TRANSCRIPT

was held on the 22nd of April, 2018 at the SelaQui Golf Acade-
my.
29 budding golfers from all over the Doon valley arrived at the
picturesque SelaQui golf course. The event was inaugurated by
the School Sports Captain, Gursher Sandhu at about 8 am on
the Sunday morning. He commented upon the sports sophisti-
cated and fine nature and wittingly borrowed the term from
cricket and called it a „true gentlemans game.
Having declared the tournament open, the officials then took
over and explained the rules of the game. They also announced
that the game would be played in the Stable Ford format fol-
lowing
which the
various three balls teed-off kicking start to nine holes of competitive golf.
After about two and a half hours of driving, chipping, putting and occasionally
calling upon the officials in a tricky situation, the golfers turned in their score-
cards and relished the snacks awaiting them at the golf hut.
Manan Mahajan of APS , Dehradun gave a tough competition to Anning
Morang but in the end, the latter emerged winner.
The morning concluded with the awards being handed out by our Chief Guest,
Mr. R. P. Devgan. Amartya Jha of SIS received the award for maximum num-
ber of pars, Anning Morang received the award for the maximum number of
eagles and was also declared the champion of the tournament. Close at his
heels was young Harsh Pegwal as the runners up. It was a perfect conclusion to
a memorable Sunday morning of golfing.

The efforts of our boys were far from prosaic and were exemplary in every way as Kartikeya Puri and Tushar Arya in the dou-

Dhruv Banerjee, showcasing grit and determination, eventually bowed
out after ending up on the wrong side of some edge-of-the-seat thrill-
ers After two days of enthralling tennis, The results were as follows:
Boys’ Singles- Mankirat Singh [Rising Star Academy]
Girls’ Singles - Balishta [MNSS Rai]; Runner Up- Jiya Khaturiya
Boys’ Doubles- MNSS Rai; Runner Up- Rising Star Academy
Girls’ Doubles- Pathways School; Runner Up- MNSS Rai
Tournaments such as ours (and the rewards they give) incentivize
players and consequently foster tennis talent, and in doing so they pro-
vide an invaluable service to the beautiful game that tennis is. It sure
looks like SelaQui has set the tone for an engrossing tennis season
ahead.

A FLITTING TITTLE
It is for past, futures blink
Some think they will sum it up in a wink
Today is a time of humor
Today is a time of joy
It for many a vanity
Having its own streak of insanity
Today is a time of wisdom
Today is a time to think
It is for thinkers a whole new fashion
Here to teach each one a lesson
The one thing that today says,
“Theres no point counting days”
To life there are no two ways
Exploit to the fullest all the todays
TERRY FOX
Bharat Tokas Reports the Marathon that Liberated SeQuins
It takes a lot of courage to give up your sleepy Sun-
day morning for a marathon but the SeQuins exhibit-
ed exemplary enthusiasm on 22nd April and geared
up for the Terry Fox Marathon which is named after
Terrance Stanley (Terry Fox), a Canadian athlete and
cancer research activist.
Fox, a cancer patient, lost his leg to amputation in
1980. He then embarked on an East to West cross
Canada run to raise money and awareness for cancer
research. The run is now the worlds largest one-day
fundraiser for cancer research.
The 8th edition of the Terry Fox Marathon was flagged off from The Doon School in
which 18 SeQuins and many students from other schools participated. Every one
was given a white T-shirt with Foxs portrait on it. The Chancellor of The Doon
School motivated all with his electrifying words, soon after which the runners were
shown the green flag. The 5 km run, as tiring as it was, left everyone strangely elated
and panting.
About 60 SeQuins went on a visit to FRI only
to have the teachers chase after them for the
lure of TIGER (Shroff) was... too much?
Psst… report will be published in next issue

THE ASIAN SCHOOL DEBATE
Rushaan Shah
On the evening of 21st April 2018, 6 SeQuins along with their teacher escort,
Ms. Harveen Kaur Sandhu, set out towards the Asian School, for the Debate
Challenge. The topic for debate was Technology Driven Classrooms Should
Replace Teachers and Can Thus Promote Effective Learning in Schools and
Colleges. A team of two from each school participated both „for and „against
the motion. The contenders from our school were Shaurya Veer Singh and
Vansh Jain (Against and for the motion respectively). A few of the schools
participating were Summer Valley, Ecole Globale, St.Judes, Convent of Jesus
and Mary, Sherwood College, St. Josephs Academy, RIMC. The competition
was quite tough and it got pretty intense towards the end. Awards like Promis-
ing Speaker (for and against) , the Best Debater and the Best Team were given
out. Overall, the debate competition was dominated by Sherwood College. In
the end, the students were treated to an elaborate dinner after which we re-
turned home with a bag full memories and experience in the art of public ora-
tion.
THE ART OF SCULPTING
The perfect time to do something creative could be under a star lit sky or
after a satisfying lunch! Creating something is always a good idea and
we could not agree more.
The Inter-House sculpture making competition was held on 22nd April.
The students had about 3 hours on their hands after dinner on Sunday to
turn a piece of clay into a magnificent sculpture. By the end of the stipu-
lated time, students had worked wonders. Each house was given a
theme. Agni house had to create sculptures along the lines of „Agnian
civilization, Jal house was allotted „Wildlife Sanctuaries, Prithvi and Akash were given „Hunting and „Humans Can Teach Animals
respectively. The results are yet to be declared.

COLLEGE BOUND On 20th April, the 10, 11,12 graders gathered outside the MPH for this year's Career Fair. The representatives of a number of colleges and Universities in the USA gave SeQuins a brief introduction to their institution follow- ing which the students went to the counters that interest- ed them and asked questions about their admission pro- cedures, eligibility criteria and scholarships. The stu- dents were given brochures with complete information and contact details. Interestingly most universities of- fered 200+ research programmes which fortunately, gives the students a lot of options to choose from. Such fairs open up the students horizon to a plethora of op- portunities out there and help us make informed choices. Kudos! -Saalik Rather
