The resource people asked questions to check on the awareness of the students on road safety measures.

They informed us about the consequences of minors driving vehicles on the road and also about the three courts in which cases of accidents caused by different kinds of vehicles are filed. Information on different kinds of penalties that can be levied in case people drive without any license was also shared with the students.

Finally, a few short videos that can spread awareness were shown to the students.
This session was very informative and encouraged many students to stay safe and keep others safe.
Disaster Management
Disaster management in schools is crucial for preparing students to respond effectively to natural and man-made disasters. It equips them with life-saving skills and knowledge.
In our school, class IX B, under NSS conducted discussions on various disasters, including earthquakes and fires. Students learned dos and don’ts during emergencies. Students of the class prepared skits to simulate disaster scenarios, teaching other classes how to react during and after a disaster.
Students were educated about the importance of staying calm, finding safe locations, and assisting others. They learned not to panic, avoid elevators during earthquakes and follow evacuation protocols.
Mock drills and skits were conducted to illustrate proper responses to fires and earthquakes, enabling students to grasp essential safety measures in emergency situations.
We emphasize the significance of post-disaster rescue and first aid training. Students are trained to provide basic medical assistance and support to victims, until professional help arrives.
Disaster management in schools is vital to ensure the safety and well-being of students and the entire school community if any disaster occurs suddenly in the school.
Tech Buddy

An innovative project for the National Service Scheme (NSS) that could bring about a significant positive impact for hearing-impaired children.
The project idea centres on creating a recreational video that incorporates hand signs along with synchronized audio and visuals. The primary aim of this project is to assist hearing-impaired children in building creativity, effectively through sign language. We have attached a sample video to provide you with a few of the videos made by the students of class IX C.
The project involves classes from Mr. Rudresh from Noida deaf society, presenting these concepts visually and through hand signs, we aim to bridge the communication gap that often exists for hearing-impaired children and then visiting the Noda Deaf Society School and Vocational centre on 15th October 2024
Here are some key points to highlight about our project:
1. Inclusivity – This project emphasizes inclusivity and aims to provide equal learning opportunities to all children, irrespective of their abilities. It aligns perfectly with the ethos of our school to nurture well-rounded individuals.
2. Innovation – The integration of audio, visuals, and hand signs in the instructional video makes this project truly unique. It leverages technology and creative communication methods to make learning more engaging and effective.
3. Community Impact – The project’s impact extends beyond the classroom. It has the potential to positively affect the lives of not only the hearing-impaired children but also their families, teachers, and the larger community which fosters thinking and creativity.
This project is a unique opportunity to make a substantial contribution to society while learning valuable lessons about empathy, teamwork, and the power of education.
