీరం — దానితో మనం పని చేస్తాం, జీవితం సాగిస్తాం. కానీ మన మాటలతోనే మన హృదయాన్ని, మన ఆలోచనలను ఇతరులకు తెలియజేస్తాం. అందుకే “మాట మనిషిని మాణిక్యం చేస్తుంది” అంటారు.
రిషిత చాలా అర్థవంతంగా, స్పష్టంగా మరియు ఆత్మవిశ్వాసంతో ఈ విషయాన్ని వివరించింది. ఆమె చెప్పిన తీరు అందరినీ ఆకట్టుకుంది. 👏
The sparkling celebration of Diwali, also known as the Festival of Lights, was held with great devotion and enthusiasm at Greenwood High School, Hasanparthy, Hanumakonda, on October 20, 2025. The celebration beautifully captured the spirit of joy, fervour and cultural heritage while spreading a strong message of environmental responsibility. This year, the school chose to celebrate Diwali in an eco-friendly manner, without burning crackers, to show concern and care for nature.
Reason for Celebrating Diwali
Diwali is one of the most significant and widely celebrated festivals in India. It marks the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. Across the country, homes are illuminated with lamps, and families come together to share happiness and blessings.
For Hindus, it signifies the return of Lord Rama to Ayodhya after fourteen years of exile. For Jains, it marks Lord Mahavira’s attainment of nirvana, and for Sikhs, it is celebrated as Bandi Chhor Divas, commemorating the release of Guru Hargobind Ji. The festival also includes the worship of Goddess Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth and prosperity, who is believed to visit homes that are neat, bright, and filled with devotion.
Historical and Mythological Connections
Diwali has many legends associated with it. The story of Lord Krishna and the demon Narakasura is one of the most well-known. Narakasura, a powerful demon king, caused great suffering in the world. Lord Krishna, with the help of his consort Satyabhama, defeated him and freed the captives, bringing peace and joy to the people. This victory is celebrated as Naraka Chaturdashi, which precedes the main day of Diwali, symbolizing the triumph of righteousness.
Celebrations at Greenwood
The celebrations at Greenwood School began with the decoration of the campus using colourful rangolis, traditional lamps, and bright floral patterns. The entire school was filled with a festive atmosphere, radiating warmth and happiness. A special Puja was performed to seek the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi symbolizing wealth, wisdom, and purity. Students and teachers participated with devotion, offering prayers and singing bhajans, creating a spiritually enriching environment.
Creative and Eco-Friendly Activities
This year, Greenwood students celebrated Diwali in an eco-friendly way. Instead of burning crackers, they focused on spreading light through creativity and care for the environment. Workshops were organized for students to make diyas, greeting cards, and decorative items using clay, paper, and natural materials.
Our School Director Sri .Dr. G. Bharadwaja Naidu shared thoughts on reducing pollution, using eco-friendly decorations, and celebrating festivals responsibly. The message of “Clean, Green, and Safe Diwali” was highlighted throughout the celebration.
Sharing Festive Joy
Traditional sweets were distributed among students and staff, spreading happiness and togetherness. The management appreciated the students for their active participation and responsible approach to celebrating the festival. The day concluded with heartfelt greetings and cheerful smiles all around, truly symbolizing the essence of Diwali.
Leadership and Guidance
Our Honourable Director – Sri. Dr. G. Bharadwaja NaiduGeneral Manager – Sri. A. Prabhu Kumar, Academic Principal – Sri. V. V. V. Naveen Kumar, Administrative Principal – Sri. T. Pavan Kumar, and Vice Principal – Sri. V. Suresh Kumar took active part in guiding and motivating teachers, staff, and students. Their encouragement and presence .made the celebration more meaningful and memorable.
The Diwali Celebration at Greenwood High School was not only a festival of lights but also a celebration of awareness and responsibility. By avoiding crackers, students demonstrated their concern for nature and the environment. The day helped everyone understand that the true light of Diwali shines from within — through good deeds, unity, and happiness. It was indeed a memorable occasion that blended tradition, culture, and environmental care in perfect harmony.
Have you ever painted a picture to explain a story? Or sung a song to remember a science concept? That’s exactly what Art Integration means! It is a way of teaching where art is not only a subject of its own, but also a tool to make other subjects easier and more enjoyable.
Instead of just reading and memorizing, children get to draw, act, sing, dance, and create – while learning important lessons in Math’s, Science, Social Studies, and Languages.
Why do we need Art Integration?
The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and CBSE guidelines tell schools to bring more art into classrooms. The reason is simple: art makes learning joyful.
When children express ideas through drawing, drama, music, or crafts, they understand the topic better and remember it longer.
Art also builds important life skills: creativity, teamwork, confidence, and respect for culture.
How does it help students?
Better learning: A history lesson can become a play; a science concept can be shown through a model or dance.
More fun in class: Children enjoy learning when they are active and creative.
Cultural pride: Using local art forms and traditions in projects helps students connect with their roots, and also learn about the art of other states through the Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat programme.
All-round growth: Along with knowledge, students also grow socially and emotionally.
What does CBSE say?
CBSE has made art-integrated learning an important part of school work:
Every student from Class I to X must take part in at least one art-integrated project in each subject during the year.
At least one project should include the art form of a paired State/Union Territory to encourage cultural exchange.
These projects are not extra work – they are part of the internal assessment and help children show what they have learnt in creative ways.
How can we do this in school?
Projects and Models – For example, making posters about water conservation in Science, or drawing maps and folk art in Social Studies.
Storytelling and Drama – Acting out a lesson from English or History.
Music and Dance – Using rhythm, songs, or dance steps to explain concepts.
Clubs and Celebrations – Art, drama, and music clubs, as well as exhibitions during annual functions and festivals.
Teacher–student teamwork – Subject teachers and art teachers working together to plan activities.
In Simple Words…
Art Integration makes classrooms happy places! It helps children:
Learn with interest
Express themselves freely
Discover their culture
Grow into confident, creative individuals
When art and academics go hand in hand, learning becomes not just about marks, but about joy, imagination, and life-long skills.
“When children learn with art, they don’t just study lessons – they experience them.”

As part of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 experiential learning initiative, the students of Greenwood High School, Hunter Road, Warangal, visited the Hanamkonda Raithu Bazaar today.

P. Taranya, a student of Greenwood High School, Hasanparthy, Hanumakonda, shared her thoughts on the topic “Technology and Its Unfair Advancements.” She explained how modern technology, though highly advanced, has negatively impacted traditional art forms such as painting, drawing, and handcrafting. In earlier days, people expressed their creativity through manual effort and artistic skills, but now machines and digital tools have replaced much of that work. As a result, handcrafting, labor, and manpower have declined, reducing the value of human creativity in art and craft. Taranya encouraged everyone to balance technology with traditional skills to preserve the beauty of handmade art.
