Kanishka Aditya Chaudhary
Student (Class 12)
I joined Sahyadri School in Grade 11.
I love being in nature. I enjoy dancing and playing badminton, and over the years I have also developed an interest in hosting and anchoring events. During my time at Sahyadri, I have been part of the Newsletter Committee, Culture Committee, and Tuck Shop Committee. I was also one of the editors of Ninad (2025–26) and a member of the Assembly Team. I joined the Research Club in Grade 11 as well. Along with my batchmates, I hosted the farewell for our seniors in Grade 11. As a member of the Culture Committee, I had the opportunity to compere and anchor multiple assemblies. I also interviewed several alumni and artists who visited Sahyadri. These experiences have helped me grow more confident and responsible and have made my journey at Sahyadri truly memorable.
I was always an introverted kid. That is not a bad thing, but I really wanted to step out of my comfort zone. I wanted to experience life in a boarding school, learn how to handle different situations independently, and, most importantly, get to know myself. That is why I came to Sahyadri, and it has not let me down. This place has my heart. Although I have spent only two years here, they have truly been the best. I have learned so much about myself that I never realised I needed to learn. I have formed unique bonds and meaningful relationships with my peers and teachers. Every responsibility I took on taught me something new and gave me the courage and confidence to take on the next one. Sahyadri helped me grow in ways I never imagined: it boosted my confidence, taught me to speak my mind, and much more. It is the little things that have made Sahyadri so special to me. Our mornings began with Geet Gunjan, which always filled me with gratitude. We had classes on the turf, spent evenings playing frisbee with my batchmates, enjoyed dorm cookouts and hikes, and made countless other memories. Every moment added something unforgettable to my journey here. I love the campus. I have always loved being in nature, and Sahyadri made me fall in love with it even more. Every corner of the campus has its own vibrant energy and unique charm. At the end of it all, I realise that I did not just spend two years at Sahyadri—I grew here. This place gave me experiences I will cherish forever, people I will always be grateful for, and a version of myself I am proud to become.
