Global citizens

When you enter the school, the very first thing you notice is a vision of DWPS written on the big

poster in the middle of the atrium. And among other things, the phrase that catches the attention is

that Delhi World Public Schools aim to create global citizens. But what is it to be a global citizen?

In AIESEC we know the answer to this question. AIESEC is an independent, non-political, not-for-

profit organization that is run by youth and which opens the world for those young people who are

willing to set on the adventure. It is a global platform for young people to explore and develop their

leadership potential. AIESEC provides opportunities for volunteering abroad or taking on a profes-

sional internship. Volunteering is short-term, only for a couple of weeks, but it's important to keep in

mind that your perception of the world can change even in one week living abroad, when you are

there not as a tourist, but as a part of the community.

Internships are long-term; you can spend up to a year absorbed in a different culture, which widens

your perspective on life even more. So how is it all connected with being a global citizen? In AIE-

SEC we believe that with each experience, four main qualities are being developed: ability to em-

power others, being solution oriented, more self-aware, and in the core of it all lies us being global

citizens. What is it all about? Global citizen or world citizen is someone who is aware of global

events, and is actually interested in them, someone who enjoys taking an active role in contributing

towards making the world a better place for everyone. It is a person who is respectful towards the

world, other countries, their customs, and people as a whole. How do you achieve that?

To my mind, the most unorthodox, the most interesting, the toughest, and simply the best way to do

it is to travel and see everything with your own eyes, to be exposed to different cultures, to share sto-

ries and memories with people from all around the world. Living a real experience. That’s what it is

all about. And by living a real experience you can create real impacts and break stereotypes along the

way. If you set off on such an adventure, the most important thing is to be open, and always be grate-

ful for all the experiences that you have during that time. And with a volunteering or a professional

internship, you can meet people from all around the globe, and together you can learn and discover

more.

Blessed by you, Mom A mother who always cares,

A mother who's always there,

A mother who always prays,

A mother who always stays.

When things get rough,

When life gets tough,

When all is just too much to bear.

God's word she shares.

God's light she shines.

I feel so blessed

That god made this mother mine.

LOVE YOU MOM!

HAPPINESS

Happiness comes now and then,

We cannot be sure just when.

But when its there, enjoy each hour

Because happiness has such power.

Joy to you it will bring

Even make someone else sing.

What peace of mind happiness can

show

Making you and others glow.

Nurture it, make it last

Forget the troubles of the past.

Never fear that it will go

For it could always grow.

And then tomorrow there it will show.

Paras Kohli

VII– A

A Name Everybody has a name.

Some are different.

Some are same.

Some are short.

Some are long.

All are right.

None are wrong.

My name is 'Anishka'

Its special to me.

Its exactly who I

Want to be.

Anishka Salaria

II- C

ART Art has a meaning uncertain

and boundaries unexplored.

Sketching is all they link art with

But we mustn't believe what we are told.

You create art when you dance

And while you hit the drums,

When you compose lines out of your heart

That will be remembered for years as art.

Art isn't just painting strokes forth and back

It is skill, talent, flair and knack.

Anvi Mishra

IX- A

Dirt On My Shirt

There's dirt on my shirt

And leaves in my hair

There's mud on my boots

But I don't really care.

Playing outside is so much fun

To breathe the clean air

And feel the warm sun

To stomp in a big puddle

And have a lot of fun.

Udaiveer
