Planting of trees for a greener environment is inculcated among the students in Udgam from an early age.

Every year Udgamites plant saplings during the month of July in wake of keeping school green and fresh. This year focus  was on planting saplings carrying medicinal value, so the school procured  40 saplings from an NGO.

The students planted a sapling each, on the school grounds, and pledge to take care of it.

The saplings of Tulsi, Neem, Mango, Jamun, Sal wood, Indian Borage etc were planted enthusiastically by the children.

They thoroughly enjoyed the experience which also included encounter with earthworms.

Apurv Kharidia, a bright and enthusiastic boy, was an Udgamite in the true sense. He was an enterprising student and had great plans for the future, which were shared by his doting parents. But fate intervened in the form of cancer and on 7^th July 1997, Apurv succumbed to the disease after a long struggle. He was in Class 12 Commerce at that time. The family’s tragedy was further prolonged when his mother passed away after a few days.

 In his memory his family instituted the Apurv Kharidia Memorial Prize which is given to the Class 12 Commerce topper every year on Apurv’s death anniversary. Since 7^th July is a Sunday this year, the prize was given on, 5^th July 2013, by his father Mr. Vinod Kharidia to Dhruvi Shah, the school topper in Class 12 Commerce of year 2012-2013. 

Udgam School is recognised as one of the best CBSE schools in the city.

Radio Mirchi paid a visit today with RJ Dhvanit heading a team of three.

They wanted to catch glimpses of the school to get a fair idea of what takes a school to the zenith.

A sneak peek into the ‘heights of glory reached and kept’ was provided in an interview with Executive Director, Mr. Manan Choksi.

The episode is to be aired on Radio Mirchi program ‘Hello Amdavad’.

In association with Prathama Blood Centre, Udgam School held Blood Donation Camp at the two premises, Thaltej and Jodhpur.  There was a good turnout of parents, teachers and staff and other voluntary donors. We appreciate the overwhelming cooperation and support that we have received for this drive. Donating for a good cause takes a new dimension of ‘selfless giving’ when one donates his or her own blood.

Udgam School for Children held its Annual Staff Meet on 8th June, 2013 at Fun Point Resorts, Ahmedabad. The meet was attended by Mr. Rajabhai Pathak, school trustees Mr. Gautambhai Choksi, Mr. V.C.

As the New Academic Year begins, the management of the  school welcomed the teachers and staff members with a lot of motivation and inspiration.

The participants of CAMI were given certificates and scores based on their performance. Parents attended the last day and were guided by the Instructor about their ward’s progress. They were also given a good idea of the course content that was held over a  month long period. The program was a success and helped to hone the language, reasoning and computing skills of the participants. 

The Summer Camp activity ‘Innovations in Art and Craft’ comes to an end. A month long creativity training by experts, where children of Classes I & II learnt various activities in art and craft, had its closing ceremony. Children showcased the articles and paintings that they had prepared including pasta art, terracota art, eye mask and block printing to name a few, in an exhibition open to parents. The colourful display had everyone in raptures and the amazing capabilities of the young kids came to the forte.

Chess, as a part of the Summer Camp activities, came to an end. The coach engaged in simultaneous chess display moves with all the participants to gauge their learning. Parents were very impressed with the varying techniques being used by their children which had been honed over one month. Later on the participants were awarded certificates and a chess technique manual. 

Udgam School started Summer Camp from this year. We have a variety of activities for our students from Classes I to VI. Children have been enjoying themselves thoroughly while learning something new. Here are a few snapshots of the ‘kids at play’.

Here are the names of the school toppers in 3^rd International English Olympiad. Congratulations to all!
