I’m Nethra.A studying in 10th grade.I’ve always been passionate about Bharatanatyam, tennis, public speaking, music and art. I have been able to learn the art of self expression, I have always loved expressing my opinions, which was evident when I first attended a model United Nations conference, where I discovered that I had the ability to generate quick counter arguments, address issues and to come up with reasonable solutions by connecting and analysing the data I receive. This has been the spark of my aim, wanting to use the power of speech to change the world. As I am an eco friendly person, I’ve been part of several activities, ranging from cleaning public places and creating awareness among people.

This is Pavishka. An enthusiastic 11th grader who strives to learn and sculpt herself from tidal waves, that is everyday life experiences.I am grateful to have gained ever-renovating learning experiences from speaking platforms such as my school stage to Model United Nations(MUN), in which I won a Best delegate award and received an opportunity to Co-Chair for a MUN event.As a child I mainly relied on made up stories that helped me remember historical timelines for my social exam but now, as a teen, I take on a quest to find real life experiences and events that sculpt the right version of myself to face the future. I am proud to say that I have gained awareness of some of the major problems in the world at an earlier age than many because of my exposure to global research and practical learning.

I am Sahaana, a student of grade 10. I am just another student waiting for the perfect opportunity to shine. I enjoy books, music, art, debates, thinking and reflecting on things and life. I’ve always been fascinated by the word “impact”, looking for doors to create one. That coupled with my passion for public speaking is the reason I’m here. With the busyness of everyday, people often forget to connect with themselves, not realising the significance it holds. When I realised that, I wanted to talk about it, and this is the stage.
