1. Dear Parents,
It is our mission to ensure that
each student who passes through
the portals of AGSN be with a
heart full of kindness, ears for
compassion and hands for
charity.
These traits will hold them in
good stead and can be achieved
by a shared pledge between
committed teachers, inspired
students and eager parents.
We would like to share with you
that we have embarked on our
IB journey as a DP and PYP
candidate school, where PYP has
already taken wings and DP is
in the process of launching.
Greetings for the festive season!

2. Children have real learning of only what they invent themselves - Jean Piaget
Asharing with parents of grades EY 1, EY 2, PY 1, PY 2 and PY 3 for the journey of the unit/theme
was taken by the homeroom teachers of the respective grades along with specialists for various
subjects. The idea was to help parents understand the process of learning and skill building through the
theme completed. The teachers also shared evidences of work with parents to see the application of the
learning by their children. The sharing was followed by queries of the parents that were addressed by
teachers. It definitely was an enriching experience for both parents and teachers. Early years we shared
the journey about the unit “How we express ourselves” and Early years 2 shared about the unit
“Who we are”. Primary years 3 shared about the unit “How we organize ourselves”.
To observe and practice Sustainable development goals of the United Nations, AGSN embarked on a
drive of growing a plant by each student and teacher in a mini ‘class garden’. The initiative endeavoured
to inculcate in children the love and their responsibility towards
nature, besides developing patience as they wait for their plants
to grow. In addition, a story writing activity was organized with
the plant as the main hero and it was wonderful to see the
children participate in it with a lot of enthusiasm and passion.
The stories came out incredibly well with touching elements and
climax. The plants have been named and are being nurtured by
their owners on a regular basis. Indeed, it’s a treat to see so
much greenery in the school .
My friend Ross
I have a friend ,I call it “Ross”

My friends say its just a plant ,cant you just see
For me its our only chance to sustain , if you agree!!
