Raising Young Artists and Creative Individuals - NHPS

Raising Young Artists and Creative Individuals!

“Creativity is Intelligence Having Fun”

Remember the television advertisement we all saw where the little boy is home alone and trashes the houses with eggs, stationary, color and leaves the house in a mess while his mother comes over, comforts him for failing and actually helps him complete the experiment he wanted to administer? Well, although that is rather exaggerated because we all know what would happen in an Indian household for a house that looked like an air crash had occurred in it. However, we cannot help but wonder if every parent started hyping their child’s creativity and artistic nature (which may sometimes take odd turns, we agree)?

We have seen a massive rise in kids that want to be painters, actors, dancers, singers, musicians, directors and other professions where creativity and art is the main focus. In fact, the world has opened up to people who were confined by destiny or choices in other professions too! We see engineers becoming successful photographers (not just Farhan Qureshi from 3 Idiots), doctors become authors and what not!

Did you know that Walt Disney, the man that gave us Mickey Mouse and his gang of friends was told he “Lacked imagination” at a newspaper company where he worked as an editor? Jeff Bezos had a fluid career at the Wall Street in Computer Science. Martha Stewart was a full-time model and Terry Crews a renowned Basketball player. Some of the people we know today started off with completely different careers but thanks to their creativity and ability to struggle into what fit them best they were able to deliver to their fullest potential in the artistic field of their choice.

Now, for your Walt Disneys and Jeff Bezos who seem to be stuck in a world where conforming is the highest goal, how can you help them reach their full potential?

Parents may see that their child has a creative side to them, writing diaries, being interested in cars, music, acting and more can all be signs that your child is of a creative mindset which needs to fostered. Here are 5 tips to support your child in the field they find happiness in:

  • Enroll them: Every field and industry now have courses that kids can take, whether it is app development or acting. When you find out your child has a passion beyond the books let them explore that horizon by finding out what courses they can take. Writing, directing, acting, painting, development, the list is endless for students to partake in.
  • Discover with them: Let your child discover their talents by encouraging them, not just by words but also by actions. If your child is interested in flowers, take them to sanctuaries and forest lands close by for them to look, learn and explore. If your child likes stand up comedy and enjoys writing, take them to shows that they can watch and take inspiration from.
  • Guide them: Creativity is a linear process. We see children learn and excel at instruments and them abandoning them when they have received the grade they wanted to. Allow the child to focus on learning more then achieving mastery. Mastery comes over time and practice with its own share of mistakes.
  • Allow questioning: you may not know all the answers but you can help them find answers. Questioning is a major part of active learning and unlearning. Your child asking questions and you encouraging them through the process is the best way to help ignite their creative mind.
  • Don’t stop dreaming: sadly, we live in a society where creative individuals and artists are often told to find ‘real jobs’. No matter what, do not allow taunts and criticism to take over your child’s passion. Stand with them through it all. Your child needs your support the most. Allow your child to be original. The voices back down when a parent stands up!
  • Finding the right school: a school that supports your child just as much as you is not impossible to find. The best schools in Bangalore and top 10 icse schools in Bangalore like New Horizon Public School (NHPS) work with the parent to help their child reach their full potential and achieve their dreams, no matter what that might be.

Make mistakes, get messy, don’t stop encouraging, be open-minded while also allowing your child to isolate and work alone. Education is no more bound by books; it is multifold. Dance, music, theatre, film making, sports, are all given the same importance as a doctorate, engineering, accountancy, etc. What your child chooses depends on how liberal and understanding you are going to be. So, take the opportunity and let your child work their way out with flying colors!

    Atal Tinkering Lab

    The students were given a challenge to build their own robot, with no restrictions attached!

    In this era of technology, rapid developments are being made everyday especially in the field of electronics, where automation of dangerous tasks is the top priority.

    This is how ATL (ATAL TINKERING LAB), a version of scientific innovation from young minds, finds a mark on NHPS.

    Our students rose to the occasion in translating their creative and innovative skills in science and technology.  They utilized the facilities provided by the school and came up with successful projects which would benefit mankind and our country in particular.

    Transport

    Strong bonds of friendships are forged during these journeys. The journey can sometimes be long and tedious for the students. This can hamper their concentration level and their eagerness to learn. The comfort and safety of our students is of paramount importance to us. In order to ensure a comfortable and safe journey, New Horizon Public School introduced a fleet of luxury, AC buses this academic year.

    These AC buses are new and comfortable. The children can relax and enjoy their time with their friends without being disturbed by the noises coming from outside. The children come to school feeling fresh and eager to begin a new day in school.

A well-stocked first aid box will always be available for immediate treatment. The first aid kit is fully equipped and is kept handy. We ensure adequate nursing and care is given to the affected children. 

    Life Skill Lab

    of the hour that we equip our students so well that they are able to deal effectively with the demands and challenges of everyday life. With this objective in mind, the latest addition to our facility is a well-equipped Life Skills Lab. It is almost a miniature home and work setup, put into one beautiful space with counters, furniture and all materials and amenities which can be utilized by the children to learn these everyday skills hands-on. We have planned supervised sessions with age-appropriate activities that will help children improve their fine motor skills, organizing skills and also teach them self-care, discipline, and functional skills, which in turn they will use on an everyday basis, and help them grow into organized, systematic and self-reliant individuals

    Respected Madam,

    I am writing this e-mail with immense happiness and gratitude. To see Niharica improve slowly and steadily has given me a lot of confidence that she will do well in her academics even in her higher classes. She now reads very well and independently. She also remembers things better. Her writing has improved as well.

    I would like to thank you mam for your patience, understanding and encouragement. I would also thank the school management for having such a set up where the kids can be given special attention to improve in the areas that they are weak in.

    Mam, I am sure that with your guidance Niharica will have a wholesome growth. Thank you once again.

    Yours sincerely,
    Malathy
