Academics
Special extra classes were in-progress for class

The
students of STD VII CIE did an experiment STARCH TEST. The children
tested green leaves to find out if starch is present in them by conduction
iodine test. The children developed investigative and experimental skills
by doing this experiment.
English activity on The Hippos Sandwich
Students of grade-IV made a sandwich in
connection with the poem “The hippopotamus sandwich”. All the students actively
participated in collecting the bread, butter, cheese and vegetables. Students
were very excited and enjoyed making the sandwich and later ate it and said
WOW!!!!!!!! It’s so yummy. From this activity students learnt the recipe of
making a sandwich.

through an activity. Students were made to play a game on homophones by picking
a card and searching for the partner. Eg knot and not, I and eye, through this
activity, the students learnt how to recognize a homophone pair. Later each
pair was made to come forward and read the homophone to the entire class.

Oakridge International School‘s
7th Investiture Ceremony took place on 16th June, 2014. It was a
special event where the new council members were appointed for the year 2014 –
15. The students repeated the Oath after the Principal and were entrusted with
their badges by Director Sir, Murali sir, Rajesh Sir and the Headmistress.
Parents of the council members took pride in joining us for
the ceremony. The Principal thanked the guests for being a part of
the event and laid particular emphasis on the importance of parents being
involved in the celebration of their children’s achievements.
Morning Fitness
Exercise acts as a temporary diversion to daily
stresses and it improves self-esteem. Increased core temperature during
exercise may lead to reduced muscle tension and favourable alterations in brain
neurotransmitters.
Sports
Physical health allows students to function even
better in classrooms. A good cardiovascular system developed from regular
exercise promotes excellent blood and oxygen circulation. This means more
nutrients circulate through out the body which includes the brain. This
circulation produces longer attention span during classes allowing longer
concentration and absorption.
