On 18th August 2025, Shree Swaminarayan Gurukul International School, Belagola, Near Mysore, proudly celebrated Science Week – Astro Genius, a special academic initiative designed to ignite curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking among students. The theme of the event, “Astro Genius,” highlighted the wonders of science and encouraged students to engage deeply with practical experiments and hands-on learning.
The program saw enthusiastic participation from students of Grades IV to IX, who showcased their scientific knowledge and innovation through a series of well-prepared activities. Young learners performed science experiments and provided clear explanations of the concepts behind them, demonstrating both understanding and confidence. Each presentation reflected their ability to connect classroom learning with real-life applications, thus fostering a culture of inquiry and exploration at Gurukul Mysore.
A key feature of the Astro Genius Science Week was its emphasis on learning by doing. Rather than limiting science to textbooks, the event gave students the platform to experiment, explore, and explain concepts in their own words. This approach not only built their academic knowledge but also strengthened essential skills like public speaking, teamwork, and logical reasoning.
Students and teachers expressed their joy in witnessing the young scientists at work. The event highlighted the importance of studying science as a means to understand the world better and prepare for future innovations. Students felt motivated to continue exploring scientific concepts with greater enthusiasm, reinforcing Gurukul’s vision of nurturing future leaders in knowledge and values.
