Global Dimensions
Springdales consistently strives to instil in its students the ideals of global interconnectedness and collaboration through the concept of "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam". Over the years, our school has actively engaged in various events within the framework of the Pasch initiative of Goethe Institute.
The 7th annual German Festival, 'Gedanken' showcased the popularity of the German language in schools. In the debate, declamation and art competitions during the event, Team Springdales ideated and spoke powerfully on the use of artificial intelligence, securing the second and third positions in Declamation and Debate respectively. It was praiseworthy that our school's senior German student was among those selected world wide to receive the Pasch-Juku scholarship to St Peter Ording, Germany. Enthusiastic German students secured top scholarships from Fit in Deutsch by Goethe Institute. Senior students participated in a session on Higher Education in Germany at Sanskriti School, and others were trained in baking skills at the German Embassy. At 'Namaste Deutschland', Springdalians participated in a range of workshops including slam poetry, science, films to interactive games. We look forward to resuming the exchanges with Frankfurt, Germany in 2024.
French enthusiasts did us all proud by securing the 1st and 2nd positions respectively at the French Expose at Heritage School. Springdalians topped in all levels and qualified for the final round at the international level at the International French Spell Bee Competition. They also performed exceedingly well in Quizzes and qualified for the final rounds of French Word Power Quiz and Concours Romain Rolland Quiz.
In an outstanding display of talent, our students secured Bronze for their entries to the Queen's Commonwealth International Essay Writing Competition. Our creative writers' excellent expressions were published in their anthologies titled 'Words of Bliss' and 'Whispers of the Twilight Garden'. Their impactful writing won them Gold and top honours in G.E.M.A's English essay writing competition.

Springdalians excelled in the 6th international conference YOUNG SOCIAL SCIENTISTS held online from Bali, Indonesia and were commended for their academic presentations.
