PLOGGING DRIVE 2.0: CLEANING WITH A PURPOSE

To mark World Environment Day, the students of Guru Ram Dass Academy, in collaboration with the Philanthropy Club, participated in Plogging Drive 2.0—a commendable initiative promoting environmental awareness and civic responsibility.

Beginning at 5:30 a.m., the students collected litter from the school premises and along the route to the Rose Garden, demonstrating that meaningful change begins with individual action. The waste gathered during the drive was responsibly deposited at the designated disposal site.

More than a cleanliness campaign, the initiative served as a practical lesson in environmental stewardship, instilling the values of responsibility, sustainability, and community participation. Through their enthusiastic involvement, the students contributed towards creating cleaner surroundings while reaffirming their commitment to a greener and more sustainable future.

MUSIC AND MIRTH IN THE MIDDLE OF ROUTINE

In the midst of an ordinary school day, amidst schedules, classrooms, and countless responsibilities, a few unplanned moments of music quietly turned the routine into something memorable.

As laughter mingled with melody and colleagues gathered in effortless camaraderie, the atmosphere acquired a rare warmth of its own. Adding soul to those moments was Gagneet Singh, who did splendid justice to the instruments, allowing the music to flow with grace and vitality.

Sometimes, even within the busiest hours, a song is enough to remind us that fellowship too is a beautiful form of harmony.

GRD Academy Ludhiana & PCTE Baddowal — A Meaningful Confluence of Learning and Possibilities

Friday, 15th May, 2026

Education acquires its deepest meaning when institutions come together to create experiences that extend learning beyond the confines of classrooms. In this spirit of academic collaboration and shared vision, the students of Class XII of GRD Academy Ludhiana visited PCTE, Baddowal for an enriching and thoughtfully curated educational interaction that seamlessly blended learning, exploration, and inspiration.

The visit unfolded as a vibrant exchange between two institutions committed to nurturing young minds and preparing them for an evolving world. The dynamic campus environment at PCTE, alive with creativity and purposeful engagement, offered students an opportunity to experience firsthand the energy and possibilities that define contemporary higher education.

Students from different streams participated enthusiastically in a variety of engaging activities designed to combine knowledge with experiential learning. Commerce students explored business concepts through interactive games and analytical exercises, while students from Science and Humanities immersed themselves in practical activities and hands-on sessions that transformed theoretical understanding into meaningful experience. Throughout the day, learning remained active, collaborative, and deeply engaging.

The guided tour across various departments — including Fashion Designing, Hospitality, Commerce, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Engineering, and allied disciplines — enabled students to gain valuable exposure to diverse academic and professional pathways. The experience encouraged curiosity, broadened perspectives, and offered students a clearer understanding of future opportunities and aspirations.

Equally memorable was the warmth and gracious hospitality extended by the PCTE fraternity. The thoughtfully arranged interactions, souvenirs, and student engagement activities created an atmosphere of welcome and mutual respect that reflected the values both institutions seek to uphold.

The visit also stood as a proud reflection of the ethos of GRD Academy Ludhiana. The discipline, enthusiasm, curiosity, and dignified conduct displayed by the students throughout the programme earned appreciation and exemplified the spirit of responsible and eager learning.

Such collaborations between schools and institutions of higher education play a significant role in shaping young learners. They help bridge the gap between academic study and practical exposure, encourage informed career choices, and inspire students to approach the future with confidence and openness.

GRD Academy Ludhiana expresses its sincere gratitude to the entire PCTE, Baddowal fraternity for hosting the students with such care, professionalism, and warmth. The visit was not merely an excursion, but a meaningful academic partnership that celebrated learning, aspiration, and the shared commitment of both institutions towards empowering the next generation.

GRD ACADEMY: TRAINING TOMORROW’S FOOTBALLERS

Every evening, our football field comes alive with energy, ambition and the spirit of the beautiful game. Boys, girls and young beginners train together in an inclusive environment where talent is nurtured through discipline, teamwork and intelligent coaching.

Conducted under the aegis of Fateh Panjab Sporting Club Football School, the sessions are professionally planned and expertly executed by Coach Parteek, whose dynamic approach has rapidly made football one of the institution’s most sought-after sports.

Training begins with dynamic warm-ups, followed by technical drills focused on one-touch passing and movement. Football fitness sessions with parachute-assisted sprinting help build speed, stamina and explosiveness, while age-specific small-sided games sharpen decision-making, dribbling, passing and goal-scoring instincts in real-game situations.

The day concludes with jogging, stretching and recovery routines, as players reflect, regroup and prepare for the next session with renewed hunger.

More than just football coaching, these sessions are shaping confidence, character, fitness and sporting excellence — one pass, one sprint and one goal at a time.
