A year ago, our students came out with the first E-magazine “Lumos” of Indian School
Sohar. The second edition “Profectus” is now a click away. This E-magazine is a great
way to communicate and has provided a stage to our students to bring out their creative
talent and imagination.

The year gone by has been unprecedented in global history. The entire world was
brought to a standstill by an invisible virus. Life imposes things on you, but you still have
the choice of how you are going to live through this. What has it been like at Indian
School Sohar during this last year? Well, I can positively and enthusiastically say that we
overcame the challenges and grabbed the opportunities that came our way.

Our students have aptly named the magazine “Profectus” meaning progress. Progress is
a forward or onward movement towards a goal. “If you can't fly then run if you can't run
then walk if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving
forward.”
― Martin Luther King Jr.
A little progress every day adds up to big results.

This magazine is a good example of instilling in the students 4Cs of 21st-century skills
Critical Thinking, Communication, Collaboration, and Creativity. The young and
innovative editorial board this year moved a step further and made Profectus dynamic,
provided useful links to motivate readers to explore
further.

Covid has brought a profound change in the educational landscape therefore
continuous upskilling and reskilling is important. Education has to emerge
stronger than before. Team ISS is determined, dedicated and devoted to nurturing
young minds.

I thank and acknowledge the support of the School Managing Committee,
staff, parents and students. My special appreciation for the students’ editorial board
members.

TOGETHER WE WILL BUILD BACK BETTER!
