Finding Voice Through Stories: Deen Shah’s First Steps with My Good School


I applied for the Good School Alliance Internship because my school shared meeting links for the reading sessions that were held on Sundays, and I joined a few of them. I really enjoyed these sessions as they were calm and interactive, and they gave everyone a chance to read and share their thoughts openly. Being part of such discussions helped me feel more confident and interested in reading. A friend also encouraged me to apply for the internship, which motivated me to take this opportunity.

My aim is to develop a better reading habit and improve my communication skills. I also want to learn how these reading sessions are planned and conducted. Through this internship, I hope to actively participate in the sessions, share my reflections, and encourage other students from my school to join and benefit from them.

Thank you. 

Sunday School Reflection

The reading sessions were really interesting and fun for me as a student. The session on The Inner Life of Animals made me realise that animals have feelings and emotions too, which taught me to be more caring and kind towards them. The session on The Whistling Schoolboy and Other Stories was enjoyable and easy to understand, and I could relate to the simple situations and innocent thoughts in the stories. These sessions not only improved my listening skills and imagination but also made me think more deeply about life and the world around me. I really enjoyed these sessions and feel grateful to the Good School Alliance for organising such exciting and meaningful reading experiences.
