On 14th April 2026, the German students of classes 10 and 11 participated in the first session of the “DeutschDialogTreff” organised at Goethe Institut/Max Müller Bhavan, Kolkata.
The session focused on discussing matters concerning the theme “Stress” through simple German dialogues and words.
From discussing words and phrases about things like Prüfungsergebnisse (exam results) and Krankheiten (illnesses) that make one stressful, to creating funny, short dialogues and skits with assigned group members about coping up with Stress through methods like “Musik hören” (hearing music) and “Zeit mit Freunden verbringen” (spending time with friends), it was a fun-filled and enriching opportunity for the participants to enhance and practise their spoken German skills outside the school environment.

The Home Science students of Class 9 visited the Indian Institute of Cerebral Palsy on 16th March, 2025 and did collaborative artwork with students there as part of understanding development in their curriculum.
Modern High School for Girls implemented a new initiative, “Showcasing My Year” for Classes 6 to 9 and 11 during the concluding week of the Academic Session 2025-26 which was a week-long student-led reflection on learning. This was envisioned as a reflective platform where students presented the learning that they had meaningfully assimilated over the course of the academic year. This initiative was not mark-centric and instead, it foregrounded learning that had made deep sense to the student—knowledge they had internalised, interpreted, and made their own. Students presented their learning through projects, models, artwork, demonstrations, presentations, or other creative forms. The showcase was presented before peers, teachers, and parents, reinforcing the idea that learning is a shared and dialogic process. Parents were invited to participate as thoughtful listeners—asking questions, encouraging reflection, and appreciating the individuality of each student’s learning journey.

Reading broadens imagination, strengthens language skills, improves concentration, and deepens understanding of the world. By setting aside time solely for reading, the school reinforced the idea that books are not merely academic tools but gateways to creativity, empathy, and knowledge. Through such initiatives, students gradually develop the habit of reading for pleasure and personal growth.
