Budding Young Author
“Start writing, no matter what. The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on.”
— Louis L’Amour
Many kids love to write stories – they are so full of creative ideas and their imagination just pours out of them. How they choose to express that imagination probably differs – through play, writing, and drawing, for example.
We too had a budding young author amongst ourselves. Jay Berry (Class IV B) of Salwan Junior School, Naraina, penned down a beautiful story with the title ‘Time Travel to Dinosaur Land’ in Intellyjelly Magazines. It is a holistic magazine for budding authors and poets. Its content has been chosen for the Happiness Curriculum by the Delhi Government and the Dalai Lama for about 12 lakh children.
It was a proud moment for the parents and teachers as through this platform his story will reach to many other children and it will be a gateway for them that assures a rewarding journey with self-confidence, proper conduct, tolerance, inner strength, love, & much more.

Nand Kishore Award
“Brains, like hearts, go where they are appreciated.”
Positive recognition is an excellent way to motivate progression and appropriate behaviour in students. Giving them rewards for their efforts suggests that their hard work is acknowledged. This is a powerful mindset to create a conducive environment in the school, thereby encouraging each and every child to do better. This further promotes feelings of pride, which goes hand in hand with happiness.
Salwan Junior School always keeps their children at the focus of everything they do. In order to stimulate learning and to motivate good behaviour among students, NAND KISHORE AWARD was introduced at Salwan to honour the best student from the Economically Weaker Section with the objective to encourage them to continue their hard work. The award was bestowed to Dev Sharma (V-A) and Arjun Tondak (III-B) for showing their dedication, hard work and academic excellence throughout the year.
SJS feels proud to felicitate your efforts!!
Show and Tell Competition
“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I remember, involve me and I learn”
A key part of the primary school curriculum, “show and tell” is an important part of a child’s learning development. It strengthens the verbal skills and fosters the public speaking competency of young minds.
Students of grade 1 participated in a SHOW AND TELL COMPETITION, organized on 24th July’19. The topic given to the students was ‘Health and Hygiene.’ This activity helped them to build their self-confidence and self-esteem. It enabled them to improve their descriptive skills by communicating feelings, thoughts and emotions with words. All participants were excited to share their descriptive narration and waited eagerly for their turn to show and tell. Thus, this event helped our tiny tots to build their social, emotional and language skills.
It goes without saying that students’ involvement in individual activity infuses them with originality, self-confidence & self-reliance. The inspiring presentation left no stone unturned to achieve a realistic appraisal of their skills and to discover the power of spoken words.
It was an interesting and thrilling experience for the kids sharing their feelings with peers which provided a fun and comfortable learning arena for everyone involved.
Calligraphy Competition
“Poetry is simply the most beautiful, impressive, and widely effective mode of saying things.”
-Matthew Arnold
Poetry is the rhythmical creation of beauty in words. Poetry recitation helps us lay emphasis on the sound and rhythm of language, thus building phonemic awareness. To promote the same, an Inter–House English Group Recitation Competition was held on – July 30, 2019, among the four houses: Gandhi, Nehru, Tagore and Vivekanand House. Students from all four houses presented classic poems by great poets. If one poem conveyed the feelings of a boy who stood on the burning deck, the other expressed the sorrow of a caged bird.
The participants from all the respective four houses left no stone unturned to win for their house. Students were judged on the parameters like confidence, voice modulation, memorization and overall presentation. The young poets enthralled the audience with their articulation and memory skills while reciting poems. It was a splendid opportunity for them to gain confidence through stage exposure. Everyone was delighted after seeing their pleasing performances.
The winner of the competition was the poem recited by the students of Tagore House– Don’t Quit, that filled the school premises with boundless zeal to keep trying and to never give up.
