Young Authors Felt Pen

“From composing memorable fantastical worlds to inspiring political revolutions, there is little that cannot be achieved with an idea and a pen.”

MRIS Charmwood has always endeavoured to identify and challenge its students in areas of their interest  and open new doors for them – be it in STEAM, Sports, Art and Culture or Academics. Our students have successfully launched Textures, an anthology by in house student authors.

The Young Author’s Felt Pen provides a platform to our students to nurture their creative side. This unique programme identifies and provides young writers a professional atmosphere to nurture their creativity and writing skills, with the goal to publish their work by the end of the program.

The writers are identified and shortlisted after a series of screening tests and interviews. From there on, the fledgling ideas are developed into refined stories, which is eventually published in an anthology. Through the journey of exploration of ideas, writing, workshops and revisions, all under established mentorship of authors and content developers, this unique program allows young talent to reliably initiate their own journey of becoming authors.

Alumni

Alumni connections open doors of understanding and inspire the students by giving them a glimpse of success of their counterparts in the real world. Our Alumni are an integral part of our school system. The school applauds and showcases the achievements of its alumni with pride-filled joy through various mediums. It nurtures a strong bond with its alumni through regular alumni meets. The alumni who have made their mark in different walks of life are invited to share about their journey with the students and help them get clarity about their dream careers and how to prepare for them. Such sessions also act as a catalyst in cementing the bonds of friendship and togetherness The school maintains a colossal database of the alumni and their impressive list of victories.

SOFT SKILLS

To excel in the challenging and competitive world of today, our students need much more than just technical dexterity. Employers today are looking for applicants who not only are perfect at their work but also fit into the workplace environment and get along with co-workers.

Students must acquire strong soft skills if they are to complete assigned tasks successfully. Programmes that teach soft skills improve students’ capacity to interact with their environment and make wise judgment. Soft skills are aptitudes that make it possible for one to interact with people in an effective way. Since the majority of occupations need collaboration, having soft skills increases ones employability and helps land a dream career. It supports in developing strong professional relationships, boosting career productivity, and thriving at work.

Keeping this in mind, MRIS, Charmwood makes a consistent effort to inculcate effective soft skills in the students through a plethora of activities. The theme based assemblies focus on emphasizing the importance of values. There are regular MUNs, Skill Development sessions, rigorous sports activities inter and intra school debates, theatre, music, dance competitions and subject specific events like Innoskill, Commercium, which hone the interpersonal, time management, communication, collaborative and decision making skills of the students, thus making them future-ready with an international level of dexterity and competitiveness; along with the much necessary universal human values like empathy, integrity and ethical conduct.
