The climate is changing and B.D. Somani students want to put their best foot forward to combat its dangers. The EMERALD sustainable foundation, CPRA, and MCGM Corporator, Ms. Harshita Narwekar, organised a tree plantation drive on the 5th of June 2022 – World Environment Day at CPRA Greens garden. Manshika and Lahar from Grade 11 and Mr. Siddhesh volunteered to highlight that small endeavours are the stepping stones to fighting against the environmental challenges we all face.
Lo and behold! B.D. Somani grade 6 students put up a series of Greek mythological plays and art exhibits, inspired by their Greek history lessons. In the process, not only did they make their own props with reference to actual Greek artefacts, but they also tried their hand at making 3D jewellery. At B.D. Somani, a single lesson in a single subject is used to impart skills across fields and topics. Stay tuned for more!
In May, we had our first Design and Technology exhibition at the D & T Lab called ‘Mellontikos Technologia – The Future Technology’. Our MS students displayed their work, and were wholeheartedly appreciated by parents and fifth graders who came to the exhibit. We look forward to hosting many such D & T exhibitions, showcasing our students’ exceptional talents, and boosting confidence in their innovative ideas.
At B.D. Somani, we are staunch believers in Project Based Learning. Recently, our 6th grade students went on a museum trip, and used it as inspiration to propose business ideas, create artworks, and write magazine articles. Students summarised their 4-week long research project with presentations to panelists from the fields of Education, History, Art, Business, Investment Banking, and Startups. Curiosity, Collaboration & Courage shaped their ideas and propelled their activities, as they always do in our school.
Our Grade 12 students talk about their experience putting together and participating in our Visual Arts exhibition last month.
Our Grade 8 and 9 students reflect about our recent field trip to Elephanta Caves, a welcome change from our online expeditions the past couple of years.

I decided on B.D. Somani for my child because of the dedication of the teachers towards the students and also because it is one of the only international schools in South Mumbai with a big ground.
