Dear Parent,

Greetings from DPS-Miyapur!

A child has a special way of adding joy to every day!

September was an eventful month with an eclectic mix of learning, fun, creativity and exciting

activities for the pre-primary and primary children and the first term examinations for the senior

classes, V, VI, VII and VIII. While the students of the senior classes focused on their examinations,

the primary and pre-primary students engaged themselves in various informative and entertaining

tasks.

The first event of the month was the colourful ‘Fancy Dress’ competition conducted by DPS-

Miyapur for the lower Kindergarten students on 4th September 2018. Rudolf Steiner, the founder of

Waldorf education, believed that imaginative play in early childhood is the key to creative thinking

during the adult years. When children engage in dress-up play, their imaginations are given free

reign. There is no limit to who, where, or what they can be. Children put in their best efforts to

make their character come alive with confidence as they showcased their innovative, imaginative

ideas and costumes. The competition was centred on the theme “nature. It was great fun to see

children dressed up as sun and the rainbow, clouds and trees, flowers and butterflies, mountain and

seas, peacocks and fish holding placards saying “save tree, save water, save life”. While others

came dressed as characters from mythology.

This competition had many powerful messages along with their energy packed performance. The

children who stole the show are:

animals, blue teddy bear and trucks were stuck on wave of blue oceans. Children also brought small

toys, paper crafts, small household objects in Blue Colour from home to share with the class during

show and tell that were all set on the table. Teachers and children were dressed in hues of blue.

dolphins as group activity. It was an absolute fun-packed learning experience.

“All I really wanted to know, I learnt it in kindergarten” said by famous author Robert Fulghum.

Sorting and classification are the beginning concepts of children developing math skills. Recognizing

groups of objects requires logical thinking, understanding the relationship between the different

groups hones analytical skills. “The Minute to Win” competition based on the concept of sorting and

classifying of beads of different colours and shapes was conducted on 11th September, 2018 for Upper

Kindergarten at DPS Miyapur. In the prelims, children were allowed to set their own pattern. They

were also encouraged to help each other, when finished. They exhibited amazing skills like playing

fair, sharing, putting things back in place after using, not taking beads that were not theirs. The final

round of the competition was more challenging and thrilling. This contest was a play-way method to

reinforce exciting knowledge. It turned out as a great platform for learning rather than winning. The

winners were:
