Explanation:
My essay on a Greek mythical character is about the infamous Zeus. Zeus is the god of the sky, lightning and the thunder in Ancient Greek religion and legends, and ruler of all the gods on Mount Olympus. Zeus is the sixth child of Kronos and Rhea, king and queen of the Titans. Zeus is featured in many other Greek tales, however, they’re very different from one another. In most traditions, he is married to Hera, by whom he is usually said to have fathered Ares, Hebe, and Hephaestus. At the oracle of Dodona, his consort was said to be Dionee, by whom the Iliad states that he fathered Aphrodite. Zeus was also infamous for his erotic escapades. He’s also quite famous with the goddesses, Zeus had made love to one of the Pleiades, Maia, who gave birth to the tricky messenger of the gods, Hermes. Before Zeus was god of gods, his father, Cronus was the god of all gods until he was overthrown by Zeus. Zeus’s sons were Ares, the god of war, Hebe, the goddess of youth, and Hephaestus, the god of fire. Hephaestus limped whenever he walked, on some accounts it was because he was born lame so his mother, Hera, threw him off the side of Mount Olympus. According to others he acquired the limp because he interceded in a fight between Zeus and Hera, and Zeus took him by the foot and threw him from Olympus to the earth far below. In some stories Zeus was overthrown by Typhon, a gigantic son of Gaia, the Earth, and Tartarus. Typhon was born to avenge the Titans and depose the Olympians. Though some believe Zeus was undoubtably the victor.
Trip to Sundarban

Class X A
The Educational trip to Sundarban on April 17th has been successfully completed. There were a total of hundred students accompanied by three teachers. A State Transport Bus was hired to take us to a place called Dhaniakhali and back. At Dhaniakhali we boarded a ferry that showed us around the creeks and mangrove forests of the great ecological site.
The learning experience from the trip was not much, though there was a lot of fun and entertainment. The selection of the time of the trip was ill suited. Most of the wild animals were deep inside the jungles and could not be sited.
It being the time of the Bengali New Year, there was a lot of crowd and this frightened even the crocodiles away. Usually one gets to sight the crocodiles most easily. Thus I don't think we really learned very much.
We met a lot of local people and interacted with them. We asked them about the animals and their habitat. The people we met were really helpful.
We had to do a lot of running around at Dhaniakhali . None of us were aware of the place. Booking a ferry, negotiating the charges, arranging lunch was really hectic. I wish we hadn't had to do so many things.
On the whole the trip was good value! We love the experience. Since I had just finished reading Amitabh Ghosh's 'The Hungry Tide' the previous week, I found the trip even more interesting.
I hope we learn from our experiences and in the next trip we implement the things we have learnt.
