JAMMU, May 17: A collaborative project on COVID-19 was initiated by Godspell College-a Round Square affiliated school in Argentina.
The other Round Square schools from all over the world to take part in this collaborative project were Collingwood School Canada, MacLachlan College Canada, KC Public School Jammu, The British School New Delhi, The Punjab Public School Nabha, Vivek High School Chandigarh, Pathways World School Gurugram and SAI International School.
These schools representing different regions from the world thereby represented a united world.
After all the ‘thank you’ notes were written, students made videos of one minute’s duration each and posted them on the Flipgrid-an online platform for sharing information.
Two online zoom meetings were also held. The first one was to get the children and teachers of different participating schools acquainted with each other.
The aim was to express their feelings about lockdown and how they were adapting to this new living situation and to compare their life styles in their respective countries.
Students of KC Public School made ‘Thank You’ cards to express their gratitude to our frontline Covid-19 warriors who were displaying unparalleled dedication and resilience in the battle against the pandemic.
The aim was to express who they wrote to, why they chose that person, what they were thanking them for, how they were feeling after doing this and what type of impact they believed this would have.
23 KCPS students took part in this project. They included Kritin Jain, Subhagi Sharma, Ria Nargotra, Pragya Mehta, Shambhavi Gupta, Shreedha Gupta, Aryan Mahajan, Sarwani Chowdhary, Nirvan Chowdhary, Aakashvi Singh, Arya Bhat, Sourish Kesar, Anannya Kaul, Kirthi Singh, Shivam Amla, Swarnim Sharma, Aashima Soni, Aamya Sangral, Spriha Sharma, Aryaveer Pal Singh, Kaavin Bhushan, Mrinmay Mehta and Devyanshi Rajput.
The project was facilitated by school RS Rep Sonia Thakur and teachers in-charge Rachna Sharma and Kamaljeet Kaur. Rachael Westgarth, CEO of the Round Square, put in a word of appreciation for the management, students, and teachers of KC Public School for their enthusiastic participation in the project.
