Himanshu Srivastava (X Strawberries) and Anirudh Yadav (IX Raspberries) were adjudged under top 10 and will be awarded and acknowledged for the same. Students\u2019 enthusiasm got an impetus when they received medals on completion of \u2018Happy Run\u2019. The school was acknowledged by Mr. Rahul Bose for being part of such pertinent cause. He addressed the students to not to have junk food on regular basis. It was a great source of inspiration for the students\u2019 community present there, when he declared that he had never ever had wafers in his life and not consumed any aerated drink from past 10 years. Sri Venkateshwarites also pledged to avoid the consumption of junk food. It was a  great learning experience for the gen next.<\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;If we&#8217;re not willing to settle for junk living, we certainly shouldn&#8217;t settle for junk food.&#8221; ~ Sally Edwards The morning breeze of October 14, 2012 acted as a catalyst for Sri Venkateshwarites as Sri Venkateshwar International School was a willing participant in the Delhi Quaterathon.
