Amrita Vidyalayam’s tribute
to the “Missile Man”
By Dinesh Kamath
JUINAGAR:In memory of late Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam, Amrita
Vidyalayam, Juinagar held a “Science Exhibition” on October 6, 2015 to
commemorate his birthday which falls on October 15th.
Students from grades 5th to 10th put
up an interesting display on topics such as Renewable sources of energy, Global
warming, Water Resource Management, Disaster Management, Pollution Control and
Traffic Management. The innovative uses of household appliances were used to
depict each of their themes. The awareness thus created during this exhibition
will make the young minds sensitive to
the various issues that the environment is facing and help in the conscious
understanding that nature is only as good as how we conserve it.
On the same day, the students also participated in the
‘Fevicol Science Project Challenge’. This year’s theme was ‘young minds
creating better tomorrow’. The young
minds of Amrita Vidyalayam took up the challenge and put up an interesting
combination of their scientific and artistic skills. The challenge enabled the
students to think on issues relevant to our everyday life and create solutions
that will help in creating a better tomorrow. The challenge saw a unique
amalgamation of art, craft and science which will develop the creativity in the
children and strengthen concepts of science. The Chief Guest Shri Ramkishan,
who, as an Outstanding Scientist in BARC implemented Energy and water
conservations measures, along with the eminent judges of Pidilite Industries
tested the students’ scientific temperament and understanding.
