William Butler Yeats once stated, “Education is not the filling of a pail but the lightning of a fire.” It is rightly called “the passport to the future”.
The purpose of education today is to convert mirrors into windows. These windows provide opportunities to the students to scale the scope of their skills. One of many such windows of education is competition, which results in collaboration.
Badri High School, from time to time, has procured such prospects for its students, which have affirmed real life learning exposures and experiences to its pupils.
Recently, BHS participated in an Inter school Bilingual Declamation contest, held at Aga Khan Higher Secondary School, Karimabad. Fatima Najmuddin of Class IX A and Tahera Abbas (Head Girl) of Class X A represented Badri High School at the competition in English and Urdu Language Declamation respectively. The participants were brimming with exhilaration on the morning of 3rd February 2018. They were prepped and rehearsed when they reached the venue of the competition.
Fatima Najmuddin orated on the topic “To be or not to be, that is the question”, while Tahera Abbas presented on the topic “ Bus zaroorat hai ek aaghaz-e-safar ki”.
The competition was intricate and challenging as around 26 elite schools of Karachi such as Beaconhouse, Charterhouse, Froebels, MamaParsi, Aga Khan and Habib Public locked horns with each other.
The silver tongued orator of Badri High School, Fatima Najmuddin, bagged the consolation price for BH S over the elites mentioned above. It was a joyful moment for the students. Fatima was awarded a shield along with a certificate while the Urdu presentor, Tahera Abbas was also praised by the judges and awarded with a certificate of participation. The students felt appreciative of the opportunities they were provided with.
