The two-day fest of scientific inquiry, knowledge, rights and expression was held on 10 and 11 May 2018 and attracted participants from about 25 schools from all over the Delhi and NCR region.
The festival provided a forum for debating, scientific experimentation, creative expression, artistic strokes, computer programming and mathematical conceptualisation. The team from our School participated in several of the events listed below.
Winds of Change-Debating provided the young speakers with a platform to explore the role of state politics, judiciary, religion, economy, education and development, on behalf of various sections of society that specifically challenged the culture of silence on various issues.
