In a world that’s changing faster than ever, education is no longer just about textbooks and exams — it’s about life skills. On June 8, 2025, our school hosted an exciting and interactive Future Life Skill Webinar attended by students from Grades 8 to 12. The goal? To empower young minds with the essential skills they’ll need to succeed in the real world.
🧠 What Are “Future Life Skills”?
Life skills are abilities that help us handle life’s challenges — both personal and professional. These include:
-
Critical thinking
-
Problem-solving
-
Communication and collaboration
-
Time management
-
Emotional intelligence
-
Adaptability and resilience
-
Digital literacy
As workplaces and communities evolve, these skills are becoming just as important as academic knowledge — if not more.
🗣️ Highlights of the Webinar
The session was led by Ms. Ananya Mehta, a certified life coach and youth mentor with over a decade of experience. Key takeaways from the webinar included:
-
🔍 “Think Before You React”
A practical lesson in emotional intelligence and decision-making. -
📱 “Managing Your Digital Life”
Tips on healthy screen time, online etiquette, and building a positive digital footprint. -
⏳ “Time Is Your Superpower”
Simple but powerful strategies for managing time, staying organized, and setting priorities. -
💬 “Speak Up, Speak Well”
Communication exercises that helped students practice public speaking and active listening.
Students also participated in breakout rooms, mini-quizzes, and real-life scenario discussions. It was more than just a webinar — it was a training ground for life.

🌟 Why It Matters
The world of the future will reward people who can adapt, collaborate, and lead — not just memorize information. Through events like this webinar, students gain real-world insights and develop the confidence to face the future head-on.
