News Wiz - 2017



The year 2017 marked the first anniversary of demonetization, the raging controversies of GST, the floods in the southern states and the rise in pollution levels in Delhi in the face of the cracker ban in the National Capital. All these news items garnered its own share of brickbats but ploughing through the news related questionnaires were the quizzing duo of SJBHS, Hayden D’Souza and Rithwik Saldanha of Std 11.

Challenged with the news snippets by the quiz master Rajdeep Sardesai, the India Today NEWS WIZ 2017 quiz was a battle for supremacy, as a multitude of teams from premier schools in India participated in the brain- storming battle. The SJBHS pair showed tenacity, perseverance and single minded determination when confronted with adversity. The quarter finals and the semis saw them mastering the game while slowly inching their way towards the finals. It was down to the wire, as three teams competed for the ‘News Wiz 2017’ trophy.

The Josephites came third in the prestigious All-India quiz bringing glory to the school and honour to their parents while being bestowed with a surfeit of adulation and admiration from the rest of the Josephite family!
