Extra-curricular Activities Programme:
These activities extend the opportunities of learning further. Valuable learning takes place, both in and out of the lessons.
Students are taught to recognize the worth of different cultures, nations, religions and life-styles through a curriculum which promotes respect for universal human rights.
Every day, a 40-minute session includes a range of Sporting Activities, Dance, Music, Art, Dramatics and Ballet, taught by the specialist teachers and the visiting faculty.
As students progress through their school years, these activities promote opportunities and confidence to enter into school competitions. These activities are designed to increase their Communication, Leadership, Initiative and Organizational Skills.
As far as possible, we arrange for field trips and educational tours for the students so that they may learn under actual conditions. In this connection we state that trips outside the country are not ruled out.
In the pre-primary and lower primary sections the project method of learning is promoted and various projects are undertaken with a view to presenting the cultural aspects of the various countries of the worlds, as they exist there.
Every attempt is made to inculcate in the children a sense of Internationalism through dramatization, music, dance and other means.
Another programme is our twinning programme by which we tie ourselves up with a school or schools in the UK or rest of the world so that there is ample scope for cultural exchange, and exchange of ideas.
