SETH M.R.JAIPURIA SCHOOL,
KURSI ROAD CAMPUS

a MONTHLY CELEBRATION OF EXCELLENCE (AUGUST)

Mrs.Harpreet Rekhi is our
honorable Principal. She has
more than 18 years of work
experience in different capacities
in reputed schools. She is a
Visionary academician and
dynamic leader. She has always
emphasized on taking teaching
and learning beyond classroom
and encouraged creativity,
collaboration and critical thinking
among students.

OUR HONORABLE PRINCIPAL

I truly believe that goals in life once carefully chosen play a pivotal role in our lives and though we
may have to alter or change our path sometimes, our Goal must remain a constant guiding force for all our actions
to achieve fulfilment and success in our lives. Our school vision is much more than a few words of vague
intentions, it characterises Jaipuria to the rest of the world. It is important to articulate this vision and make it clear
to all the stakeholders- teachers, students, parents and the community at large. It helps us articulate our shared
beliefs and develop a common language. It's time we embrace ourselves and get ready to see ourselves in the
new light. New does not mean we forget the old but in an increasingly interconnected world, we need to prepare
the next generation of students to be global leaders. Now along with academic finesse, we will help them to adorn
the worldly layers of eloquent speech, gender equality, cultural sensitivity, action-based compassion and
resilience.We must encourage students to take empathy and transform it into action-based compassion. Students
can start community initiatives they are passionate about or get involved in local organizations that create change.
When students become global leaders and have an appreciation for cultural differences, they see themselves as
citizens of the world and take responsibility to enact change on a global scale.To give voice to such thoughts I am
thrilled to present before you our monthly magazine- ‘ Le Pionnier’ featuring student life, initiatives, achievements
and expressions. This magazine will serve as a platform where students will be celebrated in different colours of
academics, sports and creativity. The hope is that the magazine will house inspiring stories, motivating
achievements and fascinating creativity that will allow our students to shine the brightest. I congratulate the
'School Editorial team' for their relentless effort to bring into life this wonderful piece of work that will surely be an
integral part of our school culture.

Mrs.Sanchita Srivastava is our
honorable Head Mistress. She has
more than 16 years of work
experience in different capacities in
reputed schools. She inspires the
students to strive for excellence and
realize their full potential with a
positive outlook towards life.

village there was Gokul Dham society near Power street . In the
society there was a man named Alice and the name of the secretary
of the society was Edward . Behind Alice’s house there was a park .
In his society there was an inauguration in which all the people living
in the society planted saplings. In the midnight he herd some noise
but he ignored it and thought that it might be the noise of rustling of
bushes . The next day he woke up early in the morning and started
playing video games, after some time when he got out of his house
he saw that the plants were destroyed . He called all the people of the
society and told them that someone has destroyed all the plants. He
also said that he herd someone whistling in the midnight but he
ignored it . He went behind the park in the evening and saw Edward
and some people planning to make a fake ghost and scare the people
