Jodhamal School is proud to share a remarkable achievement by one of our bright and talented students, Anandini Sharma, who has not only excelled in academics and sports, but also made an outstanding contribution to literature at a young age. Anandini, a dedicated Class 6 student, has recently published her debut book, showcasing her exceptional ability to engage with complex scientific concepts and present them in an accessible, creative way. Her book, which delves into the fascinating world of agriculture and allied sciences, was officially launched at the Annual National Conference on “Emerging Innovations in Biotechnology & Biochemistry in Agriculture” at the Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology-Jammu by Dr Jitender Singh, Hon’ble Union Minister of State (Ind. Charge) Science & Technology; Earth Sciences; MoS Prime Minister Office, PP/ DoPT, Atomic Energy, Space. The book launch and initiative of such a young author received high praise from more than 500 eminent Scientists, Scholars, and Subject experts from across the country who graced the occasion. What makes this book truly invaluable is that the Hon'ble Vice Chancellor of Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology personally reviewed it and wrote the “foreword” following a careful and thorough evaluation. Anandini’s achievement becomes even more remarkable by the unique approach she takes to explain scientific concepts. Through storytelling, she not only covers fundamental aspects of agriculture but also tackles advanced subjects like microbiology, immunology, agrometeorology, and pathology. Her ability to break down these complex topics into easy-to- understand narratives is a testament to her maturity and insight, making these concepts accessible to younger audiences. Jodhamal School takes immense pride in Anandini’s achievement at such a malleable age. The School’s commitment to nurturing the diverse talents of our students continues to get a boost when our students achieve such feats. Anandini’s success is a shining example of how we encourage creativity, critical thinking, and the pursuit of knowledge beyond the classroom.

Jodhamal Public School is pleased to report that Al Hana Babar, a creative and innovative Class 12th student, has been granted a second patent for a wave energy harvesting device that consists of robust wave energy converters and hydrostatic pressure sensors. The wave energy converters in the device efficiently capture the kinetic energy from ocean waves, while hydrostatic pressure sensors tap into the potential energy beneath the water's surface. These components work seamlessly together to ensure maximum energy extraction from both wave and hydrostatic pressure sources. Al Hana was granted her first patent for handcrafts and textile logistics management that integrates cutting- edge technologies such as Blockchain, IoT (Internet of Things), and AI (Artificial Intelligence) to revolutionize the textile industry's logistical processes and addresses problems like counterfeiting, transparency and pilferage when handicrafts of India are manufactured in villages and transported to cities in India and Internationally. Her designs address key challenges in the textile supply chain and energy domains offering sophisticated designs that enhance efficiency, transparency and energy management. Al Hana Babar, is also a TEDx Speaker and a TEDx Organizer and runs a campaign titled HER DREAM HER CODE for young girls across Jammu and Kashmir where she teaches young girls science experiments and drumming. Mr. Nandan Kuthiala, Trustee of Jodhamal Public School, Ms. Arati Kuthiala Director, Principal Mr. Girish Kumar and Vice Principal, Ms. Amita Arora expressed their sincere appreciation for Al Hana Babar & exceptional efforts which is a testament to her ingenuity and the nurturing environment at JMPS.
Jodhamal Public School recently hosted an Art Therapy Workshop for its teachers, aimed at promoting emotional well-being and self-expression. Led by the experienced art therapists Ms. Pooja Sharma, the workshop provided teachers with a creative platform to explore and express their emotions. Ms Pooja Sharma, the Resource Person, is a well-known certified Neuro-Linguistic Programming Practitioner recognized by the American Board of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, and a Certified Art Therapy Practitioner from VIMHANS, New Delhi. Having pursued Fine Art Courses from Central St Martins, London which is one of the world’s leading centres for art and design education, Ms Pooja Sharma is fully equipped to train children and adults in therapeutic uses of Fine Arts. During the workshop, teachers engaged in various artistic activities, including drawing their emotions using colours and shapes, and creating collages representing their aspirations. These activities allowed them to tap into their inner selves, fostering self-awareness and resilience. With the novel thrust of NEP 2020 on Art-Integration into other technical domains, Art Education has already made in-roads in every educational institution. However, Jodhamal School further lays bare the therapeutic uses of Art through this unique workshop for teachers. Through Art-Integration, schools promote Art as a tool for learning and assessment. However, Art, as a tool for self-expression, providing an outlet for pent-up emotions, leading to mental well-being has been an ignored use of Art which the teachers of Jodhamal explored in this guided workshop. The workshop concluded with a sense of empowerment and renewed energy among the teachers. Through artistic expression, they gained valuable insights into their emotions and experiences, creating a more supportive and empathetic community within the school.

Nimisha Shukla of Jodhamal Public School Jammu made a mark in the International UGC Conference held at Sahara Star Hotel Mumbai where she was a part of the Youth Ministry comprising of 7 students Pan India . Nimisha was shortlisted out of lakhs of students across India to be a part of the Youth Conference as the selection procedure was rigorous with written rounds and multiple skype sessions and telephonic interview rounds. It was a privilege for Jammu to have one of their student in this International Conference in the Youth Ministry to be a member of the penal discussion on “Should Schools introduce the internships and make it mandatory in the school curriculum?. Nimisha was against the topic as she felt that internship is important for the students to gain confidence but at the same time it cannot be introduced in to the curriculum as the students are already burdened with the Academic and Co Curricular Curriculum in most of the schools and they will find it difficult to do the intern if it is made mandatory. However if it is optional the students who can travel extra miles during the vacations can go in for it. 7 youth ministry members who were selected for this were from elite schools of India and each one was representing a different state and different Board. All students did very well and the Youth Ministry was judged by the panel who declared Nimisha Shukla at the second position and she was awarded by Prof. V. Ramgopal Rao the Director of IIT New Delhi. Nimisha is very happy since she was felicitated in the school assembly by Principal Trilok Singh Bist & Trustee Nandan Kuthiala . All wished her for a better future and better board result since she has the acumen like many others at Jodhamal to be the CBSE Topper this year.
