The mother school boasts of a glittering Alumni Hall of Fame with names like Homi Jehangir Bhaba, Mohammad Ali Jinnah, Salman Rushdie and many more.

The school also believes in imparting knowledge and education to anyone who asks for it, without any discrimination.

 "We do not deny education to any child if we have got space. We will take even special needs children. That is a major USP of the school. Typically a kid will spend 8 years in this school, after which he will do 4 years of graduation and then he will do 2 years of post-graduation, so that is 14 years and if there is an internship, its 15 years. Now, in this 15 years, the world will have changed twice, and all the information of today will be irrelevant and useless. So what we need to do is to train the mind to be ready to deal with information, anytime, anywhere and any form. And that is how this school is different from others." - Dr. Aninda Chaterji, Principal, the Cathedral Vidya School

 Education Beyond The Classroom

 The school believes that every child is unique and provides umpteen numbers of opportunities to nurture their talent.

Introducing CIMUN 2019 @ Best IB schools in Pune

Model United Nations, also known as MUN, is an academic simulation in which students find themselves in the shoes of international ambassadors who represent various countries of the world in different UN organs and specialized agencies. It is an extracurricular activity which takes place at MUN conferences, usually organized by high schools or college MUN clubs. The participants, also regarded as ‘Munners,’ have the opportunity to draft resolutions and find solutions to global issues. 

The aim of the United Nations is to prevent conflicts and promote international peace and cooperation. It is a forum that allows representatives of various countries to let their stance on various issues be known and eventually arrive at a common resolution after several discussions. Numerous organs of the United Nations help facilitate its smooth functioning and likewise, numerous committees in a MUN ensure its efficiency. 

What does it take to be a ‘Munner’? Soft skills such as research, communication, critical thinking, creativity, teamwork and leadership abilities help a student to excel when it comes to Munning. A MUN is all about cooperation and not about competition. As a delegate, one is expected to play his/her part by sticking to the foreign policies with respect to the country he/she represents, but should also know when to compromise with others to arrive at a collective resolution that results in the success of the committee’s objectives. 

This is a learning experience which is as important as any other academic qualification due to the important educational value it attaches to a student’s life.

Cathedral Vidya School Lonavala,  best boarding schools in Maharashtra conducted its first Model United Nations Conference in the year 2011 and has been promoting students all over Maharashtra to be a part of this heuristic experience ever since.

This year, in the 8th annual edition of CIMUN, we have 8 different committees with their respective agendas to make the youth of this day involve itself in global conversations of under importance.

We are also conducting an International Press Corps conference for the first time which will occur on the second evening of our prestigious conference. Through this, we hope to enhance the role of press and involve the chairs and co-chairs into the affairs of the conference even more and thus, increase the responsibilities their role encompasses.

We hope to welcome several schools this time and ensure to provide a memorable learning experience that proves to be embedded in the minds of its participants.

Why Is A Boarding School Experience Important?

The Cathedral Vidya School is an international residential school offering the British National Curriculum in Middle School, the Cambridge IGCSE in Grades 9 and 10 and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program also popular as the IB Diploma Program in Grades 11 and 12. When students are studying international curricula in India, it is not compulsory for them to pursue their academics in universities abroad. They can continue their academics and career-oriented professional development in Indian Universities and colleges.

When it comes to pursuing further academics in India as students and parents it's important to understand that there are three types of institutions the IB students must choose from. This defines their path ahead: The first one is the traditional colleges and universities which have a competitive cut off percentage and application-oriented admission procedures where students pursue Bachelor of Science, Commerce or Arts. The IB students find it difficult to adapt in such schools, colleges or universities not only because of their learning profile but also because they are THINKERS and groomed for their professional development. So their approach is more focused and enhanced. The second type of colleges and universities are the ones which admit students post competitive examinations for which the students prepare themselves, attempt the exams and take a seat in the pre-designed course of Engineering, Medical Science, and Biotechnology etc. Modern universities are the third type of institutions most of the IB students prefer to join. They have merged the national and gurukul style of institutions with modern features which are career-oriented and also prepare the students to pursue further academics in international universities or colleges.

Here a boarding school near Pune experience plays the key role. Academics are just one part of the holistic development required by students in their years at school. They require a podium where they know themselves and can express themselves confidently. IB students are groomed into decision making right from an early age, it may begin with choosing their clubs and sports activities and grow into choosing their topics for subjects like Extended Essay and TOK. Students must also select their own subjects’ right from Grade 9 onwards. So somewhere they take the driver's seat when it comes to major decisions in their lives right from their early teenage years, thereby making responsible and thoughtful individuals.   Students are outspoken and a boarding school provides the right environment for them to test their own limits and understand their own capabilities. Social skills and engaging in a healthy community lifestyle is also developed in boarding schools.

When a student completes their Grades 10 or 12 in a boarding school, they are ready to face the challenges that come with university life namely self-care and life skills such as laundry management and a healthy diet, a healthy routine with the right amount of focus on academics, sports, extracurricular activities and social life. Students are groomed for life with a holistic development.

Time management is a bonus which comes in-built in an IB student. Both IGCSE and IB are assessment oriented programs and time management skills are the secret to success in the Cambridge IGCSE and IB Diploma Program.

Students need the boarding school experience to be confident and wise while they find their path to their careers and ambitions. A boarding school is a world made for children where they can be themselves in the safety and security of a closed community. They do not get affected by the social and political chaos in general, which does pose a threat for day scholars while they commute to and fro from school.

Peer learning is the best influence of boarding schools. Students in the Cathedral Vidya School, best residential school in Mumbai imbibe self-discipline as they learn to value mutual respect. With in-house College Counseling facilities, students avail the opportunity to apply to as many universities possible requesting for admissions. The College Counselor guides and assists the students in preparing their profiles and documents, pacing their applications according to the university prescribed deadlines. The School Counsellor guides and helps students adapt and find their way in moments of difficulty; it could be emotional, academic or social in nature.

The Cathedral Vidya School is also an inclusive school. Here the students are also assisted by Special Education Needs #SEN Counsellor.

A boarding school in Mumbai is the best combination of infrastructure, resources, mentorship, teaching-learning experiences and relationships, creating the ideal environment for the development of students. Their overall wellbeing grooming is done at its best in a good boarding school.

Visual Arts Worksop at IBDP Schools near Mumbai

Visual Arts in IBDP: One of the favourite subjects students love to study and express themselves in as IBDP coherts.  The visual arts are an essential part of daily life. It can be seen in all parts of humanity and human nature, going beyond all levels of creativity, expressions, communication and comprehension. Visual language of communication is not confined to communities, societies, and cultures. They may have sociopolitical impact as well as ritual, spiritual, decorative and functional value; they can be persuasive and subversive in some instances, enlightening and uplifting in others.

We celebrate the visual arts not only in the way we create images and objects, but also in the way we appreciate, enjoy, respect and respond to the practices of art-making by others from around the world. Theories and practices in visual arts are dynamic and ever-changing, and connect many areas of knowledge and human experience through individual and collaborative exploration, creative production and critical interpretation.

The IB Diploma Programme visual arts course encourages students to challenge their own creative and cultural expectations and boundaries. It is a thought-provoking course in which students develop analytical skills in problem-solving and divergent thinking, while working towards technical proficiency and confidence as art-makers. In addition to exploring and comparing visual arts from different perspectives and in different contexts, students are expected to engage in, experiment with and critically reflect upon a wide range of contemporary practices and media. The course is designed for students who want to go on to study visual arts in higher education as well as for those who are seeking lifelong enrichment through visual arts.

Supporting the International Baccalaureate mission statement and learner profile, the course encourages students to actively explore the visual arts within and across a variety of local, regional, national, international and intercultural contexts. Through inquiry, investigation, reflection and creative application, visual arts students develop an appreciation for the expressive and aesthetic diversity in the world around them, becoming critically informed makers and consumers of visual culture.

Our Champions in Visual Arts

Our Students displayed their art work at an exhibition held at IBDP Schools near Mumbai, which was attended by their parents, teachers and friends.

Prahan Pacher from the IBDP Class of 2018presented a variety of expressions in his art work reflecting HUMAN NATURE in the exhibition titled: “A world war one gas mask with a grin” It represented the two sides of human nature – The helpful and the sadistic. The gas mask was an inspiration from the gas masks which were distributed during the world war to protect the people from gas bombs which could be dropped during air raids.People feared chemical weapons which were used in World War Two. He used clay, papier mache, and acrylic paint to create this gas mask.

Hoejung Jung from the IBDP Class of 2018 presented her paintings reflecting her personal experiences with stereo type judgements in the exhibition titled COMPLEX & STEREO TYPE.

Through these paintings she has tried to raise an awareness about stigmatic issues and emotions, expressing how a young girl feels when she is teased or criticized and made fun of for reasons beyond her control.She enjoyed this entire process from the conception of the thought and selecting the topic to the presentation at the exhibition. She expressed her gratitude to her friends especially those who helped her through-out the process, by sharing their experiences and just talking about it helped align the content and express those emotions through her paintings. The inspiration and steady assistance from Nupur, Sanchi & Ashwath made them her pillars of strength.

Hoejung Jung presented 11 works of art out of which “Pimple-egg” is her most iconic presentation.

“Based on my personal experience with pimples, I was teased by my class mates [In my previous institution] because my face was full of pimples. I suffered from appearance complex, overcoming that was a long process over the years; beingteased / teasing others is not a very nice thing to do.  We need a more empathetic and supportive environment especially at best IB board schools Mumbai among peers with such advanced emotional awareness available these days.”

HOW BRAIN TRAINING HELPS THE SCHOOL CHILDREN?

Do you know what is Brain Training and how it really helps the children and how the best boarding school in Mumbai can really help to be a part of the existing teaching methodology for your children?

Well, you must know how the engaging factors of brain training allow the children to strengthen cognitive skills or a specific cognitive skill and through the computerized practice it grows out to be something better than before.

Brain Training helps the young children to train the following;

·         Enhanced attention span

·         Processing information quickly

·         Retaining information

·         Enhanced memory and retention of information

·         Ability to shift attention from one place to another effectively

Our mind is one of the most valuable tools nature has gifted us, and unless it is being used it would turn sluggish and inefficient enough to analyze the complicated problems, hence the constant training is required.

Below mentioned are some of the daily exercises co-ed boarding school in Pune follow to increase the potential of their students’ mind.

·         A random approach to explore extensive reading; which can range from magazines, newspapers, to any kind of books. This allows the readers to increase their knowledge of a variety of facts and interesting topics.

·         Practicing Mathematics, which lets the students bring focus, dedication, and intelligence all together at the same time to find out the right solution to a problem.

·         Proper exercise, meditation, and diet are one of the most practiced strategies followed by the IBDP Schools near Pune. It helps in improving the overall ability to perform better.

 The top ib boarding schools in Mumbai are considering this approach more seriously and allowing their students to practice the brain training to master the ability of communication, memory, problem-solving and reasoning.

We, at the Cathedral Vidya school comprehend this very fact and hence have included the vast potential of brain training in our curriculum as daily activities, so students can see the world from a different perspective and perceive, analyze, achieve, and create better solutions.
