Feb, 11: Today’s classrooms are no longer confined to textbooks and chalkboards, they are hubs of high-tech innovation where students are actively building the future. This evolution was on full display at the Meena Bhujbal School of Excellence during the prestigious World Skill Challenge 2025. In a stellar showcase of talent, Gopi Birla Memorial School students Aarav Gupta and Aaliya Gupta of Class 6 clinched the 2nd Prize in Plane Building Aeromodelling, proving that the next generation is more than ready to lead in the age of technology.
The competition, held in collaboration with Aerobay, brought together 40 teams and over 100 students from 11 schools to compete in 13 cutting-edge categories. From Robotics and Design Thinking to E-Sports and Battle Bots, the event highlighted how modern students are mastering complex skills that were once reserved for professionals. The atmosphere was charged with creativity as young minds navigated the technicalities of Aeromodelling, including drone technology and rocket launching, demonstrating a level of technical fluency that defines today’s generation.
The event’s prestige was further elevated by the presence of Mr. Vijayraj Madhukar Pawar, a veteran of the Indian Air Force with two decades of expertise in aerospace technology. Currently with Gravity Flying India, Mr. Pawar’s mentorship served as a bridge between today’s aspiring students and the real-world industries they are destined to transform. His participation underscored the event’s role in identifying and nurturing the technological leaders of tomorrow.
Speaking on this milestone, Suchita Malakar, Principal, Gopi Birla Memorial School said,
“We are incredibly proud of Aarav Gupta and Aaliya Gupta for their outstanding performance at the World Skill Challenge 2025. This milestone is not just a win for our students, but a celebration of hands-on STEM learning. We look forward to cheering them on as they represent us at the National Round in Delhi.”
As Aarav Gupta and Aaliya Gupta prepare to take flight on the national stage in Delhi, the entire school community celebrates this milestone, confident that their success is only the beginning of a journey toward shaping the leaders of tomorrow.
