Meet JIRS Representatives in your City

The JAIN International Residential School (JIRS) understands that choosing the right residential school for a student, their parents, and their family is not an easy task. From the moment the idea of attending a residential school first crosses the minds of the parents (family) and the children, much research is done before they finally settle on a school that meets all of their needs and exceeds their expectations. Many parents and students are reluctant to choose a residential school or withdraw during this process. As a result, the student misses out on the uniqueness of residential schools, which offers a wide range of opportunities to help students discover their true selves.

In an effort to assist parents in their inquiry about education at JIRS, the school has introduced the Parent Conference. In order to give their ward the finest residential schooling experience possible, the programme brings together parents of existing JIRS students and those of prospective students(s). The top management and the parents of present students can be personally connected to, discussed with, and networked with—all in the convenience of their own city.

Following are the cities where JIRS Parent Conference took place recently:

From Vision to Materialisation - Malgudi: A Nostalgic Tale

It all began with the cultural committee coming up with the idea of Parivartan (transformation) as the central theme for the annual day. Mr Nalin, the drama and theatre teacher, chose R.K. Narayan’s novel The Vendor of Sweets from the world-renowned series, Malgudi Days. He aimed to depict on stage the bond between a father and son and how the father's unwavering love causes his selfish and rebellious son to undergo a profound transformation. Eventually, the vision grew much larger than the theme of Parivartan and soon replaced it.

Although the new theme was warmly embraced, dramatising this 1967 book presented a significant challenge. Mr. Nalin took the responsibility of being a foresighted director and transforming the book into a musical by fusing dance performances with drama. After much effort, the director created a play with a running time of 45 minutes and ten dance performances lasting 30 minutes, condensing nine episodes of the TV show Malgudi Days. The choreographers of the theme-based dance performances, which ranged from regional traditional dance to ultra-modern robotic dance, were Mrs. Resmi, the in-house dance teacher, and Ms. Shraddha, a resource person.

Once the cast was finalised the students were trained to understand their characters and roles. They were then introduced to the provisional script, which they had to enact on stage. As the students were being introduced to theatre practices, the director was keen to have someone with experience in English literature modify the screenplay and polish it. The first few days were challenging, but as the days went on, the participants settled in and started to look forward to the training sessions. They developed a fascination with theatre and wanted to learn more about it. With the students, the director had a conversation about theatre and drama. He encouraged them to actively contribute by making suggestions and taking on the responsibility to realise the goal.

The students used imaginary props while acting during the rehearsal sessions, adopting mannerisms and body language of their characters. The outfits that the director had in mind were swiftly being acquired by the Cultural Committee. The Art Department was working on making life-size props for the grand finale. The Music Department joined the group as stage rehearsals got underway. The all-time favourite Malgudi theme was reproduced by students using their flute, keyboard, and tabla. The students' captivating live music permeated the entire play. On the day of the final performance, things were both hectic and exciting. The Sprintoor Auditorium was decorated to evoke the feel of bygone eras. The stage's authentic props accurately recreated the atmosphere of a traditional South Indian village. Once the characters were dressed in their costumes and makeup, they appeared to be from a different era.

On 30th December 2022, the vision of Malgudi: A Nostalgic Tale materialised and became something larger than life. It turned out to be a triumph of planning and perseverance that provided all the participants with an opportunity to hone and exhibit their skills.

A Delightful Celebration on Makar Sankranti

Makar Sankranti is a Hindu festival dedicated to worshipping Lord Surya (Sun God). The festival signifies the transit of the sun into Makara Rashi (Capricorn Zodiac) and falls on the 14th of January every year. It also marks the end of winter and the beginning of a new harvest season. It has both seasonal and religious significance and is considered one of the most auspicious days of the Hindu calendar.

JIRS celebrates Makar Sankranti with zeal and enthusiasm. And this year, an inter-house Pongal-making competition was organised. The celebrations for the day began with a special assembly highlighting the significance of the day in the form of dance drama and songs. The enthusiasm of participants was reaching the sky, as some of them were experiencing traditional ways of cooking for the first time. Among the four houses, the high school participants prepared Khara Pongal and the middle school students prepared Sweet Pongal.

The students enjoyed themselves during the kite flying event and embraced the true spirit of Makar Sankranti. Such competitions build team spirit and bonding among the students.
