“Check, check… Checkmate!” “Woah, what a strike!” were phrases echoing at St. Peter’s indoor stadium on a warm Saturday afternoon. Our school’s Inter-House Carrom and Chess Competition was conducted under various categories.

They say all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Well, we say, what if work itself was play. That’s what our students at St. Peter’s did today. A team from Play2Learn taught our students that work is as interesting as play. Our excited and energetic students learnt fractions through a dice game, states of India and its importance by Ludo, periodic table using the game Battleship,  place values through card game, Math concepts by Mathonopoly and science through Snake and Ladder! Learning has now become fun for our students.

Peter’s boasts of it’s rich music culture. Today the School Choir resumed practice for this academic year. The School Choir not only performs every morning at the school assembly, they also perform in church services, rotary meetings and singing competitions. We can’t wait to hear their sweet melody.

Edwin Hubble once said “Equipped with his five senses, man explores the universe around him and calls the adventure Science.” As students, we embark on this adventure called Science everyday and hence, it is thrilling to have a day dedicated to this adventure. National Science Day is celebrated on 28th February in remembrance of Noble Prize winner C. V. Raman for discovering the “Raman Effect”. On account of National Science Day, the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA) conducted an Inter-school competition in Quiz and Painting based on the topic “Modern Astronomy”.

Seventy eight students from various schools participated in the competition. The students who participated in the quiz competition were allowed to explore the museum while the art competition was going on. The students participating in the Quiz were provided with forty questions based on physics which were to be answered in twenty minutes. Ammu Elizabeth and Ananthalakshmi of Class 11 won third place in Quiz . Ammu Elizabeth also won third place in the Painting Competition. The certificates and prizes were presented to the winners by Mr. Selventran (Scientist In-charge), Mr. Kumaravel (Asst. Scientist In-charge) and Ms. Kasthuribai (Librarian and accountant of IIA Observatory, Kodaikanal). The winners received interesting books as prizes which was very exciting.

A lot of activities relating to Science take place in our school, including the recent science exhibition conducted by the juniors. We are thrilled to participate in these activities and competitions, and enrich our knowledge on a daily basis.
