Dear Manthan School Community, Greetings!

Manthan continues to achieve new milestones, inspire excellence, and foster a supportive environment where students can grow in confidence. We focus on creating opportunities that challenge and motivate our students, helping them become successful and self-reliant individuals.

The month of July has been particularly eventful, with significant activities including the Student Council Elections and Investiture Ceremony, the Future Pathways Festival, Srijan – a Math Week, the Cambridge Interschool Literature Festival, and a few Interschool Sports events where students performed admirably, along with wonderful assemblies reflecting the dynamic spirit of our school.

This year, we expanded Student Council representation beyond the high school to include middle and primary school students. These young leaders, elected as council members for their respective sections, are eager to develop their leadership skills and make meaningful contributions to the school community. At Manthan, we are committed to the holistic development of our students, ensuring they excel academically while growing into responsible and engaged citizens. By involving students in leadership roles and promoting democratic values, we aim to cultivate a strong sense of responsibility and civic engagement that will benefit them in the future.

We celebrated Srijan – Maths Week, a school-wide event dedicated to numbers and problem-solving. This event deepened our students' appreciation for mathematics by making learning both enjoyable and inspiring, igniting a lasting enthusiasm for the subject.

Additionally, we hosted the Cambridge Interschool Literature Festival for the first time for high and middle school students from the International Schools of Hyderabad. The event featured debates, creative advertisements, cartoons, extempore speaking, and more. It showcased students' talents, encouraged critical thinking, and fostered a sense of community and respect for diverse viewpoints, helping them become more articulate and confident.

This month, we also hosted the largest university fair ever, with over 100 prestigious universities from around the globe visiting our campus. For the first time, we organised breakout sessions during this fair, all of which were fully attended. This exposure not only broadened the perspectives of our senior students but also empowered both students and parents with a comprehensive understanding of the factors to consider when making well-informed decisions about their higher education.

I appreciate the efforts of our students and teachers in successfully managing these significant events. Their passion and dedication are key to our success, and I am confident that this enthusiasm and commitment will continue as we provide more excellent learning opportunities in the months to come.
