The Cathedral Vidya School

A boarding school always comes along with many components unlike day schools; where the academics, the sports, and the extracurricular activities are somewhere given equal considerations. The entire day is filled with a bit of all the components, along with imbibing time management and self-discipline. Let’s take a look at some of the top benefits of boarding schools, as suggested by experts… Boarding schools make children independent: At the fast pace in which life is moving, parents are always on the move working or keeping up with the demanding social life.

“For myself, losing is not coming second. It’s getting out of the water knowing you could have done better. For myself, I have won every race I’ve been in.” – Ian Thorpe The schools participating were Cathedral Vidya School , Kohinoor American School, Euro School Wakad ,B.D. Sonami ,B.K. Birla and Universal World College. The style for the day was freestyle. Boys under 19, 50 metre Moon lead the match and took over. The public screamed “Moon!

The Abhivyakti commenced with four schools displaying their perception of #Spandan2018CVSL as a whole, via their surreal paintings. The schools were given pictures of various events and happenings of Spandan and were left with their creativity flowing through their minds for transforming their imagination into reality. The intensity of heat and the scorching sun did not burn the spirits of the artists. From bright to dark shades, the participants did not fail to brighten our days. While some participants delineated football, others portrayed Spandan as the overwhelming Gen-X fashion show. With palms painted green and to shirt with strokes of paint, the participants strived to achieve perfection. The teachers cheered the little ones on, along with seniors who had nothing in their minds but to make their school win. At the end, everybody won with flying colours (pun intended). The battle of art finally ended with Yechan Moon from IB curriculum school in Pune . The Cathed...
