ISB Celebrates Commerce Festival Nishka

The Indian School Bahrain (ISB) celebrated Nishka-2025 with great enthusiasm and spirited participation at its Isa Town campus on Wednesday. The annual event featured an array of activities designed to highlight the inherent talents, creativity, and intellectual strengths of students from the Commerce and Humanities streams.

The ceremony commenced with the lighting of the ceremonial lamp by Head Boy Joel George Jogi in the presence of Prefect Khulood Yusuf Hasan Al Hawaj, Staff Representative Parvathi Devadas, Head Teacher Annly Joseph, Head Teacher Activities Sreekala R, Heads of Departments Biju Vasudevan(Commerce), Rajesh Nair (Humanities) and members of the faculty.

Nishka, a platform that blends innovation with academic enrichment, provided a vibrant space for students of classes 11 and 12 to express their ideas through artistic, analytical, and practical tasks. Among the major events conducted was the Digital Display Board competition. Students of Class 11 prepared displays on the theme ‘Vanishing Values: Humanity in the Age of Materialism’, while Class 12 students presented work on ‘India’s Journey Towards a Cashless Economy’. Both themes allowed students to reflect on contemporary social and economic issues, encouraging creativity, critical thought, and visual communication skills.The HoDs along with their respective teams, meticulously coordinated the day’s programme, ensuring smooth execution of every event.
