FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK
Congratulations to our Dearest Dr.Tarita Shankar
Dear Readers, Here we are pleased to present the fifth edition of ‘Young Minds’. We had an extensive array of activities along with academics in the last quarter. Such activities provide the much needed platform to the students to showcase their talents and enhance their personality. This edition proudly uncovers the wide range of events that occurred in the last quarter. We have conquered the odds and scaled new peaks creating history with the successful hosting of the ‘11th CBSE West Zone Swimming Meet 2011 – 12.’ We are truly grateful for the many hands that made this possible. Nothing would make us happier than to share the joy of this success with you, which is why we bring to you a brief report on the same along with the other happenings in the school. INS has always sought to empower students with varied cutting edge knowledge through various activities. To provide a new insight into the making of the ‘Young Minds’, we decided to appoint a student – editor, Master Sumedh Badve from X Alpha as a student representative. Truly speaking, he has performed his role very efficiently. The New Year 2012 will be here even before one realizes, as it is just a month to go. So, we take this opportunity to wish our readers a very “Happy New Year 2012”. We hope the year ahead will give you opportunities to explore your quest for greater satisfaction and fulfillment of your dreams.

kaleidoscope THE EDITORIAL EXPERIENCE A newsletter publication is quite a challenging activity. I have a natural inclination towards literature and I often read novels, short stories, poems, etc. I get immense joy when I read, still more when I write my own poems or articles….. a delight to pleasure.When I was selected as the student editor, my joy had no limits. Thus, I started working on the school newsletter. We collected articles from the entire school - some gave it willingly, while the others................not so. But ultimately, we ended with up a huge pile of write-ups. The wide range of material covered articles, poems, stories, experiences, travelogues, facts, pictures, paintings etc. We went through them thoroughly and many of them proved to be extremely well composed. So, I would like to thank all the contributors to the newsletter without whom this would have been not possible. I would like to appreciate all their efforts. I got great support from the editor, Mrs. Archana Hulawale. She encouraged me in every possible manner such that the final product for which we were working on, for over a month was a commendable one. We have made an honest effort to make this edition a remarkable one. I do not know how far I have succeeded in my maiden effort. Only the readers will be able to give justice to it. According to me the readers are the true jury. And of course, I would like to thank my teachers for having faith in me and selecting me as the editor. I hope everyone will appreciate our literary creation. Indeed, it was a great learning experience. Sumedh Badve (Student Editor)
