DOCUMENTARY ON MIGRATORY BIRDS

On 13th and 14th December, 2023, the Geography Department of DPS RK Puram showcased a documentary on Migratory Birds in the AVH for the sections A-G and  H-N of class IX . The documentary portrayed the lives of various migratory birds, their places of origin and the places where they migrate to and the  migratory passages of a variety of birds such as the Siberian Crane, Pelican, Black Heron, Bar-headed duck, Cormorant or the snake bird. The movie also highlighted the issues faced by these birds due to human activity and pollution. For instance, the students saw a duck unable to swim  due to oil spills, a crane flying with polythene bags entangled in its feet. However, with persistent efforts and thoughtful action, the students can revert the situation. Spreading awareness through campaigns and taking appropriate measures to reduce pollution are some significant steps that can be taken at the students’ level.The documentary was followed by a quiz on Natural Vegetation and Migratory Birds. It was an exciting and enlightening session and they learnt many new facts about migratory birds and the natural vegetation found in various regions. The event was organised by Mrs Arti Trivedi and Ms Sangita Bajpai. 

VISIT TO  NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF PLANT GENOME RESEARCH (NIPGR)

An educational trip was organized for Classes IX and  XI students on December 22, 2023, by the Biology Department  to National Institute of Plant Genome Research (NIPGR).

The G. Bhaskar Memorial lecture and award ceremony was organised on 18th December 2023 at Delhi Public School, R.K. Puram in remembrance of G. Bhaskar, a very promising student, who joined the institution in class VIII. Lost in the crowd initially, Venkata Subramaniam Bhaskar slowly and steadily made a place in the hearts of his fellow students and teachers. An extremely talented and hardworking student, not only did he excel in academics, but he was also a great badminton player and played for the school table tennis team. He also had formal training in Classical Carnatic music and could recite several chapters from Shrimad Bhagwat Gita. Unfortunately, his success ended with his early demise. In his memory, DPS RK Puram has been organising an inspirational lecture since 1995 in presence of his family and friends. Since 1999, an  award has been instituted in his loving memory  by his parents. This award is given to exceptional students, who not only excel in academics and co-curricular activities but also display a strong moral fibre. 

The Vice Principals, Mr. Naresh Miglani, Mr. Anil Kumar Kathuria and Mr. Mukesh Kumar, G. Bhaskar’s father, Mr. Ganapati Raman and brother, Mr. Ramnath G. along with other family members were present during the ceremony. This year, Shri. Achyutananda Priya Das from ISKCON was invited for the memorial lecture, who is a Graduate Engineering Graduate from KIT, Kanpur, practicing spirituality since 15 years and actively serving the society through value based motivational seminars, presently the National Director of CSR at ISKON. Shri Achyutanand Ji conducted an interactive session with the students of class 11 present in the auditorium and shared real life practical examples derived from Bhagwad Geeta in a simplified manner.

Mr. Ramnath, the elder brother of G. Bhaskar shared his most precious  memories, especially the time spent with Bhaskar. On this occasion, Mr. Mukesh Kumar, Vice Principal, DPS RK Puram, shared how he remembers G Bhaskar’s always smiling demeanour and his outstanding ability to connect with one and all.
