Interact is a Rotary-sponsored service club that gives young people, who want to connect with others in their community or school, an opportunity to participate in fun and meaningful service projects while developing leadership skills and meeting new friends. They bring together young people of ages 12-18. The basic principle of the Rotary Interact is to help others. Their motto is “service above self”. Through service activities, the youngsters learn the importance of developing leadership skills and personal integrity, demonstrating helpfulness and respect for others, and advancing international understanding and goodwill. While Interact clubs receive guidance from individual Rotary clubs, they govern and support themselves.
Three students represented our school at a meeting held at Asan Memorial Senior Secondary School, Greams Road, on August 6th . They were happy that the session was very interactive and their views were also heard. After a brief introduction to all new entrants, a skeleton sketch of the club was given and their purpose explained. The students were guided as to what activities can be done at school, how they can be performed to provide maximum results, and what designates the smooth running of any project and what enables a team to work efficiently. Personal integrity was also given importance.
The students came back with great enthusiasm and had shared all the information with fellow students and teachers. The club has now been formed with the hope of full cooperation from all concerned, and ideas for various local community projects.

As the organization is known for its work in cleaning and scientific restoration of lakes in India, the students were taken on a lake tour to broaden their knowledge.
