Dear WIN Family,
Warm greetings!
Welcome to a brand-new issue of WIN Times!
What a wonderful academic year it has been so far. The Winchester corridors, grounds, and classrooms have been buzzing with activity – enriching learning, exciting initiatives, events, active participation by all stakeholders, and so much more. The positive energy is undeniably contagious, and we are looking forward to 2023 bringing us more happiness, achievements, and reasons to celebrate.
Winchester is a school which doesn’t rest on its laurels. We strive to make tomorrow better than today, and it is that spirit that guides us at WIN Times. As the official magazine of Winchester, we understand and honour the responsibility entrusted on our shoulders. Our endeavour was and will always be to create a superlative reading experience for the WIN Family.
The Winchester talent is paramount, and it is very evident in the rich variety of articles in this issue. The supremely talented WIN Times columnists cover an expansive range of topics between them- philosophy, the environment, and global citizenship, to baking, the history of inventions, wellbeing, and sports, just to name a few. Another column we are extremely excited about is WIN Alumni Connect which will share inspiring stories of Winchester alumni making their mark in the world. We have commenced the column with an insightful interview with Aakanksha Mathur, Class of 2019. We are also very grateful to Ms. Veronika Lambova, Primary librarian for gracing WIN Times as a columnist since the first issue and spreading the joy for reading. Thank you to Mr. Gaber, Head of Arabic and Islamic Education, for the absorbing article about the Hajj simulation.
And finally, the pièce de resistance of the issue – an exclusive interview with our exemplary Principal Ms. Meenakshi Dahiya. A must read for the entire Winchester community! On that note, we would like to thank Ms. Meenakshi for being our source of inspiration and guidance for all that we do at WIN Times. We are ever so grateful.
Wishing everyone a restful winter break. We’ll see you in 2023!
Warm regards, Mishal Faraz Founder, Editor-in-Chief, and Graphic Designer
