Alert today – Alive tomorrow.

The Road Safety Week was observed from Sunday, 5th  to Thursday, 9th May 2013,it was an innovative effort by the Students Voice Group of the Winchester School, student community has joined their hands to spread the awareness and messages to the parents on the need of Safe driving on roads and around the school premises. Truly appreciate the effort taken by the students and staff to reduce the number of road accidents by creating mass awareness. The SVGs, involving students from year 1 to Year 10 took the initiative, a first of its kind in our school, the students mainly focused on creating awareness among parents and students through posters competitions and special assemblies, objective of the assemblies were to share and carry the awareness messages to parents. Videos and presentations were compiled by the SVGs and shared during the registration time.

The Key Stage 3 students were in full vigour of celebrating The Road Safety Week , their enthusiasm has taken them to the next step of spreading awareness through parades with posters. Despite of the extreme heat outside during the school dispersal time , these students urged to spread messages with their lovely messages and awareness posters to mums and dads who had come to pick their children. We could see the sparkles of joy in the eyes of the parents, they were proud to see their children showing concerns for the community and for their family itself. This was indeed the icon of the week.

Winchester firmly believe that TOGETHER WE Can. Students are the best instruments for creating such awareness in parents, so let’s all live with their dreams.
