Through this program, the gifted students get a chance to augment their abilities beyond the scope of the curriculum, as was envisioned by our Principal and Director Ms. Vandana Marwaha.
The morning of 24th January,2023, saw the convergence of young innovative minds of grade-9 in the annual Exquisite Minds’ Program 2022-23.
Under the English segment, there were two very innovative, creative, and completely student-driven projects aimed to improve grammar, writing skills and comprehension skills of students through gamification and through a website. The name of the first project was A RAY OF HOPE, and the second, SPARK FORWARD. The students put in their best effort, and the result was two brilliant projects which aimed at easing the learning process of the middle school and the primary school students.
In science, innovative projects were made and presented after months of research and effort by the scientific-minded dipsites of our school. These presentations included the Ion Gate, Pressure-Powered Electricity Generator, magnetic doors, and lockers. It was amazing how the young minds worked together and came up with such brilliant ideas.
