MGD Girls' School celebrated Science Week from 6th October to 11th October 2025 aiming to ignite student`s curiosity about science and to connect science with everyday experiences. It aims to inspire students to explore science beyond textbooks, connecting it creatively with art, sports, music, literature, and their surroundings. giving students a chance to explore scientific concepts in fun, interactive, and creative ways.
DAY1: “Exploring Sports Through Scientific Eyes”
The aim of this event was to help students understand how various principles of science play a crucial role in enhancing their performance in sports and physical activities. Students participated enthusiastically in games such as basketball, football, badminton, and athletics, where they identified and explained the underlying scientific principles like force, motion, friction, gravity, balance, and energy conversion. Through demonstrations and discussions, they explored how these concepts influence their movements, speed and accuracy in the game.
DAY2: “Rhythms of Science”
Day 2 of the Science Week Celebration focused on the theme “Rhythms of Science’’. Students enthusiastically explored how scientific principles such as sound, vibration, pitch, frequency, and resonance are involved in creating music and understanding scientific principles behind sound, music, and instruments. They demonstrated various musical instruments, explained the science behind their functioning and even created simple instruments using waste materials.
The highlight of the day was the presentation of science jingles, songs, designing their own musical instruments and musical formulas, based on scientific concepts, which made learning rhythmic and memorable. Through these creative performances, students discovered how closely music and science are connected. The activity encouraged creativity, innovation and teamwork, showing that science can be expressed beautifully through art and sound. It also emphasized on helping students see music not just as art, but also as an application of scientific principles.
DAY3: “Creative Sparks: Science & Art”
Today, MGD Girls` School celebrated Day 4 of the ongoing Science Week, which focused on the theme “Correlation of Science with Art – Optical Illusions.”
Optical illusions are fascinating visual effects where the eyes and brain perceive images differently from reality, showing how science and art beautifully intertwine.
All the students from Classes VI to IX enthusiastically participated in this creative and scientific activity.The highlight of the day was the student`s creative display of optical illusions made on the floor where they artistically demonstrated how geometry, symmetry, and perspective can create visual effects that deceive the eye.Additionally, they designed chemical Rangoli, creatively incorporating chemical formulas and reactions into their patterns, which helped them visualize scientific concepts through art.
After completing their creations, students explained the science behind their artwork, showing how observation, angles, and chemical knowledge influence both art and perception.. The activity was an engaging and imaginative experience, inspiring students to observe how science and art beautifully merge to create the magic of illusion.
DAY4: “Campus Curiosity: Science Around Us”
Today, MGD Girls` School celebrated Day 5 of the ongoing Science Week which focused on exploring Science in the School Campus. All the Classes from VI to IX moved around the campus in their regular science period to identify scientific concepts and phenomena present in everyday surroundings.
Checkpoints were set up at different locations and at each point, students carefully observed, recorded, and analyzed the science behind what they saw, such as physical forces, plant biology, environmental factors, and simple machines. Students explored science concepts such as force and pressure (fire extinguisher, fountain), micro organisms ( fountain) oscillatory motion (swing), lever principle (playground equipment), reflection of light (mirror surfaces), friction (movement on different floor types), sound propagation (school bell), Vermicomposting, biodegradable waste( dustbins), rain water harvesting etc. In addition to the given checkpoints, students also discovered new spots in the campus where different science principles could be observed.
This activity encouraged curiosity, observation skills, and practical understanding, helping students realize that science is all around them, not confined to textbooks or laboratories. It was a fun, interactive way to connect classroom knowledge with real-world applications.
