CREATIVITY DEBATE CLUB

Being in the Debate Club was a rewarding experience. It enabled us to
enhance our public speaking abilities, learn to think critically and argue
CLUBS successfully, and develop a better awareness of many political and social
issues. Most importantly, it increased our appreciation for many viewpoints
on life and living. The need to come up with well-informed and logical
arguments spontaneously was challenging. To be able to argue persuasively,
we had to continually investigate and stay up to date on current events.
Overall, Debate Club was a highly rewarding experience. In many ways it

introduction of the sophisticated game of bridge. Bridge Club, which combines strategy

DANCE CLUB

We started our dance journey by warming up with exciting dance activities like JustDance. Following that, we danced to Bollywood songs
like Ghagra, London Thumakda, and Manja, combining Indian and Western dancing traditions. In keeping with the Navratri holidays,
CODING CLUB students learned famous Garba steps such as the Popat. We practised our choreography talents through improvisation sessions. Being in
the Dance Club was an enjoyable experience, as the 11th graders were helpful in teaching us new sequences and choreographies.
This club allows students to improve their programming skills. The club invites
students of all skill levels and lets them pick between Java and Python as their
chosen language. Students can proceed at their own pace. Recently, the club
has also encouraged students to develop their own projects, which is a
wonderful method for them to put their skills to use. Students in the beginner
group learned about arrays, iteration, and conditional statements, while
students in the intermediate group solved competitive programming
challenges. Overall, the Coding Club is a fantastic resource for students
wishing to improve their programming abilities.
