Editorial
“The heights, by great men reached and kept, were not
attained by sudden flight, for, they while their companions
slept, were toiling upwards through the night”.
Dear readers,
Our Founder Chairman Late Colonel P S Satsangi, VSM would say "Learning is lifelong and
it never goes waste, A child has to be taught at his pleasure not at his peril." How true! We
firmly believe that every child is a unique and beautiful God's creation. Thus, we at CSKM
Public School impart both knowledge and learning experiences to students and empower
them holistically for a bright future. We work on implementing a well balanced curriculum
to ensure that the children who walk into the portal of our school will not just love the
school years but truly become rough and tough to face life's challenges.
'Charisma' is a milestone that marks our growth, unfolds our imagination and gives life to
our thoughts and aspirations. On one hand it unleashes a wide spectrum of creative skills
while on the other hand it serves as an yearbook for the students, teachers, parents and
all who are associated with it.
We have for you a wide range of poetry, riddles, paintings, stories, amazing facts and some
other informative and inspirational articles. We, the editorial team, enjoyed the journey
of compiling this magazine as much as the students enjoyed in contributing their articles.
The editorial team owes its gratitude to the Principal, Dr (Mrs) Shakuntla S Jaiman for her
constant support, encouragement and esteemed guidance. We also thank the Editorial
Team of teachers and students for their wholehearted contribution towards the success of
this Journal.

Chairman's Blessings
W
ish you all a very happy New Year, Makar Sankranti, Lohri, Pongal,
Bihu and Republic Day. Ours is a truly amazing country with
unity in diversity. We at CSKM are also somewhat similar, with
students from different regions, different faiths, different languages all
living and studying together. All teachers, other staff and students live and
work in harmony.
I pray to God to bless the wonderful CSKM family and give us strength to
continue doing good work, help each other achieve greater heights. I urge
everyone to be diligent, honest and positive in our everyday life.
Spiritual pursuit helps us to calm our mind and keep our mental balance.
We, Indians have a very rich heritage and culture that has many varied
spiritual traditions. I would urge the young minds to read about them and
see which method appeals to you.
Adopting spirituality in daily life can help us in all aspects of our life
including studies. I request all students to please give it a try and make it
their new year resolution. I wish you a productive and peaceful year ahead.
May God bless!

Principal's Musings
L
ife seems to have come a full circle. Having been there and having done that,
one realises that the Basics are important in all facets of human development.
The wisdom of the ages has been questioned time and again. The swiftly
changing times lead us to contend with a lot of newness and we adapt to it.
At the end of the day it does not matter what we possess or what status we gained
but how much we give of ourselves. At CSKM I wish every individual student and
teacher to live upto these principles…
…and when I retrace the foot prints of our alumni as they traverse their paths, I am
humbled by mighty pride that I experience in CSKM’s contribution to humanity.
Honour and glory to CSKM, the educational philosophy of our beloved Founder
and all stakeholders again and again and again!!!
It’s 15 January 2020 today, Happy Makar Sankranti and onwards to auspicious
beginnings afresh.

"Parents' Speak"
CSKM Public School, as I heard from many is a much desirable place for a
student to be. As I approached the campus a feeling of simplicity surfaced
my mind much needed in the present times. This school keeps the child
busy in creative ways. That way, the teachers channelise the enormous
energies the students have in these growing years. The best part any
parent would like is that students are always with teachers or wardens who keep a
close watch on the activities and well being of children. The class teacher takes a great
responsibility of students and their overall performance. Personal attention is given to
each and every child. Apart from so many good things the one thing that is amazing is
that teachers are in the system for many years and appear to be greatly attached to the
school and the children. I deeply appreciate the confidence, which the class teachers
the subject teacher and wardens have shown, regarding my student’s grooming. All
in all, the school’s contribution in character building in the crucial years of teenage is
commendable. I feel proud and priviledged to be the part of CSKM family.

spent together with friends and teachers and to reminisce joyous
moments. Individual experiences of the students about their
schooling in CSKM were very well conceived and presented. A

Environment
A clean environment is very important for a peaceful and healthy life. But we, human beings are
polluting our environment.
These problems which are caused due to humans are called ‘Human Disasters’. ‘Pollution’ is one of
them and is increasing day by day. It is a very serious issue which should be known to everyone as
our life depends on environment only. It helps us remain fit if we keep it free of pollution.
There has to be a balance between humans and environment. All the human actions directly or
indirectly leave their impact on the whole atmosphere.

He has things to share, And darkness is all over,
And takes a lot of care. When the stars begin to glitter
My father is an intelligent man, And the moon comes out of its cover,
He likes to say that he can! I think of you, your thoughts are there.

And likes to reach the top. When the sky is colourful as never seen before
My father is savvy, he wears a smart tie, I think of you, in my mind you are the first.

My school is really cool,

Over there I like to eat a bun,
And love to play with toy gun.

They are unlimited so they keep us busy
I love my school because it is really very cool.

Trees: Our Best Friends
Trees are beautiful gifts of nature. Trees are great friends of mankind.
They give us flowers, fruits, timber, bamboo, fuel etc. We can rest
under the cool shade of trees. We get wood from the trees to make
doors, windows, furniture etc. Trees are also a great source of raw materials
for paper, rubber, gums, herbs and medicines. Forests attract rainfall and prevent
soil erosion. They protect us from severe changes in weather. Trees are a part and
parcel of life on earth. All life directly or indirectly owes its existence to them. Trees
absorb carbon-dioxide and release oxygen which we breathe in. They are natural
habitat of many animals and birds. Trees increase the soil fertility. Consequently

I Love You Mom…
A mother is one who always cares,
A mother is one who’s always there.
A mother is one who always prays,
A mother is one who always stays.
When things get rough,
When life gets tough,
When all is just too much,
Don’t be sad, your mother is there.
God’s words she would share
With heavenly light she would shine
I feel so blessed that God sent this mother of mine.

Dreams
Dreams are the bright light,
Which can take me to a height
Dreamland is the place,
That has a lot of grace
Where you can make yourself,
The greatest artist who is yet to be born.
Anything can be done here,
If your imagination is rare.
Time will be gone,
If you are sleeping along.
Sometimes you show me nightmares,
Which always make me scared.
Sometimes you show me my life which pleases me,
You should stick to your dreams.
Because the power of your dreams,
Gives you new hopes and successes.
If you close your eyes and dream,
You can do anything in your mind.
No dream is too big to be achieved, Books are Fun
If you are willing to work, sweat and succeed.
Books are a tank full of knowledge and learning

They are one of the best gifts from God to mankind
They capture one’s heart.

Wish to be A Topper???
Many students live under the illusion that they would just start studying a few weeks
before the exams and score the desired marks. When the time comes, and you sit to
study, you go blank, you hate it, you can not concentrate, you have useless thoughts,
hate your friends who are studying. So what do you do, well, talk to the ones who
always score well. You worry because they’re going ahead of you and invite stress
because of syllabus is too mcuh to cover. Those, who say they study for one night
and score well, are making a fool of you. There are no tricks, schemes, mind games,
but the mere truth of life that everything comes from perseverance. A fact you’re
going to learn years later.
Let’s be honest here nobody’s born with a natural inclination to study. What we
want to do is play games, have fun with friends, look incredibly good and show off to
everybody. You have to understand, to get better in anything, the one only thing you
need to do is practice. Practice in itself includes hard work, patience and persistence.
So be careful about what you’re doing which you may think is unique and cool, isn’t
it? The problem with most of you is not that you don’t plan or want to study, but
whenever you decide, at the last moment, you do something else. In simple terms,
you have too many distractions around you, lack of concentration and goals setting.
Why do you think people who actually cracked the IIT and IIM shut themselves in
a room, only attract those with similar pursuit, and aren’t really active on social
media? Because one word, prioritizing of priorities are what lead a man to glory and
lack of it to the destruction.
Your parents and teachers are right on this one thing; “You need to plan”. For
planning to happen, it requires detailed analysis- isolation at least partial isolation,
research, self-questioning, self-recognition of goals, utilisation of time, scheduling,
routine, building, scanning the sources of time wastage, the capacity to work, and
the work to be done.
We all want the best for ourselves. But the best often has two different definitions.
They are best for you and for your life. Let’s apply this to you; you actually know
the best things for your life. You already have colleges planned in your mind, the
percentage in high school, XII standard, or college, your GPA in college, companies
you want to get into. At any stage, you know what the best thing for your life is,
but you always sabotage it, destroy it for things that you think are best for you at a
particular moment.
Your expectations are the most accurate and credible assessment of your abilities
done by yourself. So, if you are underperforming, instead of accepting the results as
your standards, learn what the mistakes were, where you lacked, and what you need
to focus on. Boost your confidence. Take one step at a time.
The problem is that most of you have accepted that you are an average student.
Think, how you can excel if you’ve already accepted you are mediocre. Reject it. No
one can decide who you are; only you can put yourself on the top, that’s where you
belong.
And last but not the least always stay motivated. Because it’s your life. People can tell
you how and why but at the end of the day, the decision and efforts are yours. Nobody
is going to do anything on your behalf. Only you can. So get up and get going!

Social Media:
Is it Time to Quit or Detox?
Do you spend more than two hours
per day on social media? If you
can’t imagine your life without
social media, that is a sign that
you have fallen a victim to the
evil power and impact of social
networking sites .It also means that
you have experienced one or more
of the negative effects of social
media.
Think when was the last time you spent a full day without
checking your social media accounts? If you just realized
you are addicted to social media, don’t worry, as most
of us are in varying degrees. And it is not necessarily
a reason to go and wipe yourself off all those social
networking platforms. As with everything else, social
media brings both good and bad things into our lives.
At the end of the day, you are the one who decides
whether social media is helpful or harmful for you.

A smile is the expression of joy and

It is also considered as politeness .
A smile can set many things straight,

Friendship
Friends are extremely important for
everyone to live life to the fullest.
A true friendship is something that
can not be expressed in words.
Friendship is being able to laugh
and cry together. Friendship is being
foolish and mad at each other.
True friends are always ready to
protect each other from being hurt
emotionally and physically. It takes
time and patience to build a strong friendship and mutual
trust and respect is its foundation. It is very important to
have somebody with whom you can share your thoughts
freely.

Save Environment
Air, water and forest are our natural resources. We must preserve them. Deforestation affects
rainfall. If there is no rain, we won’t get water. It will become a rare commodity. We should
use water judiciously. Water harvesting is a technique. Repair all the leaking taps, pipelines to
avoid wastage of water. Do not waste water. It is necessary to construct dams and store water
in reservoirs. Ground water also should be protected. At last I would say that we should use our
resources wisely and save it for our future generation.
Arnav – III
Winter's new classmates, Moon, Qibli, and Kinkajou, won't let him
make this dangerous journey alone. They don't seem to understand
that lce Wings, the most superior of all dragon tribes, can fix her
own problems. When their Search leads the dragonets straight into
Queen Scarlet's vicious talons, Winter is grateful to have some help.
But even the bravest dragons can't follow him to the Ice Kingdom,
where he'll have to face the greatest threat of all: his own family.
It was a real thriller. There was not a part in the book were I could
put the book down and do something else. I think if you would
like a nice good book to curl up with by a nice controlled fireplace
and are looking for something interesting, this is the book for you

A suicide note was left, but not in the way anyone would
have expected it. Thirteen stories were recorded onto
tapes by Hannah Baker. These stories, as the tapes told,
were each correlating to a person who had something to
do with her death. Each one was to listen to the stories
and then pass them on to the next person on the tapes.
The last person is to keep them. They are never to be
listened to by anyone other than the thirteen. If however,
the tapes don’t make it around Hannah promises that
someone will release all of the stories to the public. beginning to listen to them. He is completely unaware of
The story picks up with one of the people on the tapes how he could have anything to do with this girls death,
but he listens intently to each of the stories. Each person
has had their own impact on this girl and each story
adds to the humiliation and frustration. From people
who made fun of her to her loves who betrayed her
and even the guidance counselor. Each of these people
had a chance to impact her in a positive or negative
way, but each of these thirteen betrayed her, her trust
and eventually were a part of her decision. Find out the
stories behind each one of these in Thirteen Reasons
Why.

An important fact in view of which CSKM results are to be seen is that the school follows the NIL FAILURE SYSTEM evolved by Founder Chairman Col
P S Satsangi VSM. The school allows each and every child to attempt the Board Exam.
“The school has evolved a system that caters not only to the high performers but also strives to facilitate under achievers. Therefore the result of CSKM
comprehensively stands very high in ranking as compared to others who only concentrate on result-oriented education system that tends to neglect and even
demoralizes low performers. CSKM is, perhaps, the only school that awards its high improvers along with high rankers. Thus, the school aims at academic and
