Hello everyone, I am V. Swithin Swaroop from Grade 10-B, a national rifle shooting player. Today, I would like to share my short experience, and I hope this will help you in the future. I started shooting in Grade 8. I always thought that people who achieve something significant do nothing and that their success[…]

I wish you’d let me into your world If only just to wish you a good day. Or is it that you doubt my heart so much You keep it at bay? I’d like to barge into your walls and Blame it on fate, But would you believe my eyes when they sway? I’d beg[…]

Failure is only seen as a setback in the present generation, but many successful people have proven that it can be the stepping stone to success. Here are some such stories of Perseverance: Thomas Edison: The Inventor Who Never Gave Up Thomas Alva Edison, the inventor of the lightbulb. He failed over 1,000 times before[…]

It has been a while since I have thought of myself as a child. Of someone clouded in innocence and unbridled joy. Of a time when I felt wanted, not felt, like a toy. A toy loved and not used. The memories seep through like sunlight through a curtain in my grandmother's house in summer.[...]

Math stares at me, “Go find X!” “It’s better you move on to what's next.” But letters and numbers blur and blend, A puzzle unending, with no end.   Social Studies? I’ve had enough! Empires rise and fall, it's all just fluff! “Akbar and viceroys, what's their role in daily life?” In this chaos, I[...]

Vista International School recently organised Hungama which was conducted on 10th August. It was a smashing success, bringing together the students, the parents[...]

Fast. What happened to the slow silences of life? What happened to the moments of grace and quiet? Life has become such a collage of streaks and splashes that the meaningful monochromes have been left unnoticed. What happened to the mellow memories of yesterday?
