India is well known all over the world as a country of cultural and traditional festivals. Our new year also begins with the harvest festivals which are celebrated with different names such as Lohri, Pongal, Bihu and Makar Sankranti. Each region acknowledges the gifts of nature and say thanks for a bountiful harvest. These festivals are deemed to mark the arrival of the New Year and spring and relieve people by giving a warm bid to the chilly cold winter. When there is harvest, we celebrate the arrival of the first crop by sharing it with everybody. You are getting the benefit of all your labor and your hard work. In villages, at home, people used to get the first sugarcane, the first bag of paddy and they share it with everyone. And in this country sharing also has some knowledge & wisdom in it. Every celebration brings some wisdom with it. That’s the beauty here. 4

In Maharashtra, they give sesame seed and jaggery balls (laddoos). Sesame seed is the oil grain; sesame oil is the main oil that people use. Sesame, for some reason, is considered very precious. Sesame seed and jaggery are distributed to everybody and they say ‘You have this and let sweet words come out of your mouth’. This is the wish or greeting that we say. This tradition has been there for a long time. This is also astrologically connected. Makar Sankranti is celebrated when the sun enters Makar rashi(Capricorn) which marks the end of winter. In the southern hemisphere, you must be celebrating Kark Sankraman and not Makar Sankraman. Our beginning of ‘spring’ is beginning of ‘fall’ for them and our ‘fall’ here is beginning of ‘spring’ in Australia. So, the celebrations are also linked to seasons. Makar Sankranti is celebrated when you come from harsh winter into a pleasant sunshine. ‘Til’ or the Sesame is the smallest grain. When people in India die, there is one prayer for the soul. They take Sesame seed & some water and tell them ‘be content, be content, and be content’. 4

The children tell their parents or other deceased people ‘your desires are like this sesame seed, just drop them, the world is so big, you move on, the universe is so huge, drop your small earthly desires, we are here to fulfill them, and you become content.’ This is called ‘tarpanam’. ‘Triptiyataam, triptiyataam, triptiyataam’, three times we say ‘be content, be content, and be content’. We tell the deceased ones, that if you have any unfulfilled desires then just let go of those and move on We get stuck in small-small things, or anger or jealousy on somebody; we tend to hold on to something, some person or situation. If we hold on to such things then we will not be able to move forward on our journey. That is why it is said that drop all these desires and be content, be content, be content. Be like a sesame seed; very humble, small and be sweet like jaggery. “Let your ego be small like sesame seeds and words sweet like jaggery.” This is the greeting or wish you make to each other. Not only give or exchange some material thing to other but also some wisdom. Let your ego be small like seasame seeds and words sweet like jaggery. 4

YOUR CHILD NEEDS YOUR PRESENCE MORE THAN YOUR PRESENTS Every child is unique. Parents should help them to learn what they are good at, what they enjoy and what makes them feel good about themselves. They should work with children to discover and nurture their personal learning strengths and abilities. Research shows that a child’s emotional style, activity level and social nature are present during the first few months of life and are unlikely to change much over time. Learning about others and about the self helps children to feel positive about themselves and have a good relationship with others. As parents, we should focus on improving social and emotional skills of children, this includes boosting child’s confidence and self-esteem. The children who are more confident will behave positively. They will be more confident to achieve their goal. Children should be supported in developing emotional literacy to help them develop their skills in communicating how they are feeling, rather than acting out emotions in potentially inappropriate ways. We should be affectionate when our children are physically or emotionally hurt. If parents have shown extravagant or caressing affection , then the child will feel less stressed or anxious whatever the hard situation he /she faces in life. Unconditional love and affection from parents can make children emotionally happier. Lack of affection impacts children both mentally and physically. This can lead to all kinds of health and emotional problems throughout their lives. If a child’s early experiences are defined by missing or distorted nurturing, then it can lead to stunted emotional and cognitive development. 1

Encourage your children when they do well. If a child feels good about himself/herself, she will be really confident . Whenever PTM is conducted, do meet your child’s teacher to discuss his/her progress. Ensure that your child attends school regularly and provide quiet , comfortable place for studying at home and make sure that your child is well rested on school days and on the day of a test. If they are tired, then they will not be able pay attention in the class. It is normal for parents to want to do things for their children, but if they get older it’s vital to let them do more things on their own. You should not be involved in every decision that your child makes. Allow them to make decisions on their own and raise them as an independent thinker. ‘Nurturing a child’s sense of personal worth and therefore hope and dreams for a wonderful future is perhaps the most important responsibility of every grown up in a child’s life.’

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravishankar says: Happiness has nothing to do with your position in society, in your company, or wherever you are. Happiness should be de-linked from all that. Happiness is just a habit. You should make it a habit to be content and happy.” GURUDEV SRI SRI RAVI SHANKAR It is rightly said that much of the happiness and peace we get in life depends on how we look at things and people. There are two ways of referring to the glass of water- half empty or half full. If a person calls it half empty, his/her mind is on the empty part of the glass-at what is not there. So he/she is not able to enjoy the half glass which is actually there and available. On the other hand, if a person sees the filled part of the glass, he/she feels good about it.Then he/she can go and do something about filling up the other half. If we see only what we do not have, we waste our energy complaining about it. But if we see what we have and feel good about it, we have the energy to get what we do not have. . 3

When we are positive, it adds to our strength. The way to make a better world is not just in correcting or improving things, people and situations around us, but also in adjusting our own vision of the world, by correcting our way of thinking. The road of life has ups and downs, if we equip ourselves well, physically and mentally, our journey through life will be easier and more fulfilling. Most of the time we throw away the valuable opportunities which could allow us to truly experience a life of purpose and meaning.If we are not able to enjoy the little pleasure which happens in our life , we will regret for the same in the future. Gratitude is one of many positive emotions. Gratitude is pausing to notice and appreciate the things that we often take for granted, like having a place to live, food, clean water, friends and family .It is strongly and consistently associated with greater happiness. Gratitude helps people feel more positive emotions, relish good experiences, improve their health, deal with adversity, and build strong relationships. 4

Happiness= Reality – expectation The Law of Expectations says that whatever you expect with confidence, positive or negative, becomes your reality. If you confidently expect to succeed in your life, it will happen. When you learn to let go of your unrealistic expectations, an open road unfolds right in front of you. We should think about the present and be happy with trivial things which gives us happiness than to think of something which is beyond our control. .

Teachers’ Corner EXAMS ARE LIKE FESTIVALS CELEBRATE THEM Festivals are the most awaited events of the year, similarly we plan exam month diligently in advance. Festivals bring out the best in us, exams too are meant to bring out the best in us. This article is for all the students who are appearing for examination. They are the Exam Warriors- brave youngsters taking part in the festival of exam. -Exams test your current preparation, not you. In this hyper- competitive era of relentless pressure from all the sides, it is easy to think that exams are a matter of life and death, and that failure is final. But exams are not about life and death. Do not get bogged down by any pressure, particularly the fear of failure. One test or exam cannot define a person life is so much more than that. Prepare appear and do not wear failure. - Be a warrior not worrier . Every one of us is designed for exceptional things. Exams are just one of the challenges and opportunities that are in store for us. Overcome all challenges and shine. Ironically, the most commonly known fear is the fear of unknown. It is natural to be mildly concerned before exams. However, worrying all the time will not help. Being a perpetual tension cannot be in fashion. Trying to appear serious may win you sympathy but not success. Take the example of Rani Lakshmi Bai. During India's first war of Independence when the imperialist forces were closing in, she had two choices- to be a worrier or a warrior. She did not bow down and choose instead to fight, thus being immortalized as one of the greatest freedom fighters India has ever produced. -Knowledge is permanent - pursue it The aim of learning is to gain knowledge. When knowledge is pursued, marks will automatically follow as a by- product. The journey of acquiring knowledge is itself a rewarding experience. It leads you to joy and does not burden you with pressure. Focusing simply on marks not only builds undue pressure but also limits what you absorb. You will acquire selective knowledge. If you study to gain knowledge no question will seem tough. Enjoy learning for what it is, and not with any limitations. 37

Teachers’ Corner -It's your time- make the most of it Another name for time management is self- discipline. Proper time management is an effective tool for performing well in exams. Every individual is blessed with a unique abilities. These abilities are best channeled through quality time management. So, time management is nothing but ability management. With any effective and organized schedule, you can take one thing at a time instead of thinking about everything all the time and any possible pressure is divided. Pressure, when concentrated and accumulated, becomes tough to handle. Thus, proper time management is also proper pressure management. Technology is a great teacher – embrace it . When it comes to technology, it is essential to have a balance. Get attracted to it, not addicted. Use it smartly and soundly but never let technology get the better of you. Use technology to become smart and to unwind smartly. -To do your best, take adequate rest in between long hours of preparation, memorizing facts, practicing solutions for mathematical problems and writing exams, take adequate rest. -Your exam, your methods-choose your own style . There is no ideal style of answering questions. Find your own unique style while keeping in mind the requirements of each question and the subject. Always remember to double check every question, especially when data and numbers are involved. -Presentation is key- master it . Quality of content is certainly of prime importance in your answers. Along with it, your presentation needs attention too. Good presentation is like beautiful icing on your favourite cake- it enhances the taste and leaves a lasting impression. Ensure that your emphasis on presentation is not time –consuming. Make it a part of your style.

KINDNESS LIKE A BOOMERANG ALWAYS RETURNS Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love. Kindness can mean different things to different people. The meaning is in how YOU choose to show it. Be it through empathy, acceptance, kind gestures, thoughtfulness, the possibilities are entirely up to you. Kindness might look like being helpful or showing empathy. It may mean doing nice things without expecting nice things in return Kind is love; love is kind. Think about what love entails and what it means to love someone, that’s kindness. It’s being selfless, caring, compassionate, and unconditionally kind. Like love, it takes practice to understand and feel it. We share love with others through kind acts such as a smile, a nice word, an unexpected deed, or a planned surprise. When we offer these acts to others, we make people feel good; we pass along hope; we promote peace; we show the power of kindness. Kindness is grace. We are humans, and therefore, we make mistakes. We can be kind in our response to ourselves and others when those mistakes occur. This means thinking before speaking, forgiving before seeking revenge, and thinking about long-term relationships instead of short-term pride. If we could all remember that none of us are perfect, we would be a lot kinder to each other. Offer grace, be kind.

Teacher's Corner Kindness is Good for the body Kindness has been shown to increase self-esteem, empathy and compassion, and improve mood. It can decrease blood pressure and cortisol, a stress hormone, which directly impacts stress levels. People who give of themselves in a balanced way also tend to be healthier and live longer. Kindness can increase your sense of connectivity with others, which can directly impact loneliness, improve low mood and enhance relationships in general. It also can be contagious. Looking for ways to show kindness can give you a focus activity, especially if you tend to be anxious or stressed in some social situations Kindness is Good for the mind Physiologically, kindness can positively change your brain. Being kind boosts serotonin and dopamine, which are neurotransmitters in the brain that give you feelings of satisfaction and well-being, and cause the pleasure/reward centres in your brain to light up Whenever you add value to other people’s lives unknowingly you are leaving footprints on the sand of time that lives on forever. Help those who need your help , contribution is a primary human need, moral responsibility and one way to find deep fulfilment. No matter how small you may think you are, you can make a difference. Kindness is the only tool that can make our world a better place. As we progress in our lives, we have a choice to become someone who is attractive not just by their looks but by their acts of kindness, love, respect, honesty and loyalty they show. It is not just about how you behave in meetings, but how you live your life and treat other people, especially those from whom you cannot gain anything.

PROCRASTINATION PROS AND CONS Procrastination is the act of unnecessarily postponing decisions or actions. For example, if someone delays working on an assignment until right before its last date. Right! We all have done that. Many people have a tendency to look down on those who procrastinate, and for good reasons. It is as if the cons of procrastination undeniably outweigh the pros. Procrastination is not at all bad.

The fact that modern society assumes action equals progress while procrastination leads to stagnation is not always valid. While procrastination usually leads to things not getting done, there are also times when it can be beneficial. Let me explain… How many times have you thought to yourself that you would have made a better decision with a bit more deliberation? Delaying gives you time to develop your thoughts and is especially critical when making important decisions. Even a few hours of putting something off can let your subconscious mind work on the issue(s) in the background as you attend to other tasks. You may just come up with other important insights that will alter the trajectory of your decision. Procrastinating can also give you the time required to seek out others’ opinions before you take that next step. This is important because it gives you the chance to consider different viewpoints, including those that contradict yours. It enhances creativity, one may also feel less time bound some time due to procrastination.

Special Educator's Corner But beware it can also turn into a Permanent Problem specially for people who simply wait for things to come to them. Fears, uncertainties, and overthinking can make procrastinating seem like a better choice than action. But this is not the path to take if you want to live a meaningful life. You should instead think big but start off with small steps and keep it steady, as always said, ‘Slow and steady wins the race.’ Hence consistent practice makes permanent, so the more you practice, the easier things will become. Putting things off until the last minute can create unnecessary anxiety and even confusion. It also makes it difficult, if not impossible, to accomplish your task(s) should anything unexpected happens. Therefore, one should understand that same solution does not fit all the problems and so we need to be wise in deciding when to procrastinate and when to act immediately. Anything used wisely will always do wonders. This reminds me of the quote by DAWSON TROTMAN

“The greatest amount of wasted time is the time not getting started.”

GREEDINESS Once upon a time there was a trader. He travelled from one village to another village on foot for some work. One day he became very tired, so he ate under a tree and was taking rest. He was very thirsty, so he thought of water and immediately he saw a glass of water in front of him. He was shocked . After a while, he felt hungry, so he thought of food. In a minute, he saw a plate of his favourite food in front of him. He was elated and he relished the food . Then he got to know that whatever he wishes for will be granted . Then, his greediness made him to ask for more gold coins. As he wished, he got gold coins too. He was very happy. Then he thought in his mind ,"What if thieves come and steal the gold coins". His last thinking was also fulfilled but now the thieves came and killed the trader and stole the gold coins . The moral of the story is that the things which is free of cost is harmful for everyone.

HUMANIMAL PALS Once upon a time there was a girl called Iris. She loved animals. All she wanted was to have a pet of her own. One day, her parents planned a trip to Himalaya during vacation. Well, she had a lot of fun over there. While she was walking on the glittering white snow as the chilling breeze passed by, Suddenly, she heard an animal panting. She was scared but she wanted to know the situation. Iris confidently went towards the direction of sound. When she reached the spot, she was heart-broken. She saw a wolf had died, there was a puppy standing next to the wolf which made Iris even more emotional, puppy was wolf’s baby ! Iris went to the pup and tried to hold it. She heard someone hither & thither next to her. She saw two men ready to make another kill at the pup. Iris wanted to save poor pup but the killers had already aimed to shoot. A miracle happened! Killers ran out of bullets. Iris started to throw rocks on shooters. Meanwhile, Iris’ parents reached searching for her and shooters ran away in fear. Her father immediately called animal-rescue team; they tried to revive her but in vain. Pup was not ready to accept the death of her mother and didn’t want to leave her. It was crying constantly; it opened its eyes full of tears and looked at Iris. Pup saw love in the eyes of Iris and realized that not all humans are bad. Pup saw her and she came to the pup, hugged her. Pup felt safe . Iris took care of pup; Iris named it “Lunna”; she was beautiful just like Moon. Both of them spent good time together, playing-together. They thought they will live together forever. Unfortunately, they had to be separated for their own good. The rescue people took Lunna to the zoo, this was really difficult for both of them. They surely didn’t want to stay away from each other, but what they could do than to accept the fate. Iris thought she needs to do something to stay in touch. 55

Student's Corner Lunna didn’t eat, sleep or play and kept thinking about Iris. The zookeepers tried everything, but nothing worked. Iris was feeling the same way as Lunna , as she was missing her best friend. A few days later Iris’ father was posted in the same town and Iris came to meet Lunna. Iris and Lunna both were super happy to see each other. Lunna did everything that Iris told her. She ate a whole feast, she played with Lunna. Even Lunna had a lot of fun with Iris. From that day onwards both were called Human-Animal Pals. Iris stayed in the town and everyday brought treats for Lunna. This jolly time didn’t last much, and Iris’ father transferred to another part of the country. They could not meet that often or maybe not at all. They both never met each other after that. Still they both remember each other in their hearts. Time passed by, Iris grown 18 years old, she went in a jungle camping in the rain forest. She was walking by greenery landscapes. She suddenly noticed that something had an eye on her. She started to walk quickly till she reach the end of the cliff and it was still following her. She gathered courage and looked back, it was a lion ! She was extremely scared and thought it is the end. When the lion was ready to make a kill, out-of-nowhere Lunna pounced on the lion fearlessly. Lunna fought like a soldier. Lunna defeated the lion, and he ran away like a coward. Iris learned that Lunna is an Alpha and had found her place. They ran to each other and hugged. Lunna remembered that Iris saved her from shooters years ago. So, she had to save Iris at any cost and she did it with bravery and courage. They lived happily ever after.

THE SEED OF TRUTH Long ago, the country of Gandhara was ruled by the King Vidhyahara. The King did not have any children who could take over the reins of the Kingdom after him. He was an avid gardener, spent a lot of time tending his garden, planting the finest flowers, fruits, and vegetables. One day, after he finished working in the garden, he proclaimed, “I will distribute some seeds to all the children in the Kingdom. The one who grows the biggest, healthiest plant within 3 months will became the prince or the princess.” The next day there was a long line of anxious parents and children outside the palace to get a seed and grow the best plant. Pingala, a poor farmer’s son was among these children. Like the King, he too was fond of gardening and grew a beautiful plant in the backyard. He took a seed from the King and planted it in a pot with great care. Some weeks passed and he plied it with water and manure, but the plant did not appear. Pingala tried changing the soil and transferred the seed to another pot but even by the end of three months, nothing appeared. At last, the day came when all the children had to go to the King to show the plant they had grown. They started walking to the palace holding beautiful plants in their hands. Pingala’s father had watched his son working hard with the seed and felt sorry for him. Why don’t you go to the King with the empty pot?’ he suggested. ‘At least he will know you tried your best.’ So Pingala joined the others outside the palace, holding his empty pot in his hands. Soon the King arrived and began his inspection. The pots held flowers of different shades, beautiful and healthy, but the King did not look happy.

Student's Corner At the end of the line stood Pingala and when the King reached him, he stopped in surprise. “Child, why have you come with an empty pot? Could you not grow anything?” Pingala looked down and said, ‘Forgive me, Your Highness. I tried my best, I gave it the best soil and manure I had, but the plant would not grow.’ Now the King’s face broke into a smile. He enveloped Pingala in his arms and announced, ‘Here is the crown prince! I had given everyone roasted seeds, which would never grow, just to see which child was the most honest one and would admit he or she had not been able to grow anything. Only this boy told the truth. I am sure he will rule this Kingdom one day with truth and honesty.’ Indeed, that happened. When the King grew old and died, Pingala, who had learnt everything from him, came to the throne and ruled Gandhara justly for many years.

THE TALKING NATURE The roads of Machi city was flooded with cars and smoke. In the middle of blaring horns, an old man was wondering whether to hold on to his walking stick or to close his ears while crossing the road.

Sakshi was watching all this through the windows of her apartment. Slowly she raised her eyes to the hot scorching sun and thought to herself “It is impossible to live here now. There is noise and pollution all around. The beautiful birds who used to visit me in the evenings are all gone. People are falling ill very often and getting clean water for drinking has become difficult now”. She thought for a while and then made up her mind “Ok enough! I’m leaving this place. I cannot live in this environment any more….. Where do I go? Yes, I remember my friend talking about this beautiful village little far named Mura. Let me move to there”. Sakshi took out her car and started the journey to Mura. After few hours of driving slowly ,she started noticing that the crowd has gone down and the places start looking greener… few more kilometers and she could feel her lungs enjoying the fresh air. The signboard read “Welcome to Mura. The nature here talks to you”. The search for ideal location for her house ended up near a green ground next to a line of big trees. 59

Sakshi thought “This is the right place for my home. Let me get the branches of that big teak tree to build my home. She took out her polished, pointed axe. She was about to cut the tree but suddenly a voice stopped her. Sakshi turned around and was surprised to see a cute, beautiful squirrel talking to her. “Oh dear lady, why are you cutting my sweet home." Sakshi replied “Oh Squirrel, I need this tree to build my new home.” Squirrel: Why do you need a new home? I have seen you in an apartment in Machi city. Why don’t you stay there? Sakshi: Don’t ask me. It’s very hot there. Squirrel: But why… why is it hot? Sakshi: We don’t get any rain there now. Squirrel: What do you think is the reason for no rain in Machi? Sakshi: Oh ! that is because there are no trees. Squirrel:So you want to make our Mura village also become a place like Machi? Sakshi thought for a while and said “Oh Squirrel! Forgive me. I will never cut a single tree from now on in my life. You have made me realize my mistake. Thanks to you for that. I know what to do. I’m going back to my Machi city. Sakshi started her drive back. On the way, she went to a plant nursery and bought lots and lots of plants. She started planting trees all around Machi city. Slowly the greenery returned. People around the city started joining her in planting more trees. She was respected by everyone and was called the “The Tree planter”. The air and water of Machi became clean and then one day Sakshi saw the old chirping birds at her window and next to them was our beautiful squirrel. This time , the squirrel didn’t speak but just smiled. Today Machi is a beautiful city. All thanks to Sakshi and the talking Nature.

AN ARTICLE ABOUT "TECHNOLOGY" Technology today has made life easier and better. As we look at the technologies, what is modern technology? Modern technology is machinery that makes life easier. For example, microwave ovens cook food easily without using any stoves and making a big mess. And dishwashers put all dirty dishes into the dishwasher and it washes them automatically. Modern technology makes things very easy to use and save time comparing it in old fashion way. Often a country’s level of modernization is measured by the ease with which people can communicate with each other. But modern technology also created problems. Technology also creates financial problems in families because most technologies are very expensive to buy like the computers, televisions, refrigerators, DVD system, and home theatre systems. People who cannot afford to buy this kind of technology live a stressful life. But there are more advantages in technologies than disadvantages. How is technology an advantage? Today technology is very important in society because it makes life easier to live on and less time consuming. Today technology has grown very much, making life easier.

SASYA LEARNING EXPERIENCE My name is G. Meenakshi. I participated in an event called SASYA. It was held in the Harvest International school - Attibele. As part of this event many types of competitions like Puppet tales, Riddles, Best out of waste, JAM event, Comic strips and Poo kalam were held. I took part in Puppet tales. My topic was “What if fish can talk?”. It was about water pollution in our city. When I entered the place (where the competition was held), I felt nervous. I saw everyone’s performance. I was the last one to perform. When the judges called out my name, I felt a bit confident. After the competition was over, all the students went to the ground to get their certificates. When they started announcing the results for Puppet tales, I became tensed. Soon I heard the words, ”G. Meenakshi of Sri Sri Ravishankar Vidya Mandir School, Bangalore East, has bagged the 3rd prize in Puppet tales”. I was awarded a medal and a certificate. Our school also won the overall trophy! I was very happy and I thanked God for the reward. My teachers and my friends appreciated me. Back at home my parents were thrilled to hear this news. I practiced very hard for this event. I learnt that hard work always pays. I also learnt a few tricks about puppet making and talking in different tones. I am thankful to the school and my teachers for this wonderful opportunity.

TIM AND JOHN'S ADVENTURE “Dad, can I ride my cycle?” asked Tim, “Sure” Dad replied. Tim scampered out of the door and leapt on to his cycle and rode to Old Boulevard. The first house on the left lead to John’s home, he rang the bell three times and he heard a doggy voice , “WOOF!”. The door opened and a boy came, “Seriously? Now?” said John, who was also trying to calm the hectic dog, Tucker. Tim snickered and replied, “Yes, and bring Tucker with you”. “I will get my cycle and will you get the leash, Truce?”, asked John, “Truce” Tim replied. Tim ran over to John’s bedroom and rummaged through his cupboard where he found the leash. As he was leaving, he noticed something in the room. It was a note, as he was about to take the note, John called, “Tim! Come!”. Tim expeditiously took the note and ran down the stairs where Tucker greeted him with a lick. They both hopped on their cycles, with Tucker scurrying along with them and Tim explained about the note, “…….and then I came back to you when you called me”. John said, “Let’s check it out. I think it belongs to me, The Great John Till”. They both found a tree to sit under. Tim began reading: To John Meenan, I don’t have much to say but listen to this: Highland Street, December 25th, you know the other details. Come to Fred ’s Place if you want to know more. -The White Lion “John, I think that the mailman got confused and gave it to you”, replied Tim. After one full minute of silence, Tim said, “let’s find this Fred’s place, I know a person who is a very old resident and knows all these places”. 64

An old man with a cane came, “What do you want?” asked the man, “Sir I want to know where exactly Fred’s place is” replied Tim. “Fine, go to Elizabeth Lane, last house on the right” and he slammed the door on them. Tim said, “Let’s find out tomorrow” They both hopped on their cycle and rode to their homes. The next morning, they both along with Tucker rode to Elizabeth Lane there they went to the last house on the left, they both heard a conversation where a man’s voice said, “Listen Johnathan, there is a warehouse on Highland Street, you will find a van full of gold, what I want you to do is threaten the driver so that he drives to an isolated location where we can smuggle the gold. All right?” then the other voice responded, “Sure”. Tim and John then rode back to Tim’s home and told his parents everything, “so that’s why you didn’t even eat your dinner last night” his mum exclaimed. Then his dad said, “Are you serious about this because if you are wrong, we might even leave this state”. “Yes, dad I am serious.” Tim replied. Then without a word , his dad rang up the police inspector. After the inspector came ,Tim and John began explaining what happened and the inspector noted the points and thanked them for informing him and he said , "The White Lion is a gang of dangerous men, but tomorrow instead of gold inside the van, there will be 4 armed policemen”. The next day, Tim and John rode to Highland Street and saw two cuffed men being pushed into police vans. “Best adventure ever.” said Tim. Don’t you agree too?

Student's Corner MY FIRST SUDOKU COMPETITION It was a party day in school as it was Children’s Day, and all my classmates were having lots of fun with different board games that we got from home. Kamala ma’am came to our class and asked us if we were interested in sudoku jam, comic strips and other competitions held by Harvest school. I nominated myself to the Sudoku competition. Sudoku is the game I always played in my summer vacations at my grandparents’ house. I used to collect all the newspapers that had sudoku puzzles and I tried to solve them. So, when I was selected for the event and told my mom that I was representing the school, she was happy and also asked me if I was confident as I didn’t have any formal training. She helped me by collecting few puzzles and I solved it for practice. Now the day of the event came, and I went to school with a regular uniform while my classmates had on the house colour dress. This was a totally new experience for me, and I started having so much excitement and fun. Kamala ma’am made me eat my breakfast before the prayer and I got ready to go. I went to Sumithra ma’am‘s cabin and with few other kids from different classes. We all set out for our journey to Harvest school where SASYA event was being held. My PP3 ma’am also came with us and we reached the school. The competition started. There were two rounds and puzzles were complicated. I cleared the first round, and in the second round we had to put more than 35 numbers correctly in30 minutes.

TOP MOMENTS OF FIFA Yash ~ The WOW MOMENT of the FIFA world cup was definitely

KylianMbappé’s outstanding performance. Mbappe gave his team a lifeline, putting away a penalty with nine minutes to go, but he was not finished. He followed it up with a sumptuous volley, bringing the score level and taking the match into extra time. It was his seventh goal of the tournament. Mbappe became the second player to score a hatrick in a World Cup final. The last time it was done was in 1966 by England’s Geoff Hurst. Even though I, at heart, am an Argentina fan, Mbappe’s performance was by far one of the best moments I have ever seen and the one I won’t forget.

The match was very intense for Messi and held lots of importance as it was his last. France was also a tough opponent with Mbappe as their headliner. Personally, the penalty shoot-out was the best part for me. It kept me on the edge of my seat as the match could go either way. Messi got the golden ball award, even his teammates got awards like golden glove to Emiliano Martinez and young player award to Enzo Fernandez.

THE MOST WOW MOMENTS OF FIFA WORLD CUP 2022 The 2022 FIFA World Cup was filled with lots of interesting moments, from major upsets and headless headers to the great example Japanese fans set for everyone. Like all other previous editions, the 2022 FIFA World Cup had shocks and surprises galore. Some of the most wow and memorable moments from the FIFA World Cup 2022 were : UNDERDOGS SHINING The world cup has shown why so many are drawn to the stage. This global sport is also an excellent leveller. It rates performance not reputation. It is where classics and underdogs, champions and dark horses all meet. Less favoured teams have embraced these virtues to ignite the stage. An early marker that we were in for a rollercoaster of a tournament was laid by Saudi Arabia, when they defeated Lionel Messi’s Argentina 2-1 in their opening group stage contest. A day later, Japan brought Germany to a shuddering halt with another 2-1 win. Top-ranked Brazil was stunned 1-0 by Cameroon, Tunisia shocked defending champions France 1-0 and Morocco, ranked 22nd in the world, defeated second-ranked Belgium 2-0. Japan defeated Spain 2-1 to top Group E. In an incredibly stacked Group H, South Korea scored in the first minute of stoppage time to beat Portugal 2-1 and sneak into the knockouts.

FEISTY PENALTY SHOOTOUTS This world cup had five matches whose winner had to be decided through the stress-inducing penalty shootouts, including the nail biting finals where France and Argentina both showed immense prowess. The two ‘round of 16’ matches of Japan vs Croatia and Morocco vs Spain resulted in Croatia beating Japan and Morocco thrashing the 2010 world champions, Spain. 74

Student's Corner The next two matches which resulted in penalties were the quarterfinal Argentina vs Netherlands and Croatia vs Brazil. In a huge upset Croatia beat the world number 1 team, Brazil, to get a place in the semi - finals and Croatia yet again showed their opponent to never mess with them in penalties. Argentina vs Netherlands was the only match other than the finals itself which came until a near death stage when it looked as if both the teams would do equally well in the penalties. UNBELIEVABLE GOALS Abdelhamid Sabiri in Morocco vs Belgium Morocco midfielder Abdelhamid Sabiri scored the first goal from a direct free-kick at the 2022 World Cup as his team beat Belgium 2-0 Richarlison in Brazil vs Serbia Brazil forward Richarlison had a moment of individual brilliance in a 2-0 victory over Serbia. In the 73rd minute, Vinicius Jr. fed the ball to Richarlison in the middle of Serbia's box. Richarlison controlled the pass by knocking the ball into the air with his left foot. He then turned his back to the goal before firing a scissor kick into the back of the net. Simply Stunning. Kylian Mbappe in Argentina vs France Kylian Mbappe became the first person since Geoff Hurst to score a hattrick in a World cup Final. Mbappe turned the game around for France when he made the first goal on a penalty and just 97 seconds later made the second goal equalising their score with Argentina. Later on in the game, During extra time, when the score was Argentina 3 to France 2, he yet again made his spectacular penalty equalising the score.

Student's Corner And last but not the least, the FIFA World Cup 2022 Finals will not be forgotten anytime soon and will go down in history as one of the most interesting matches ever played. It seemed to be in Argentina’s Favour until the 80th minute where Kylian Mbappe single handedly saved France and gave them a morale boost. Till the end of the penalty shootouts, the results were undecided and it could be anyone's game. But Argentina under the captainship of Lionel Messi bagged the title of World Champions and took home the trophy 36 years after Argentina lifted it under the captaincy of Football legend Diego Maradona. Needless to say Messi deserved the cup and his legacy is like no other.

TOP 3 MOMENTS IN FIFA WORLD CUP 2022 1.Messi fulfils his dream as he lifts the cup for Argentina!!!!

With a thriller of a final with many twists and turns ending on a penalty shootout ,everyone was tense during the whole game. But the world’s dream came true as Argentina won the WORLDCUP on penalties . Messi’s trophy cabinet finally filled up as he won the only one that was missing the World Cup Trophy. Argentina won their third World Cup trophy, 36 years after winning their last. Argentina extended their record for the most penalty shootout victories in FIFA World Cup tournaments by a team (6).Messi then became the first person to assist at five different World Cups. His assist to Enzo Fernández sealed a much-needed 2-0 victory for Argentina against Mexico as they sought to bounce back from their shock defeat to Saudi Arabia

2.Mbappe screams France back into finals:Firstly, with ten minutes left, Mbappés ball over the top to Randal

Kolo Muani lead to a penalty to France, which Mbappé slotted away with precision to within one. Then almost immediately from the kickoff, France won the ball back, worked it to Mbappé in the Argentine box, and from a tight angle, Mbappé volleyed the ball past Martinez in the Argentine net to drag France back into the final! From dead and buried to level in ninety seconds. Mbappé was then required to bail France out again in extra time. Trailing 3-2, France won another penalty with just four minutes left and from the spot, Mbappé became the first man in fifty-six years to score a World Cup final hattrick since Geoff Hurst in 1966 and with four World Cup final goals already, he is the top World Cup final scorer history. France might not have won, but Mbappé’s performance was the stuff of legend.

3. Morocco reaches WC SemiFinals:Ninety-two years after the first-ever World Cup, an African team was

still to win a World Cup quarter-final. If that was going to change this year, many assumed it would be Senegal, but instead it was the Atlas Lions of Morocco that smashed the glass ceiling. Morocco made shockingly easy work of their group, taking seven points out of nine before going on to face Spain. Morocco didn’t give the Spanish any chance, before going on to win the game on penalties setting up a last-eight showdown with Portugal. Just before halftime, Youssef En-Nesyri gave Morocco the lead, sparking deafening celebrations amongst the Moroccan supporters in the stadium and proving to be the difference on the day. Morocco played admirably in the semi-final but ultimately ran out of steam against France. Regardless it was a historic run, one that no one will ever forget.

Learning Experience from Sasya Competition It was a great opportunity to represent my school in Sasya interschool competition. I enjoyed Sasya competition, it was very fun doing it. I prepared a lot and I was also very excited to go there . I also learnt something new, I just did not go there to win or lose. Though I didn’t win ,I was not sad but I was happy as I learnt a lot and got a new experience. Finally, when they announced that S.S.R.V.M Bangalore East won the overall trophy, that time I was even more happy and thrilled.

Darsh Shroff(3H) Student SSRVMBE I got an opportunity to participate in SASYA-2022, an inter-school competition that had been conducted at Harvest International School. I was so super excited for the competition . I woke up earlier than usual as this was my first inter-school competition. With hopes of winning, we started our journey towards the school with a team of students and coordinators. The school was located away from the hustle and bustle of the city and was surrounded by lots of greenery. There were many other students from different reputed schools. After the competition, the results were announced and our school got the overall championship even though I didn’t win personally, I was overwhelmed with happiness . When we reached back , our vice principal, coordinators and our lovely teachers welcomed us with joy and happiness. At that moment, I realized that a competition was not about winning or losing but it was all about getting an experience, teamwork and having fun. I wish to bring more accolades to my school in future.

CAKE DELIGHT -ARECEPIE FOR CAKEAHOLICS!

Baking a cake is always fun, even if there is no special occasion. Out of all the cakes, this season of the year calls for making all our favourite plum cake. The plum cake is super delicious, loaded with all kinds of nuts, raisins and dates. There are two steps for making this. Soaking dry fruits: • 100 grams dates (chopped) • 100 grams raisins • 50 grams tutti frutti (green) • 200 grams mixed berry • 100 grams fig (chopped) • 50 grams apricot (chopped) • 200 ml grape juice

Firstly, in a glass jar we need to take the listed dry fruits above and soak them in 200 ml grape juice for at least eight hours or until the dried fruits absorb all the juice. We can now proceed to the second step of preparing the plum cake batter. The ingredients required for the cake batter are: •250 grams butter (softened) •300 grams brown sugar •50 grams oil •130 grams curd •300 grams flour 82

50 grams almond powder ¼ tsp baking soda 1 tsp baking powder ¼ tsp salt ¼ tsp clove powder ¼ tsp cinnamon powder 2 tbsp pistachios (chopped) 2 tbsp cherry (chopped) 2 tbsp cashew (chopped)

Firstly, in a large bowl we take butter and brown sugar and beat them well until they turn creamy. Now, to this cream we can add 50 grams oil and 130 grams curd. We need to continue to beat until the mixture turns creamy like frosting. Further, we add the flour, almond powder, baking soda, baking powder, salt, clove powder and cinnamon powder and mix them together. We can now add soaked dried fruits to our batter. We can also add 2 tbsp pistachios, cherry and cashew to give our cake a crunch. We need to now mix gently, making sure the dried fruits are well combined. The cake batter is now ready to be transferred to a cake tin. We need to make sure to line a butter paper at the bottom of our cake tin to prevent from sticking. The cake now needs to be placed into the preheated oven and baked at 160 degree for 1.5 hours. We can insert a toothpick to check if the cake has baked completely. The cake can be cooled and then unmoulded. Now our plum cake is ready to be served. Enjoying preparing and tasting the plum cake with friends and family makes it even more special in this season!

Wall Of Gratitude “Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance”- Eckhart Tolle Although these are only a few words that define gratitude, it encloses a deeper and unfathomable meaning. There is a distinction to be made between thinking about someone and recalling them at the last moment. This is when I realized that I've had practically everything handed to me just as readily, yet I've never bothered to acknowledge such deeds. My parents, friends, teachers and home with essentials. I assure you that these are more than plenty to live the finest life possible. However, most individuals around me crave luxuries to demonstrate their better status or to impress their peers. But life is more than simply taking; it is also about giving back. I am grateful for this opportunity to thank everyone in my life who has profoundly shaped me into who I am today. This made me realize that saying thanks is neither going to complete anything nor owing them something, what makes the difference is when you return the kindness to the people who need it at present. Gratitude is not a term that can be materialized in the form of money or gifts; it is an emotion that arises from the depths of your heart and allows you to be proud of yourself for all the good things you have done or that others have done in your life. It's sheer luck that we have individuals around us who believe in what we do. What we do is irrelevant; how we carry it out does, and this is one of the most essential things I've learned about appreciation in my life. My family, friends, and classmates have all had a significant impact on me, but how I intend to return it to them is what propels me to move forward and clear the hazy path ahead.

Wall of Gratitude

“Gratitude is the sign of noble souls.” -Aesop Gratitude is something we have been taught since a very young age, and it’s a life lesson that must never be forgotten. It is something we express when we want to thank someone or show our respect to them. In life, I have met many people to whom I want to show my sincere gratitude, but I either didn’t know how to express it or I wasn’t open enough to do so. But now that I am older, I know how to express my feelings and would love to show my gratitude to them. My friends are my biggest strength, and I would like to show my gratitude to them. Without them, I would never be who I am, for every moment I spend with them makes me realise that I have such a blessed life with people that accept me for who I am and help me unveil a new chapter in my life. My teachers are the most important people to whom I should show my gratitude. Their support, kindness, dedication, and ability to bear annoying students like me show the hard work they put in. And that all of their work goes unappreciated and hidden since there is no one to recognise the hard work and patience they put into teaching reinforces the need to express my gratitude. And of course, I can never forget my parents because they are the reason I have been able to live my life so freely. My parents are among the least judgmental people I know. Whenever I score poorly on school tests, rather than pressuring me to study, they always ask me why I got bad marks and encourage me to do better next time. They have kept my life so stress-free and joyful that I don’t know how to give them back all that they have given to me. All the people I mentioned here are just a few out of many. Many heroes never got a chance to wear a cape, and to them we must show our gratitude. The doc- tors and the social workers are the actual heroes who go unrecognized.

WALL OF GRATITIDE My daughter Nidhi has been studying in Sri Sri Ravishankar Vidya Mandir, Bangalore (East) from last 6 years and it has been a wonderful journey. We are happy with the values it inculcates in the students. These years have been very crucial building blocks of her life and the teaching methodology has brought cultural values in her. The Indian tradition which is practiced at the school has helped in building her personality. She is always excited to participate in her school events. She is given enough opportunities to showcase her talent in front of wider audience. This has made her a confident person. Teachers, coordinators and other staff members are approachable and helpful in resolving our queries. Even during the challenging times of pandemic, we received a lot of support from the school which made it easier to cope. Academically she has improved a lot. We sincerely express our gratitude towards the school for all the support. Jai Gurudev !!!
