Royal Global School in Guwahati organized an interactive session for parents titled "Adolescere - Blossoming with Pride," facilitated by Niyatii N Shah, a sexuality educator, counselor, corporate trainer, and founder of Averti Education. The session commenced with an insightful observation by Niyatii N Shah, emphasizing that children learn through observation. She encouraged everyone present to be attentive and vigilant. Using engaging activities, she underscored the importance of connecting and bonding with children, highlighting the significance of sharing memories and experiences rather than solely giving instructions. Niyatii N Shah eloquently expressed that building a strong parent-child relationship is crucial before delving into sensitive topics. She encouraged creating an environment where daughters feel comfortable sharing with their mothers, and sons feel at ease confiding in their fathers. The speaker emphasized that adolescence is not merely a phase but a transformative journey. She reframed rebellion during this period as a potential sign of leadership, asserting that questioning and not blindly accepting everything fosters confidence in children. To be effective parents, she advised tapping into children's feelings rather than always seeking logical explanations. Furthermore, Niyatii N Shah urged adolescents to care for their bodies, fostering a sense of pride and ownership without excessive emphasis on conventional beauty standards. She acknowledged the natural inclination to be conscious of one's appearance but advised against undue stress. Acknowledging the emotional turmoil adolescents undergo, the speaker stressed the importance of supporting them effectively. She reiterated that respect is a two-way street, emphasizing that if adults desire respect, they should reciprocate it to adolescents. Niyatii N Shah encouraged parents to engage in light-hearted conversations when children are young, laying the foundation for open discussions on more serious topics later. Both the morning and afternoon sessions received positive responses from parents who appreciated the sensitive approach to the subject. Many expressed gratitude to the school for addressing a crucial topic and advocated for incorporating sex education into the school curriculum.

The event was a great success and the children went back home with some beautiful memories to cherish.

“The Children need your presence more than your presents.”
The quote stands true for today’s generation where the demand for pizzas, toys, and movies comes with a single click of Swiggy, Amazon, and Netflix. The real challenge starts when we do not know which key on the remote would work best to put the control on 21st-century kids. And here’s when 21st-generation parents need a coach on parenting. To provide valuable insights and guidance to parents in Guwahati, the Royal Global School, Guwahati recently organized a parenting session targeting parents of children aged 3-8. The event featured Dr. Pallavi Rao Chaturvedi, a renowned content creator with an Instagram handle "GetSetParentwithPallavi," boasting a massive following of 7,000,000 on social media. The session aimed to delve into the A-Z of parenting, offering a comprehensive understanding of the impact of positive parenting on a child's psychology. Pallavi emphasized parents' pivotal role in shaping their children into well-rounded individuals. She highlighted how positive parenting not only fosters a healthier parent-child relationship but also lays the foundation for the child's future well-being. One of the key takeaways from Pallavi Rao Chaturvedi's session was the importance of aligning actions with words. She emphasized that children often emulate the behavior they witness, making it crucial for parents to embody positive values and actions. Furthermore, Pallavi stressed the significance of using positive language, as it subconsciously reinforces a child's sense of self-worth. The session concluded on an empowering note with Pallavi leading the parents through a series of affirmations and manifestation quotes. Parents repeated affirmations such as "I am a good parent; I will strive to improve every day," "I accept my child as they are," and "I am blessed to have my child just the way they are." Additionally, they pledged to maintain a sense of joy and playfulness, vowing to keep the child alive within themselves. Ms. Binita Jain, Vice Principal of the Royal Global School, addressed the gathering and reflected on the evolution of parenting over the past two decades. She urged parents to introspect, validate their methods, and break away from generational gap parenting. Ms. Jain emphasized the need for parents to adapt to the changing dynamics of parenting to better understand and connect with their children. The parenting session at the Royal Global School, enriched by Pallavi's insights and the school's commitment to nurturing holistic development, provided parents with practical tools to foster a positive and supportive environment for their children's growth. The event served as a valuable platform for parents to exchange ideas and experiences, contributing to the collective effort to raise happy and well-adjusted individuals.

Plastic pollution is a global issue that affects our environment, wildlife, and future generations. Our amazing students at Royal Global School have taken a bold step towards a sustainable future by participating in a fantastic initiative in collaboration with Akshar Foundation.

The event featured Ms. Sonia Relia, a distinguished author affiliated with Oxford University Press and a seasoned trainer from the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), as the resource person. The comprehensive training session aimed to equip educators with a deep understanding of the National Curriculum Framework (NCF) and its vision for the foundational stage of education. Ms. Sonia Relia masterfully led the session, employing interactive techniques and hands-on activities to engage the teachers actively. The training encompassed vital topics such as effective resource management, strategies to maintain a dynamic and engaged classroom, and a specific focus on Foundation Literacy and Numeracy (FLN).

Plastics are our silent killers. They create mayhem in our lives; clog drains when we throw them callously all around thereby causing artificial floods in the vicinity. Marine lives are affected when thrown in the water. They are non-biodegradable so when thrown on the ground, affect the soil and make soil infertile thereby hampering agricultural productivity. Royal Global School has been relentlessly trying to sensitize its students about the harmful effects of plastic and the SDG goals are being inculcated too. The school has further branched out by being a part of the Swacch School and Swacch Shehar program. In tandem with the school's goal of making the school a plastic-free zone the Commissioner of Guwahati Municipal Corporation Mr. MN Dahal and the members of the Akshar Foundation were invited to address the students. The school's Ripple Effect community presented a presentation on the activities undertaken by them to make one aware of the menace of plastic. The club brought to the forefront the deadly impact of microplastic which has even entered the human bloodstream. The club has asked its members to collect plastic and do their bit by making the school a plastic-free zone. The commissioner addressed the August gathering by informing them about the waste garbage dump of Guwahati piling up and the challenges being faced in handling it. He further informed the students that plastic is man-made and was supposed to be a boon to society. But after the invention of single-use plastic, it has created havoc in our ecosystem. He said he was given a cleaner word which in turn has turned into a dirtier world now. And so, he asked the students not to generate plastic waste, which can be done by not buying plastic things that are not essential. To make the world a better place he asked the students to bring the plastic things to school and the school will send it to a place where a proper use of the unused plastics can be done. He reminded them about the three R's: Reduce, Recycle, Reuse He reiterated that the environment belongs to us and all of us should do our bit to take care of it. He further told the students that where the elders have failed miserably the young students have the superpower to bring in the change to make Guwahati a cleaner city. The Vice Principal Ms. Binita Jain thanked the Commissioner and promised that Royal Global School would be the torch bearer of banning single-use plastic and help in the reduction of unnecessary waste.

We can never get rid of all the plastic in the world, but we can definitely reduce the amount of plastic thrown in the garbage through our collective efforts and transform them into usable commodities.
