Factory visit

Preprimary students visited the manufacturing plant for Parle-G biscuits where they had an exciting experience of visiting the shop floor.

They got to see the entire manufacturing process for the biscuits right from raw material to finished packaged biscuits. The students were explained the entire process through a kid-friendly documentary before visiting the production line [private area, hence photography was not allowed].

All the children enjoyed the unique experience of unveiling the BTS of their favourite biscuits adding to their learning and experience.

GDS HERITAGE TOUR - Bhimbetka Rock shelters
"We are not makers of history, we are made by history." - Martin Luther King Jr.

Students of GDS had a breathtaking and memorable experience of observing the late stone age cave paintings - first hand. Cave paintings at Bhimbetka rock shelter are dated approx. from 8000 B.C.E. to medieval period.

The Rock Shelters of Bhimbetka are in the foothills of the Vindhyan Mountains on the southern edge of the central Indian plateau. Within massive sandstone outcrops, above comparatively dense forest, are five clusters of natural rock shelters, displaying paintings that appear to date from the Mesolithic Period right through to the historical period.

Of particular interest to the tourist are the Auditorium Rock Shelter, Zoo Rock and Boar Rock in Bhimbetka Cluster. The earliest endeavour here other than for mere run of the mill activities for survival is the engravings of small cup like depressions at the end of the Auditorium Rock Shelter, which is dated to nearly 100000 years. Near the end of this tunnel there is a cluster of painting depicting a hunter, deer, tiger cattle and stylised peacock. Further ahead on the same path one comes across the Zoo Rock Shelter, which qualifies as the most densely painted rock shelter, paintings spanning from the Mesolithic to the Medieval. The paintings here include animals like: elephant, rhinoceros, boar, barasingha, spotted deer and cattle and snake, etc. Later paintings include battle scenes painted in red and an elephant painted in white. The Boar Rock, which is the last among the rock shelters accessible for tourist has a depiction of a mythical boar with horns that is many more times larger than the human being chased by it.

MEGA PROJECT event at @Gurukul - The Day School @gurukul_thedayschool

How can the success of a learning system be defined?

For us it's an ability of an institution to inspire children to delve into affairs of human life - past and present - and dig out the meaningful inspiring facts from them to enrich their wisdom.

That's what we do in GDS.

The grand annual event of Mega Project is the proof of our success in “Man-making education”. We had Dante Alighieri's mind and creativity explored in stunning performance as well as one of the most glorious Indian empires brought to life by breathtaking exposition by a 7th std girl. Her study was so deep that she could make us live the Chola period by her unending flow of words.

We had Nano technology researched and presented thoroughly, at the same time a 5th grader doing our “Nadi pariksha” with solemnity of an Ayurvedacharya, followed by science behind it explained.

There was no limit for subjects and depth of researches done by students. Maths, science, technology, music, characters, literature, folk arts, fine arts, artists, history, philosophy everything that is human creation and endeavor, is in the grasp of our children.

What we appreciate is the efforts and hardwork put in by the whole family that sharpens the mind and intellect of our children. Evaluations are not just based on knowledge and the research, but also about the body language, presentation skill, vocabulary, relevance and everything that a presenter needs in the modern world.

Information may become obsolete tomorrow. What is eternal is the urge to know, desire to expand horizons of our own personality, fly above limits of mundane life and see the beauty and grandeur of life and society in totality.

At our campus, teachers, children and parents try to bring this into reality.

"Education is not learning of the facts, but training of the mind to think."
- Albert Einstein

Imagine a day in school where classrooms, corridors, every floor and everywhere across the campus is decorated with student artwork.

There's an informal atmosphere of being in your second home.

Add to it an exciting sense of purpose, hard work, determination, confidence and a readiness to prove one's capacities and show that everything is achievable.

This is what a Mega Project event at GDS feels like. It is an event where parents-students work together to present the culmination of tedious research of students to an audience, which is equally curious and encouraging.

It is an annual event of presentation of Research Projects on a wide variety of topics across biographies, arts, current affairs, economics, philosophy, environmental sciences, culture, technology, history, society, and a plethora of other topics from around the world.

Glimpse of a music session at GDS.

"...educating through habits, by imparting by the melody - a certain harmony of spirit, that is not science, and by rhythm - measure and grace. Music puts order in the child's soul by training him to feel pleasure and pain properly, even though he may not understand what the proper way to feel them would be."
- PLATO

Pre Primary
Red day

The 'Red Day' celebration was a wonderful learning activity in GDS for Pre Primary students which helped children to sort and classify objects based on colors there by reinforcing cognitive skills. It was a scintillating day with innocent faces gleaming and reflecting brightness, joy, curiosity and a happiness which follows a successful task completion.
