Celebración del día de la Paz en Ebebiyin

Los niños y niñas del colegio de Jesús María en Ebebiyin celebraron el día de la PAZ  manifestando los deseos para un mundo en el que vivamos el amor y demos vida a nuestro alrededor. 
En las clases se ha trabajado la paz a través de un cuento.

En otro momento han ido poniendo sus manos en un gran árbol como símbolo de la PAZ.

Prescolar ha dado color a la vida plasmando sus manos en el árbol.

En Primaria, cada niño ha escrito sus palabras y deseos para la paz en una mano del papel.
También hemos aprendido canciones y bailes de la paz que pudimos cantar el día 30 de enero.

Harold D'Souza's visit to CJM - Vadodara

We, at Convent of Jesus and Mary Girls' High School, Vadodara organised a felicitation programme in honour of Mr. Harold D'Souza an ex-student of the 1980 batch on the 9^th February 2016.

Mr. Harold D'Souza is an Indian American activist who was appointed by the then President of U.S.A., Mr. Barack Obama, to the Advisory Council against Slavery. 

It was a moment of pride and honour when Mr. Harold D'Souza shared his long, torturous and painful struggle about his experience with slavery and attributed his sense of courage and strength to fight during this journey, to the values gifted to him by the school and his teachers.

All his former teachers, Mrs. Anna Lobo, Mrs. E. Francis, Ms. Amy Fernandes, Mrs. V. Mathew, Mrs. Nilima Varghese, the P.T.A. members, Sisters of the Community and his classmate, Cheryl Francis were present for the function.

Fr. Dr. Lancy Lobo and Fr. Jeetu D'Monte were also present. Fr. Dr. Lancy Lobo shared his views about slavery and congratulated Mr. Harold D'Souza for his heroic fight against bonded labour.

Ms. Cheryl shared her school experiences with Mr. Harold D'Souza as her classmate and Mrs. Francis spoke of him being a shy student.

Our Provicial Superior Sr. Magdalene presented a shawl, Manager, Sr. Tara presented a Memento and our Principal Sr. Nirmala gifted him with a sapling.

It was a memorable event which promoted inspiratlional thoughts to the students on the real life, gruesome experiences shared by Mr. Harold D'Souza. 

"Kindness Day"

WSG concludes Catholic Schools week with "Kindness Day"

During the first week of February, we celebrated Catholic Schools Week.

Our Catholic identity is the core of our community. We celebrate being a Catholic school all year long through special masses and daily prayer; but this week in particular, we celebrated our school community. One of the many important aspects of being a Catholic school is maintaining the fun, safe, and respectful learning environ­ment that our girls know and love.

The students had an exciting week full of themed dress-up days, and ended with "Kindness Day" on Friday.

The girls started the day of kindness with a prayer service followed by various activities in small groups demonstrating the positive ways in which they can respond to mistreatment.

To further grasp the effects that an individual's words or actions can have on another, the girls learned about the "ripple effect".

Each group was given a bucket of water; and each student was given a handful of sprinkles that represented their actions. As they sprinkled their items into the bucket, they could see and really understand how far their actions can go.

I was moved by the simplicity of the exercise and the thoughtful responses it elicited from our students.

The day ended with each student taking a pledge to always ask, "What Would Jesus Do?" before responding to a difficult situation.

Creating a harmonious and pollution free world

Celebrating the road safety campaign was initiated by the ISS India HSE (Health Safety and Environment) in order to make people aware about the national road safety in the Indian subcontinent. The aim of this campaign was to emphasize and accentuate people about the need of safe road travel by observing simple rules.

According to the information, it has been noted that approximately one lakh people lose their lives per year in the road accidents. Or some of them suffer from life threatening problems such as mental trauma, loss of memory, loss of hand or legs. It increases the importance of road safety measures. India has a very huge volume of traffic and commuters, so it is very important to make people aware of the safety measures and road pollution brewing from the huge volume of traffic.

It also need efforts from different stakeholders such as the community, transport sector, insurance sector, health sector, police, legal sector, educational institutions, highway engineers, vehicle manufacturers, public agencies, NGOs and etc. Students are given a huge opportunity to participate in the road safety week programme so as to bring about a change as future and responsible   citizens of the country

In collaboration with the RTO, i.e the regional transport office, the ISS organised a public rally for school children in the first week of October. More than 230 students of St.Joseph’s Pashan participated in the rally, which included the forming of a Human Chain from Senapati Bapat Road to Pune University Circle, a distance of about 1.5 km. They conveyed the message of safe driving by obeying simple rules and also about maintaining vehicles in order to ensure pollution control. 

The school undertook this activity as JPIC aims at creating a harmonious and pollution free world.
