Moments of Unity
9 B A community's spirit shines for all to see.
In our 9B journey, bold and free,

Through every lesson, game, and cheer,
We stand as one, year by year.
United in our Yoga sessions, and feeling so calming,
Minds at peace and spirits charming.
Breathing deep, we stretch, we flow,
Finding strength in Surya Namaskar, slow.
Dandiya celebrations with colors bright,
Spins and twirls in festive light.
Rhythms echo, sticks collide,
Laughter dancing side by side.
Annual Day, a stage so grand,
Stories told by heart and hand.
Lights shine down, the curtains rise,
Dreams take flight before our eyes.
On Sports Day's track, being one we race, we run,
Victory gleams beneath the sun.
Cheers erupt, the posters sway,
Sweat and class spirit pave the way.
Students share wisdom to hearts so true,
A testament is Jaisal, who guides with a vision new.
Teaching chess, each move with care,
Helping his community rise and dare.
Towering herds of elephants we saw
the beauty of wildlife we were in awe,
A class strong like a pack of lions
In Vantara we were zoology's true scions.
Through every moment, loud and clear,
These moments mark our cherished year.
A community, a class, forever made.
Our spark will never fade.
FROM THE HEARTS OF THE PAST TO THE HANDS OF THE FUTURE- Samika Khanna & Neil Agrawal
COMPASSIONATE COMMUNITIES!
As we write this, thinking about the future, we find ourselves reflecting on what it truly means to be part of a
compassionate community. It is more than just a group of people, it is a shared commitment to care, support, and
uplift one another. It is built on kindness, strengthened by understanding, and sustained through inclusivity. In such
a community, connections deepen, resilience grows, and a more harmonious world takes shape.
Communities surround us in countless ways, both big and small. Take, for instance, something we experience every
day, the Preamble that plays each morning at school. It is more than just words; it is a reminder of our Indian roots,
traditions, and heritage, grounding us in a shared identity. We see the strength of community in our own 9B class, a
family that has grown together over twelve joyful years, with each new member enriching our journey. And beyond
the classroom, we witnessed the true power of unity during Annual Day, when DAIS and NMAJS came together to
create a breathtaking, unforgettable production. PHSE TIME
Further more, every year, the streets of India come alive with the glow of Diwali
and countless other festivals. From Kashmir to Kanyakumari, communities
unite in celebration, bound by the warmth of tradition, togetherness, and
shared happiness. But beyond these familiar gatherings lies the largest
community of all, humanity itself. No matter where we come from, we are
connected by our emotions, our hopes, and our stories. It is through
understanding, empathy, and support that we build a world where kindness is
our common language and compassion is the force that binds us together.
Yet, as we write this, the world faces conflicts and crises that threaten to divide
us. Greed, power, and politics often drown out empathy and love. We owe it to
each other, to our planet, and to ourselves to protect what makes us human. So,
future us, how are we strengthening our communities? Are we lifting others
up? Are we choosing kindness over indifference, unity over division?
Let us promise to never forget that a compassionate community is not built
overnight, it is nurtured through small acts of care, empathy, and
understanding. If you're reading this, remember: the power to create a better
future lies in our hands.
With hope and belief,
Us, Today
