The Modern Times - June 2026 (link in the bio)
As we come to the end of another memorable term, we take a moment to reflect on the spirit of our school community, the resilience, and positivity that has carried us through. This term brought moments of change and challenge, but it also brought growth, new opportunities, and many reasons to celebrate.
We are inspired by the way our students have stepped forward with confidence, embraced new experiences, and continued to learn and grow in ways that go far beyond the classroom.
For those joining us for Summer Camp, we look forward to sharing another exciting chapter together. May this holiday be filled with rest, laughter, meaningful time with loved ones, new adventures, and moments that refresh both mind and spirit.
We look forward to welcoming you back with renewed energy and excitement.
Have a safe an enjoyable Summer break!

GEMS Modern Academy participated in the Dubai School Games (DSG) Indoor Cricket Tournament.
- Modern placed 1st in the U-11 Boys category among 22 schools, showcasing exceptional talent and teamwork.
- In the U-15 Girls category, Advika Goenka was awarded the Best Batsman of the Tournament in recognition of her outstanding performance.

It’s not every day that one of India’s most loved and high-profile cricketers drops into school for a quiet afternoon at the nets.

We tried our best to let him enjoy his practice, work on those pro moves, and fly under the radar. Unfortunately for him, our die-hard cricket fans had other plans.

Thank you, Sanju, for spending time with us. What impressed us most wasn’t the cricketing talent (though there was plenty of that), but your humility, graciousness, and the genuine joy you brought to your interactions.

Come back any time you want!
