LKG-A

Interactive Assembly

A lively and interactive assembly on the theme “Safety” was conducted by the students of LKG-Aster on 15th September 2025. The program began with a warm welcome, followed by the thought of the Day and a short news update.

We believe it's never too early to teach children the importance of staying safe at home and on the road. Children learned simple safety rules like not touching sharp objects, staying away from fire and electricity and keeping toys in places at home. They also understood the importance of following traffic signals, while walking on the footpath and crossing the road carefully with an elder. To make learning fun, the children performed role plays as pedestrians, drivers and traffic police and presented dances with safety messages. On the whole the assembly helped children learn safety in an enjoyable way while spreading awareness among all.

The programme was made interactive with questions and answers with the kids and a fun quiz.

Yuva Diwas Special

On the occasion of the birthday of our honourable Prime Minister  Shri Narendra Modi Ji, on 14th September the NCC cadets and students of Arwachin International School actively participated in a 3 km run organized by Gandhi Smriti to mark Yuva Diwas.

The event witnessed the enthusiastic participation of youth, showcasing the spirit of fitness, discipline, and dedication towards the nation. Our students had the proud opportunity to share this inspiring platform with Olympian and Padma bhushan awardee, Ms. Saina Nehwal, her father, and Shri Vijay Goel Ji, who graced the event as chief guests.

This remarkable occasion not only promoted the values of health and fitness but also instilled in the cadets a strong sense of patriotism and youth empowerment. The event truly embodied the message of “Youth Power in Nation Building.”

Project MATE (Mind Activation Through Education) by AIIMS and CBSE

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), in collaboration with the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi, inaugurated the Project MATE (Mind Activation Through Education) training programme on 26th August 2025 at AIIMS, New Delhi.

The programme brought together nearly 50 school counselors and wellness teachers from CBSE schools across the Delhi-NCR region. Our school counselor, Mrs. Aafreen Sarfaraz was selected to attend this training by the CBSE. This pioneering initiative, developed at AIIMS Delhi, focuses on adolescent wellness, aiming to enhance resilience, build coping strategies, and foster meaningful peer connections through the innovative concept of “MATE-5.”

The training was inaugurated in the presence of eminent dignitaries including Prof. Dr. M. Srinivas (Director, AIIMS), Shri Rahul Singh, IAS (Chairperson, CBSE), Shri Himanshu Gupta, IAS (Secretary, CBSE), Prof. Dr. K.K. Verma (Dean Academics, AIIMS) and Prof. Dr. Nand Kumar (Department of Psychiatry, AIIMS). Their insights on the importance of integrating education and health, building resilience, and normalizing mental health in schools set a strong foundation for the week-long sessions.

Over the five days, she engaged in interactive workshops and discussions facilitated by experts from psychiatry, psychology, and communication. The training covered a wide range of themes such as:

• The bio-psycho-social model of health
• Resilience building and coping strategies for adolescents
• Anxiety management techniques
• Parental sensitization and family roles
• Nutrition and lifestyle awareness
• Peer support systems through the concept of MATE-5

One of the most valuable aspects of the programme was the emphasis on creating safe and supportive environments for students where mental health is treated as an integral part of overall health. The sessions highlighted the need to address loneliness, stress, digital challenges, and emotional disconnection among today’s youth with structured, positive interventions.

As a counselor, this experience was enriching and empowering. The strategies and tools shared during the programme will greatly enhance the ability to support students in developing resilience, emotional well-being, and meaningful peer connections.
