The Sarv Sahodaya Art & Photography Exhibition unfolded on Thursday, 23 November and Friday, 24 November 2023, at Sadhu Vaswani International School for Girls. In the domain of painting, students were immersed in a themed exploration. They were tasked with creating a visual interpretation of “Kabir ke Dohey” by incorporating the given folk arts. Our students, Pragya Khanna and Niharika Thakur of grade XI  engaged in the intricate process of depicting Kabir’s verses, namely; “कबीर सो धन संचिए जो आगेकंूहोइ” and “मरखू संग न कीजिए, लोहा जल न तिराई”; using Warli Art from Maharashtra. The ensuing process not only enhanced their artistic skills but also provided a unique lens through which to comprehend profound philosophical concepts. In the photography segment, the theme “Expressions to Impressions” encapsulated the journey from capturing raw emotions to creating lasting impressions. Lavnika Nanda of grade X submitted the photograph titled ‘Ballet of Souls’ and Atharva Chauhan captured ‘Radiant Transformations’. The students delved into the world of visual storytelling, using their lenses to convey the nuanced transitions from initial expressions to enduring imprints. Beyond mastering artistic techniques, they gained a deeper understanding of cultural expressions and the ability to seamlessly intertwine art with literature. We celebrate the students’ accomplishments and the dedication of educators who embraced this initiative. The integration of art into our curriculum not only fostered creativity but also underscored the importance of interdisciplinary learning, laying the foundation for a well-rounded and dynamic educational environment.

Freehand drawing is one of the best means of improving hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills among children. It stimulates the creative centre of the brain and improves observation skills like perception of size, space and proportion. The theme for the KG Intra Class Competition was ‘Christmas’. The young kindergarteners enjoyed drawing and colouring a Christmas scene in their own individual styles. Their vivid  and imaginative compositions were a source of joy to all who saw them.

Ever imagined turning the theoretical journey of “Separation of Substances” into a thrilling hands-on adventure? The grade VI students did just that by diving into the world of Science, armed with curiosity and their Science kits. No dusty textbooks here—just the sheer joy of handpicking, sieving, and winnowing to unravel mixtures! This learning-by-doing escapade wasn’t just about reinforcing theory; it was an immersive exploration that brought scientific processes to life. Beyond the classroom’s four walls, this class celebrated the power of practical, fun learning experiences. 

Picture a learning experience where the mysteries of acids and bases are unlocked not in textbooks but through the enchantment of everyday items… And the seventh graders did just that in their Science class. The task at hand involved deciphering the acidic or basic properties of household substances like toothpaste, detergent, vinegar, lemon juice, and baking soda. Turmeric paper, acting as a pH indicator, transformed this exploration into a vibrant spectacle. Taking the learning experience a step further, students seamlessly integrated art into their scientific endeavor  using turmeric paper as a canvas, creating drawings with a soap solution. The chemical interaction, rooted in the basic nature of the solution, added an artistic dimension to the exploration, showcasing the power of multidisciplinary approaches and the fusion of learning, fun and art beyond the confines of traditional classrooms.
