A REPORT ON PRASTHAN EXHIBITION - 2022-2023
Venue: Dream World School. 2022–2023
‘Prasthan Exhibition’ is a Science Exhibition to showcase the talents of students and to promote creativity. In order to endorse research skills and ignite innovative ideas among students, we organize ‘Prasthan Exhibition’ every year in our school. This is a great opportunity for our students to drive their competencies in thinking, creative and scientific skills. We believe that one should learn science by practical or experimental approach rather than mere reading textbooks or theory.
This exhibition cultivates scientific approach and reasoning skills among the aspirants. This is also a platform for the students to exhibit their models in CBSE Science Exhibition in Regional Level at Bangalore, later in National Level at New Delhi.
Bagging two first prizes at National level CBSE Science Exhibition 2017–2018 and 2018–2019 in two different themes is a significant milestone for our students’ achievement. This achievement is an inspiration and a benchmark for all other students to dream their goals and strive to fulfil them
On Monday, 22 August 2022 and Tuesday, 23 August 2022, the student teams of classes VI to IX presented their Projects/Models ardently for the screening test. They were assessed by the respective subject teachers. The best 44 exhibits were selected for ‘Prasthan Exhibition’ out of 98 exhibits in all, as they scored 50%, and above 50% in the assessment.
On Saturday, 27 August 2022, the ‘Prasthan Exhibition’ commenced at 10:00 a.m. by lighting the lamp followed by a welcome speech by the ‘Prasthan Wing’ student leader Prahas H of class IX. In order to arouse curiosity and build scientific temper among students we conducted series of experiments to show that chemistry is part and parcel of our everyday life. Later, our Chief, Mr K. Anil Babu and our principal Ms Parimala C.M. inspired the students with their motivational speech to work hard in their respective fields and declared that the exhibition was open for all.
The exhibition was open for all the students, school parents and well-wishers from 10:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. This exhibition included still models, working models and study based projects which were innovative and notable. The projects echoed the theme - ‘SCIENTIFIC SOLUTIONS FOR CHALLENGES IN LIFE’. Some of the models were ‘Zero Energy Cooling Chamber’, ‘Automatic Water Alarm’, ‘Li-Fi’, ‘Automatic Engine Locking System for drunken drivers’, ‘Innovative Methods of Farming Techniques’.
The visitors went through all the models of the exhibition with curiosity. Students explained the details of their respective models to the visitors enthusiastically and also collected their valuable feedback. Students received critics and compliments from the visitors for their team efforts. These critics and compliments filled zeal in the minds of students to work determinedly in the years to come.
Thus, the ‘Prasthan Exhibition’ was well organized and boosted the confidence levels of our students.
