 ROTARY AND AKHAND
The Interact Club of Lotus Valley International School, Noida launched Akhand (2021) last year
and held the first-ever Interact Club Competition; a great success from beginning to end.

This year, we aim to carry forth this legacy and take it to the next level by increasing its reach and
opening it to many more schools.

Hence, with great pride, we present to you:

Akhand 2.0 — LVISN Interact Club's International Inter-District Interact Competition.

The Interact Club of Lotus Valley International School, Noida considers itself a stronghold of
mental fortitude. Under the attack of ignorance, it stays standing, elevating ingenuity and free
thinking. Following on the same lines, the word Akhand itself means stronghold, and our
competition hopes to act as a platform for you to flex your creative muscles and further
strengthen your own bases.

Each event has been designed to incorporate the usage of as many skills as possible to aid
participants in honing their talents further. The topics have been carefully chosen and are related
to Rotary and its causes, so as to support it in its initiative to make the world a better place.
