STUDENT COUNCIL Report 2020-21

“ Begin to be now what you will be hereafter ”
– William James
GLOBAL PUBLIC SCHOOL 2021
Through a year like no other that tested the endurance and willpower of all , the student council conducted activities to bring the student body together even in the times we were distanced .
This year ’ s edition of the cultural jamboree Crossroads was conducted digitally for the first time and brought together students from schools across Kerala . Participants showcased their talents in events ranging from Languages to Commerce and Art & Design .
Special events commemorating Environment Day , National Sports Day , Independence Day , and Teachers Day were also conducted online with great success for students and teachers
Through the chaotic times of the past year , the Happiness Committee and Peer Mentorship Program were created to focus on helping students cope with stress and work . Students were provided with support in areas of academics where they needed help and were given an outlet to voice their doubts .
The Happiness Committee also began the mental wellness talk show titled Happiness Algorithm with periodic installments on topics around the primary theme of positivity to promote happiness and wellbeing among listeners .
As a student council , we established communication as a priority and are proud of the team spirit we inculcated over the online medium . We are grateful to the management , teachers , and our peers for this opportunity to serve , and wish the arriving council the best in all their efforts .
