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
