AWARENESS
th
On 8 September 2019, GIHS students had an
incredible time during the second ‘Drop Down Day’. It
was designed to strengthen our curriculum and make
student learning more effective and relevant. The
DDD activities offered a chance for self-reflection
and deeper learning by encouraging students
to ‘internalise, think and ask questions.’
‘Drop Down Days’, also known as ‘off-timetable’
days, replaced the structured classroom lessons with
activities used to strengthen students’ practical
application of skills and provide a deeper learning
experience. DDD activities were also utilised to help
students build confidence and public speaking skills.
The second Drop Down Day facilitated to raise
awareness about the environmental issues. The GIHS
Green youth is thus working and helping to make a
difference in building a positive and sustainable
future.
