“Sustainable Development requires human ingenuity. People are the most important resource”Round Square Conference hosted by
Seth Anandram Jaipuria School, Kanpur from 19th & 20th December 2020 on the theme
‘Eunoia - As Excellence Evolves’, began with great zeal represented by
Himakshi Parashar, Divya Ladha, Tejasvini Rathore, Ishita Gandhi, Anishka Anand, Kashish Goplani and Shreya Garg from RKK. Participating Schools were HPS Begumpet, Hyderabad; Sunbeam School, Lahartara; Lawrence School, Ooty; Sai International School Odisha and many more.
The fun packed experience started with a brief about the theme for the conference, which was 16th Sustainable Developmental Goal. The conference became more inquisitive with inspiring thoughts by the first Keynote Speaker, Dr Tamanna Chaturvedi, a faculty at IIFT and a Consultant who motivated the participants to promote entrepreneurship and contribute to the country’s economy. By asking questions in between, the session became more interactive and engrossing. The Case Studies shared by her were a bag full of knowledge, which inspired all students to be young entrepreneurs and discover new ideas.
To carry forward the discussion, delegates were divided into breakout rooms which started with an informal introduction of all followed by sharing views on how to make society more inclusive and a better place to live in. After a healthy discussion, was the fun filled cultural presentation by some schools, which was totally rejuvenating.
Day 2 started with another inspiring Keynote Speaker, Dr Pratima Khandelwal, the Founder of Fly High, MSME Educational Service Support Entity in Bangalore. She inspired on being positive and finding positivity in everything, which would help to become successful, healthier and happier. Again, students were divided into breakout rooms for further discussions which was made more interactive by an informal activity called ‘Make Your Meme’ which was very entertaining. The conference included with a Vote of Thanks and cultural presentation by the remaining schools greatly enjoyed by all.
