A promising debut by AVM at the District Level Carrom Competition

July 24, 2015/0 Comments/in AVM Updates, Sports /by AVM Students

Team AVM participated for the first time in the District Level Inter School Carrom Competition on 23^rd July at J. B. Diamond School in the under 19 category. Teams from as many as 12 schools participated in the competition. Atmiya Vidya Mandir was represented by Rahulbhai Patel, our school’s Sports Captain and Pramanikbhai Soni (both from class 10).

The first match for AVM was against Varad School from Bardoli which we managed to win very comfortably. Our team stepped up the performance as we entered in the quarter finals. The quarter final match was against Shree Vasishtha Vidhyalaya. Without much trouble again, we won that match and entered into the semifinal. The semifinal match was against G. I. P School. It was a difficult match against a good team but we showed grit to reach the final of the competition.

The final was against the team of the host school J. B. Diamond. The final, as expected, was very competitive. With the narrowest of margins, we lost against the host team. However, the loss in the final did not stop the boys from AVM to be selected for the state level competition!

Considering this was our first ever participation in an Inter School Carrom Competition, it was a proud moment for the school team to be selected for the state level.

2015-16 Leadership Seminar

July 23, 2015/0 Comments/in 21st Century Skills, AVM Updates /by AVM Students

The Seminar started with a small inauguration programme in which the students of Vasishtha Vidhyalaya sang a melodious song. Soon after the inauguration programme, we were divided into two groups and each group had different sessions on each day. The sessions were conducted by Mr. Vivek Patki and Mr. Sachin Kamath. The sessions on day one covered topics of Communication Skills, Self Esteem and Goal Setting. The lunch breaks and other short breaks in the middle of each session helped us make new friends.

The next day, everyone was eager to reach Vasishta Vidyalaya as soon as possible because there was a lot to learn. It was the last day of the camp so everybody was determined to grasp whatever was delivered. The second day was more interactive as it included more activities. The sessions on the second day covered Time Management, Self-Management and Team Building. These activities helped us to learn how to work as a team and how to lead effectively.

The camp ended with vote of thanks and distribution of certificates to all the participants. Moreover, anyone who wanted to share their opinions, suggestions and learning were welcome. The seminar ended with a happy and a sad note; happy because we learnt many good things and sad as we had to leave our newly made friends.
