Cookery club


Cooking techniques and ingredients vary widely across the world from grilling food over an open fire to using electricity and baking in various types of ovens, reflecting unique environmental, economic, and cultural traditions and trends. The ways or types of cooking also depend on the skill and type of training an individual chef possesses.

Cooking food follows a pattern which commences with the purchasing and selection of materials, their handling, processing and the ultimate presentation of dishes. There are many methods of cooking, most of which have been known since time immemorial. These include baking, roasting, frying, grilling, barbecuing, smoking, boiling, steaming and braising. A more recent innovation is microwaving.

At WBS, it is our endeavor to make students learn all life skills and hence, we have a Cookery Club as part of our extra-curricular activities. The WBS Cookery Club is in session once a week and the members — our little chefs —are baptized into the world of cooking as we teach them the basic culinary etiquettes. They are familiarized with various culinary tools and appliances as also the distinct styles of cooking.

Film appreciation club


What happens in and around in the society is just a manifestation of what happens inside the world of individual human beings. We all have our moments of joy and sorrow and we wish to share those with our near and dear ones and we always try to search for other people who share the similar kind of emotional upheaval that we go through at times.

Films provide a very powerful medium where we can see a reflection of our own selves, our own happiness and predicament. WBS has such a platform in the form of Film Appreciation Club mainly for senior students. Every Saturday the group members meet and become part of a movie that is screened. They don’t just watch movies but do critical analysis of different aspects of the movie. Usually English and local movies are screened but at times some regional movies also find slots in the club activity. The core value that the club follows is “Enlightenment over entertainment”.
