The main goal of this event was to introduce the kids to the concept of applying their knowledge of numbers and basic mathematics in a real-life scenario while having a blast!

The kids from each Class were divided into 4 groups where they set up their own shops displaying a variety of healthy food items, fruits and crafts specially handmade by the kids themselves just for this exclusive event. The students were assigned the role of Shopkeeper, Assistant Shopkeeper, Recorder, Cashier and Bag Seller. All the participants showed up in their colorful aprons, hats and stickers according to matching themes of their respective stalls and duties.

The shopkeepers gave a detailed explanation of each item in their stalls and with their persuasive skills, did very well in convincing customers and visitors to grab lots of goodies from their shop. Another fun part of the shopkeepers’ duty was the counting of money from the sales and handing the changes back to the customers. This was done by applying simple addition, subtraction, multiple and division just as we see in a regular grocery store.

The recorders kept every detail of the items sold by noting them down in tally sheets while also maintaining accuracy so that the numbers tally with the products. They did their work very diligently so as to avoid any errors.

Special mention to the fruit sellers who did a commendable job in operating the weighing scale. Here they were required to weigh fruits according to the customer’s needs, and not by definite units like 1 kg , 2 kgs etc but everything in between, in the form of fractions. The use of mathematics here was really impressive. Such a joy to watch little kids being so innovative.

To sum it up, one would say this year’s supermarket was one of the best, if not the best so far because we got to witness so many new and exciting items which were on-the-spot for the very first time like Pancakes and Popcorn which was a huge hit among the customers.

Everyone played their roles and duties superbly. The event also received warm feedback and appreciation from visitors, both young and old who enjoyed every bit of it. Looking forward to a much bigger and better Supermarket next year.

The Nursery class planned a zoo-cum-picnic trip to the Zoological Park in Rangapahar on 15-09-2023. The kids had been eagerly awaiting the trip, and when the day finally arrived, their excitement was palpable. As it was their first zoo trip, their enthusiasm was evident through their laughter, singing, and jumping on the way.

Upon reaching the venue, we had a group photo session with the kids. They were then taken inside the zoo, where they saw gibbons, bears, deer, pythons, porcupines, hornbills, and more, and had the opportunity to take pictures near the animal enclosures. Afterward, the kids settled down for lunch, where they rested and enjoyed their packed lunches in the cool shade.

Next, the kids visited the butterfly garden located in the middle of the animal enclosures, where they admired the beautiful flowers and took pictures. We proceeded to see the tigers, which the kids had been eagerly looking forward to, but unfortunately, they couldn’t catch a glimpse. Despite this, they quickly moved on and continued with the sightseeing, anticipating a return visit next year.

The kids were filled with curiosity about what they saw and couldn’t stop themselves from asking numerous questions. The trip was a success, providing not only enjoyment but also valuable educational insights into the diverse forms of life on our planet.

Though tired at the end of the day, the kids couldn’t stop talking about the animals they saw on our way back to school. Overall, it was a memorable trip, and the kids will enthusiastically share their stories with their parents and friends.

The program was hosted by Madam I. Tainla Ao, Supervisor of Star Kids. It began with an invocation by Miss Lhingneichin Roselyn, the Class Teacher of Class-A (Blue Dolphins).

This community-centric event aims to foster responsibility and mindfulness in children from an early age. It exposes them to the commercial world, instilling self-sufficiency and independence for their future prospects. The program’s objective is to help students utilize number concepts such as counting numbers 0-10 and counting on in 10s and 100s. It also teaches them practical skills like using weighing machines, keeping tally, and recording beyond classroom applications.

Through this event, a child can polish their conversation skills, learn persuasion techniques, and adapt to a calculative mindset. It contributes to personality development and boosts children’s confidence, aiding their overall development. The event also exercises the mental abilities of the students, enhancing their reasoning skills and decision-making abilities.

The event was a resounding success, enjoyed by all. It concluded with a benediction prayer from Miss Risemenla, the Class A Teacher of the Shooting Stars section.

Report by Miss Lhingneichin Roselyn.

Charity is the act of extending love and kindness to others unconditionally, which is a conscious act but the decision is made by the heart, without expecting a reward. When Charity is carried out selflessly, it is a one- way act where a person gives but asks for nothing in return.

Star Kids Charity week commenced from 5th till 9th June.It aimed at lending a helping hand for the upliftment of those in need.It is a great initiative taken out to reach out to orphanages, NGO’s, indigent society etc through different contributions made by the student’s families.Contributions in the form of money, eatables,stationaries such as storybooks, notebooks,pencils etc were handed over.

                    The generous givers were celebrated with badges as a sign of appreciation for their donation.In addition the respective teachers imparted the importance of showing kindness to the needful making the cause more meaningful and that’s how we can conclude that the Charity Week was a great success.
