Champak
|November First 2016
The Sports Minister of Green Meadows, Ellie, the elephant often conducted a variety of competitions. He encouraged everyone to take part in various sports and often held workshops and courses for them.
One evening, Ellie called for a meeting with all animals of the forest. At the meeting, he asked them, “I was wondering whether we should conduct a wrestling competition in our forest. We have never had a competition before but I have seen children training in the school. What do you all think?”
Riko, the raccoon said, “That’s a great idea! I think we should have adults competing with each other as well.”
Eeko, the eagle said, “Yes! Just like how we had a flying competition last month, we should have a competition for other animals. And it is true, we have never had a wrestling competition before.”
Ellie said, “Great! As all of you have agreed, we will have a wrestling competition by the end of this month. We can have different categories for different age groups as well.”
So, it was announced throughout the forest that there will be a wrestling competition. Many animals registered their name and began to practice for the competition.

GRAVE MISTAKES
“Here’s your new school,” Dad said as he pulled over at the gate of Silver Pines School. Courtesy of his dad’s frequent job transfers, Omi is always the new student. This was his fourth school in the last eight years. Standing at the gates of his new school, clutching his bag, he tried not to look nervous. His family had just moved to the town a week ago, and everything still smelled new—new books, new uniform, new trouble.
