"Quality in education is what makes learning a pleasure and a joy."
Bagless Day at St. Jude’s School provided a unique platform for students to engage in extracurricular activities while introducing a refreshing approach to learning, aimed at enhancing overall performance. On the 16th of August 2024, our primary classes (KG to 2) embraced this exciting initiative: "Bagless Wellness Day."
The day commenced with a vibrant morning assembly in the respective classrooms, setting a positive tone for the day. Following this, students participated in simple exercises.These activities were thoughtfully designed to energize the children, promoting physical health and instilling a sense of joy and enthusiasm.
Craft sessions, like making bracelets in KG classes, allowed students to explore their creative sides, fostering fine motor skills and self-expression. In celebration of Raksha Bandhan, students also engaged in a Rakhi-making activity, creating beautiful and colourful rakhis that symbolized the bond of love and protection among siblings. This activity not only nurtured their creativity but also connected them to cultural traditions.
To emphasize the importance of gratitude and reflection, Class 2 students crafted beautiful gratitude journals, encouraging mindfulness and appreciation. Worksheets on brain-boosting activities, prepared by the teachers of Class 1, were aimed at enhancing mental alertness and cognitive functions, providing a fun and stimulating challenge for the young minds.
A storytelling session conducted by the teachers captivated the students, offering them a chance to dive into imaginative worlds while refining their listening skills and concentration.
Mind-calming activities, such as guided meditation and deep breathing exercises, were incorporated throughout the day to help students relax and center themselves. These practices aimed to reduce stress, improve focus, and enhance overall emotional well-being.
The young enthusiasts enjoyed themselves immensely and returned home with numerous cherished memories, embodying the spirit of a truly enriching Bagless Day.
