Save the Earth Together: Colaba Mangrove Cleanup activity with Acropolis

Grade 11 French/Spanish and Hindi students celebrated Mother Earth Day by volunteering for a Mangrove cleanup organized by Acropolis. Sharing the Planet is one of the core themes of the Language B/Ab Initio syllabus but this activity was a great Group2/ Group 4 and CAS interdisciplinary session. The students and their teachers worked very hard to collect garbage from the mangroves and formed a human chain to shift it to the BMC collecting point. Well done everyone!

Tribes for Good: Community Project

April 1, 2026

Through our partnership with Tribes For Good, Grade 11 student Vipanshi Agarwal designed and led a series of workshops for women with skills in beauty and makeup — combining financial literacy, confidence-building, and awareness of cruelty-free practices. What she found was that the skills were already there. What was missing was someone connecting those skills to the idea of income. This is her reflection on what it means to create impact, and what she learned when she stopped trying to teach and started listening.

Zine, Cosmetics of Capitalism – A passion project

March 31, 2026

Cosmetics of Capitalism began with two things that had always run parallel in Vipanshi’s life: a deep commitment to animal welfare and a growing curiosity about the economic systems that allow cruelty to persist. In this zine, Vipanshi Agarwal investigates the ethical and economic costs of animal testing in the cosmetics industry — an issue she argues is as much a business question as a moral one.
