INDIAN
SCHOOL MUSCAT LIFTS ZEE MIDDLE EAST QUIZ CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY
Walking down the aisle of success and glory Indian
School Muscat earned top spot in the Quiz competition
organised by Zee TV in Dubai last week.
In the
first ever 2006 Zee Middle East School Quiz, Indian School
Muscat students showed their intellectual acumen and reigned
supreme overshadowing top 155 schools from Bahrain, Qatar, UAE,
Kuwait and Oman.
ISM stalwarts Pranav Laxman of Class IX and Abhijith Anil of
Class VIII with their sterling and scintillating performance
captured all moments to join the top 27 teams for the initial
quarter final round where they were pitted with Modern
High School Dubai and Philippine
School Doha. They
entered the semi finals with ease where they had to compete
with Our Own English High School Sharjah and Indian School Ras
Al Khaimah. In
this round too they were ahead which qualified them to enter
the final where they had DPS Sharjah and DPS Dubai to contend
with. Indian
School Muscat constantly were in the lead and finally bagged
the overall trophy with ease.
With
ardour and passion the two ISM students ventured into the
world of sports, literature, entertainment, lifestyle,
environment, nutrition, natural sciences and current affairs
and with tremendous ease bedazzled everyone.
Praising
the young intellectuals, the Managing Director and CEO of Real
Media-Zee Network Mr. Yogesh Radhakrishnan said: “We want to
use the trophy as a platform for GCC schools to showcase their
young and confident minds. It’s a fun way of making learning
exciting through non-traditional means. We are thrilled to be
contributing towards a culture of knowledge acquisition
amongst these students and to provide schools with a
productive extra-curricular activity.”
Accompanied
by Ms. Sita Venkataraman, teacher-in-charge, the winners have
done ISM proud and brought back home fabulous prizes and
laurels that will always be cherished reminding
everyone of ISM’s success strokes at all international
events.
