School life

Learning beyond the classroom

Academics, sports, activities, celebrations, competitions and a place in the life of the town.

Sports and outdoors

More than two acres to run on

The school has more than two acres of open playground where students play, practise and take part in outdoor activities — games periods, drill, sports day and the daily business of being a child outdoors.

Activities

What happens through the year

Scouts and Guides

Students take part in Bharat Scouts and Bharat Guides. Through these activities children learn discipline, teamwork, service and responsibility — and they wear the uniform with real pride.

Science exhibitions

Students build working models and present their ideas at science exhibitions. These encourage children to observe, experiment, solve problems and explain what they have created to someone else.

Competitions

Drawing, essay writing, elocution, Olympiads and other competitions at district level and above. These build confidence and teach children how to perform outside the safety of their own classroom.

Celebrations and culture

Annual Day, Independence Day, Republic Day, fancy dress, festival celebrations and graduation ceremonies for the youngest children — occasions the whole school prepares for together.

Community participation

Part of a wider place

Students take part in rallies and community activities on causes such as protecting the girl child, planting trees and keeping the surroundings clean.

These experiences help children understand something that is hard to teach from a book: that they belong to a community wider than their family and their classroom, and that it has some claim on them.
