Robotics programme has been a part of the regular curriculum for Cambridge students Grade 2 to Grade 8. To succeed in this information-based and highly technological society, students need to develop their capabilities in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) at different levels. Building a robot involves inference drawing, model construction, testing and controlling a robot calls for the ability to give precise inputs.

When done in a team, robotics calls for collaboration and communication for the project to work. This teaches students valuable life skills in teamwork, communication and even community participation. The rationale for inclusion of robotics in education is thus a well- founded one and stands on solid ground.

Many popular tool kits like LEGO, littleBits, Arduino, Scratch Programming, 3D Design and Printing etc are made available for the students under a single roof for activity-based learning which are highly interactive, educative and informative.

These are Science and Mathematics kits which are given to the students of Grades 1 to 5, to have hands-on experience with experiments and Practical study of scientific and mathematical concepts. Students thoroughly enjoy doing experiments with these kits.

The Transformative Experience of Dramatix Classes

Immersed in the world of Dramatix, students embark on a journey that extends far beyond the realm of acting and drama. These classes, designed for students aged 6 to 17, serve as a nurturing ground for the development of essential life skills, emphasizing confident and creative communication.

Unveiling the Art of Communication: Within the walls of a Dramatix classroom, communication takes centre stage. It's not merely about theatrical performance; it's an immersive education in the power of expression. Through carefully curated lessons, students explore the nuances of effective speech - from voice modulation to the art of clear enunciation. This foundation lays the groundwork for lifelong proficiency in articulate and impactful communication.

Nurturing Creative Expression: Dramatix is a sanctuary for budding artists. Here, students don't just act; they become storytellers, creators of characters, and weavers of narratives. Through improvisation and scenario-based tasks, imagination flourishes. It's a space where creative boundaries are pushed, unlocking artistic potential that transcends the boundaries of the classroom.

Cultivating Confidence: Within the nurturing embrace of Dramatix, confidence finds fertile ground to grow. The ethos is clear: there are no missteps, only unique expressions waiting to be honed. Through playful games and improvisation, students gradually find their voice, discovering the power within themselves. This newfound confidence isn't confined to the stage; it permeates all aspects of their lives.

Fostering Collaborative Spirit: Dramatix isn't just about solo performances; it's about the power of ensemble work. Students learn the value of teamwork, cooperation, and effective communication within a group dynamic. These skills extend far beyond the stage, enriching their ability to collaborate in real-world scenarios.

Embracing the Three C’s:

Confidence: Dramatix provides a sanctuary for students to explore and express themselves without inhibition, gradually nurturing self-assuredness.

Communication: The curriculum places a strong emphasis on vocal training, eye contact, active listening, and concentration, nurturing well-rounded communicators.

Creativity: Through drama, character development, and storytelling, students are encouraged to embrace their imaginative capacities, unveiling their innate artistic sensibilities.

Dramatix isn't a mere drama class; it's a transformative experience. It moulds young minds, arming them with essential life skills that transcend the stage. Through the art of communication, the embrace of creativity, and the cultivation of confidence, Dramatix empowers students to step into the world as articulate, expressive, and proficient communicators.

Effective communication is vital in all aspects of life. The ability to communicate effectively and fluently increases a child’s self-esteem and confidence. At KENNEDY HIGH the global school, we have understood the need of the hour and have incorporated comprehensive English Communication and Language Proficiency Labs to cater to this need. The communication lab at KENNEDY HIGH the global school is a state-of-the art facility with a digital classroom and provides the right ambience for the ‘out-of-the-box’ thinking that is crucial for any communication training program. Soft skills, body language, voice intonation, modulation, gestures, and tips for effective public speaking are part of this interactive English Proficiency Program. The classes, held on a weekly basis, provide every opportunity for the students to explore their limits of imagination, creativity, vocabulary, and hone their communication skills. The goal is to make them think in English language, remove the mother-tongue influence and give them the ability to present themselves effectively with the style, sharpness, clarity, and ease that comes naturally to a native English Speaker.

Soft skills, multiple intelligences, and emotional intelligences are some of the core concepts that make the framework of the activities conducted in the Personality Development Lab. Students are exposed to various facts of their personality. Through interactive modules, they get an opportunity to collaborate, think independently, learn to follow social etiquette, and emerge as responsible and articulate student leaders.
