NATURE’S WAY
THIS ONE IS FOR YOU, FOUNDER SIR
Upon a nice mid -spring day,
Let’s take a look at nature’s way
Breathe the scent of blooming jasmine,
Feel the breeze within your hair.
The grass will poke between your toes,
Smell the flowers with your nose,
Clouds will form shapes within the skies,
And the light will flash from your eyes.
Hear the buzzing of your bees,
Climb the tallest willow trees.
Look across the meadow way,
And you may see a young deer play
Pick the daisy as they grow, Amity is the finest school,
Then watch a gentle cold stream flow, Superb is your contribution in it all,
Know the sound of the water splash,
Catch it`s glimmer as a flash, Harmonious is the environment here,
And listen to nature to tell her tale. Omniscient being your knowledge, and
Kind is the soul who nurtures us all,
PAARTH RATHI (CLASS 5I)
Knowledgeable infinitely you are.
Clever it may seem, but we know
Hard work, Affection and
Understanding have made it all possible.
Heroic have been the efforts and
Amazing are the results, may
Nobel be the future ahead.

EXAM FRIGHT
FORGIVENESS
For each time you don’t forgive
I feel like you forget to live
For each time you hold a grudge
I think you’re mulling too much
For each time someone says sorry
One of the nights filled with fear,
I think you need to hurry…
Nope. Not the fear of a ghost or a bear,
…to say that’s its ok
Yes, you guessed it right Exam’s tomorrow,
There’s nothing to worry
Surely a day filled with sorrow.
All I need you to know is that forgiveness
Buried under books the whole time,
is a gift
Studying about pennies, rupees and dimes,
So learn it, earn it, or return it, though
Thinking about the time in the exam hall,
never treat like a dayshift
It feels like I am waiting for a battle call.
Chewing almonds and drinking milk,
At the same time studying about the route of silk, MINISHKA AGARWAL (CLASS 7B)
Then everything started getting hazy,
And I drifted off to sleep like a sloth who is lazy.
Next day as I received the sheet of exam,
My brain ran as fast as 26GB ram,
Surprisingly I knew all the answers,
I seriously felt like dancing with a Group of dancers.
PRITHA GHOSH (CLASS 7B)
THE ROAD TO HAPPINESS
The long road to happiness I take,
To fulfill the wishes and dreams I have made.
You can make someone’s day by saying a word of kindness
Or showing a lonely man the much needed gentleness
I pride myself in surrounding myself with everyone merry
And looking forward to tomorrow even if it gets dreary
I’m grateful for having my family and friends for support
As success without love and happiness is equivalent to
failure and more
This road is a hard but successful climb,
But scaling this journey makes it all worth while
The long road to happiness I take ,
So that I find myself in a much better place.
DEVYANSHI GOSWAMI (CLASS 8E)
IT ENDS WITH US
I stand in front of a mirror THE HUMAN’S LAIR
And I do not see myself,
Since I don’t know who I really am.
I hunt for myself, Waking up in a daze,
Emeralds growing in the garden.
I see brown flesh
Golden barks gleaming,
And sullen astonishment. As I try to blink out the haze.
The mirror shrieked,
“Skin too dark to be pretty.” Looking up the sky is Sapphire,
And so I ripped it apart, Bit by bit The Sun a Topaz glare.
Until the layer that wanted to feel worthy, fell Opals raining down on me,
And got flushed into the drain. As I breathe diamond air.
When I wanted to hop and play But something is unnatural,
I was forced to learn how to earn money Something doesn’t make sense.
And instead of using that opportunity to do both? I blink and blink again,
I skinned all the layers. Try to blink out the haze.
To the point where I had no hopes,
Finally, I break away from the daze,
No aspiration to gather gold And see nothing but decay.
Or to nurture my kids and grow old. The beautiful treasure fair I saw,
I, sat and cried. Was ruined by human’s lair.
Ceaseless streams of tears ran down my cheeks,
MALLIKA NOOR CHAUHAN
A silhouette of life.
(CLASS 11 i)
And one day an opportunity knocked on my door
It bashed, loud and clear.
But from all the shedding
I had no ears to listen, no hands to open the door
And my hamstrung and wild tongue
Had lost its capacity for speech.
I am my worst enemy.
My thoughts continued to haunt me,
Round and round.
Until I realized that the path was to move forward.
My relentless cries of “why me”
Were like melody to my mind,
But no they were not.
I had locked myself behind the bars of self-loathing,
When really it was self-victimization.
And I have the power to fix this,
I am my own best friend.
And again I stand in front of the same mirror,
And I see nothing.
Because it’s not a mirror anymore,
It shouted happily at me
Because it knew a little girl ruined it
She broke her mind’s cage and flew.

LE FEU ET LA GLACE
Certains disent que le monde se terminera par le feu,
Certains disent dans la glace.
De ce que j'ai goûté au désir
Je tiens à ceux qui préfèrent le feu et la glace.
Mais s'il devait périr deux fois,
Je pense que j'en connais assez sur la haine
Dire ça pour la destruction de la glace
Est aussi une sorte de haine
Et serait sûrement le même

Following this, the school had organised a week-long online fitness week program called “Spardha” for Grades I to IV. All the students were encouraged to participate in fun and challenging activities involving kinaesthetic skills and emphasised upon the benefits of physical exercises to follow a healthy routine.

SERVICE LEARNING PROGRAMME—GRADE VIII Amity wants the students to move away from a "charity mindset" and develop a "social justice mindset." Students of Class 8 participated in a service-learning project. Through this project, students tried to achieve real objectives for the community and developed deeper understanding and skills for them- selves. The goal of initiating this service-learning project was to make connections between course topics and real-world issues, values and beliefs. Students achieved a greater sense of efficacy, identity, spiritual growth, greater interpersonal development, particularly the ability to work well with others, and build leadership and communication skills. Variety of topics were undertaken by students includ- ing Road safety awareness, Basic first aid learning, Good Nutrition and say no to Obesity, Cleanliness is next to Godliness, program for underprivileged children to generate awareness about important as- pects of the city-e.g.: important landmarks, tourist places, places of historical importance etc. Various programmes were organized online for under privileged students like-Online Antakshari, Mythological play, Eklavya- Drama was showcased to inculcate the values of Guru Shishya Parampara. Students learnt compassion as well as composition. Students thanked School Principal, Mrs. Arti Chopra and Head Mistress Mrs. Ranjana Sharma for introducing this wonderful project to them.
