Dignity First

Skype meeting with our partner school in the Philippines

In celebration of the Dignity Day globally we at Askari X held our first Skype meeting with our partner school St. Paul’s Learning Center in Cebu Philippines, for the Global Dignity Day Project. 

The meeting was planned and conducted at 11:30 am Pakistan time and 2:30 pm Philippines time. The students introduced themselves top their counterparts in the other country. The School Head also met our SHM Mrs.Fariha Najam and exchanged pleasantries welcoming each others institution to the Skype meeting.

The students were very generous in welcoming their counterparts and the introductions brought them a little closer although both countries are thousands of miles apart. This project aims at not only bringing the world closer an it has already become a Global Village, but also to give the young minds the exposure they deserve from the glorious world of opportunities and progress.

After the introductory meeting we signed off at 12:00 noon Pakistan time. We will meet tomorrow at the same time where both schools will provide an online forum for discussion about the golden rules of dignity. The students are all geared up and excited about it and we wish them all the best.

Dissection of Goats Heart

Dissection of Goat Heart

The Main purpose of the activity was to let the students observe the chambers of a goat’s heart.  Teacher sliced open the heart vertically using scalpels.  Students identified the four chambers using hand lens and observed aorta and openings for pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein. They also discussed the path of the blood through the heart i.e. how does blood flow through these chambers.  The students thoroughly enjoyed their first experience of a dissection and learned more than they would have through a sample theoretical explanation.

It was a role play in which there was an interviewer who asked questions from different dengue mosquitoes, their media manager and a doctor. The mosquitoes told about their likes and symptoms and where they were actually found.  The media manager reported about the widespread effect to our surroundings and the doctor told about the precautions to be taken to prevent oneself from the dengue mosquito bite.
