A Spark can trigger off a disaster or make the wheels of progress move ahead. It all depends on how our youngsters create creative sparks of innovation for the good of themselves and of the humanity. Oakridge International's SPARK is to be seen in this direction. Children today are becoming more and more enterprising. While they may contribute articles and write-ups to popular magazines of choice, or even start their own magazine ((affordably online) they draw satisfaction immense only when their primary aspiration to share their thoughts with like-minded is totally met. Well, over time youngsters will understand how difficult it is to put their convictions across. But with SPARK, no doubt they are sure to reach where they want to.
Magazines attract equally children and adults. School students whatever the class they may be in, are equally charmed by magazines. Overwhelming is the feeling to see their writings in print, to showcase it to fellow students and take every pride in overhearing classmates speak of their published writings. SPARK is an avenue to allow young minds to express what they think most cherishable, lovable and sharable. Intense emotions find release when the student huddles the warmth of SPARK close and feels elated beyond proportions. This is the feeling which SPARK means to evoke in every student of Oakridge International.
Creative competition is given its due credence by SPARK. It isn't enough to read SPARK and someone else's ideas as published in clear print. A deep introspection awakens in students of why not write forth ideas and stories hidden in some corner of their minds; why not release mind’s crest gates such that their creativity gushes forth to lush green all aspiring readers. Is there any parallel to SPARK that can equally achieve this riot of creative exuberance, especially in young innocent minds?
Learning is achieved by SPARK, How? When students start contributing their ideas, and writings they would soon find why some writings are mostly read, and why some aren't. This leads to self assessment, and a casual visit to the teacher which sure will make one do the writing job much better. The higher aim of SPARK is to enable students of all streams to find commonality in all thought and action. Is SPARK destined to prepare students to understand the oneness in the diversity things that surround us?
The success of a magazine depends on quality presentation of articles by the editorial staff. SPARK is the best, and reflects the quality of its editorial staff.
SPARK truely is a complete expression of individuality. SPARK poses the question, if you could become a role model, why not me, and why can't I become a role model for others to follow. Leadership depends on acceptance of people surrounding us. A true leader goes about with his actions with least concern for leadership or its acceptance. Work speaks for itself and sure SPARK brings this message loud and clear to students of Oakridge International. In academics or profession or life, by starting out right, it helps the rest to fall into place, SPARK brings this message to students of Oakridge International.
