CLASS TRIP - IB Diploma Second year

Twenty nine students of DAIS along with two teachers visited Sir H.N Reliance Foundation Hospital at Girgaon, Mumbai, on Monday, 21st August, 2017. The students who are currently in their second year of the IB Diploma Programme received a warm welcome by a team of senior doctors and administrative staff headed by Mr. Jeetesh Karpani, Deputy Head of Administration, Sir H.N Reliance Foundation Hospital. The students were first shown a short film to introduce them to the history of the hospital, its philosophy and world class facilities. Thereafter, they were divided into three groups and were taken on a tour of some of the sophisticated equipment used in the hospital. The students who have taken up Physics at the Higher Level, were thrilled to have a first-hand experience of the application of the theoretical concepts learnt in class; in the operation of the X ray machine, Ultrasonography, MRI/NMR, ECG and CT scan. They volunteered to get their Ultrasonography and ECG done, and impressed the highly trained technicians and doctors with their pertinent queries. The tour that lasted for almost two hours, ended with high tea served for the visitors at the Kapol Niwas. It was evident from their enthusiasm, that the students enjoyed the trip and returned with quite a few valuable take aways.
