Vases from Waste

On 21st October, we were asked to bring items such as plastic bottles, paint, jute rope, glue, scissors, woollen thread and some decorative items to make vases out of these waste plastic bottles. We helped each other, shared, and had lots of fun! Sandra ma’am invited a special guest to judge the competition, Mrs.Priya Jaykesh, who spoke to us about the importance of this activity and showed us a few sample vases she had done. They were truly wonderful. Though it was a tough competition, Mrs.Priya chose the best vases. She awarded them with the amazing vases with plants in them, that she had made herself.

Thanks to our teachers and lovely friends, we had a great time!

World Peace day

World Peace Day at St.Peter’s

The Bible says, “Depart from evil and do good; Seek peace and pursue it.” (Psalms 34:14)

Peace is the state of tranquillity or quiet, and the freedom from civil disturbance. It is accomplished with love.

When should you maintain peace?

  • In times of trouble
  • During a fight

What we did
We all had lots and lots of fun thanks to our dear teachers! We hung all our doves up on the ceiling, and had a short assembly where we took a lot of photos and Joy ma’am gave a speech about that special day. We came back to school the next day and were delighted to see all our photos on the notice board! It was truly awesome.

Thank you all for your efforts because of which we had a wonderful Peaceful Day!!

Several successful people are all-rounders who have excelled in academics and sports. St.Peter’s places adequate importance on sports and this can be seen through several sports activities conducted throughout the year. On July 16th, the Physical Education department along with the sports secretaries conducted the Athletic Meet. Students were encouraged to participate in this tournament that includes events like running, shotput, long jump, discus throw and relay races.

The Meet was kick-started by all students taking an oath, which was delivered by the sports Secretary. This ensures everyone is aware of fair play and sportsmanship.
Each House ( Summer, Spring, Autumn and Winter) were allotted a place to be seated, from where students could cheer on their respective house athletes. Every house had athletes for all events, with boys and girls competing separately.
All athletes were motivated by their cheering houses and put their best foot forward in every event. The air was filled with excitement and energy as the competitions were tough and close.

After a half hour break for refreshments, winners were announced. Each winner earned points for their houses, which would eventually be tallied at the end of the year to announce the Best House.

Results of the Athletic Meet:
1st place – Spring House; 2nd place – Autumn House; 3rd place – Summer House and 4th place – Winter House

Everybody left the field with a sense of euphoria and energy that we believe can only be experienced through sports!
