We strive to achieve excellence in learning both within and beyond the classroom through these best practices which we have developed in our school.
Circle Time with the Chairman is time for students to voice and share their concerns on wide ranging topics. Chosen by students, the topics range from Abraham Lincoln and Democracy to intolerance, gender bias and cleanliness in the public domain.

CHARIMAN INTERACTING WITH STUDENTS

In our Summer Internship programmme senior students get an opportunity to work with an industry, NGO etc to help them become contributive citizens.

NUKKAD NATAK TO SPREAD AWARENESS ON GENDER SENSITISATION

The new term beginning in April sees children being regaled with tales of Lord Mahavira and Buddha, Good Friday and Id interwoven with Sanskaras of ahimsa and non-violence, thus laying the foundation for making our country a role model for multicultural democracy. Baisakhi is also celebrated, by turn, as it is observed in different parts of India – Bihu in Assam, Ugadi in Andhra Pradesh and so on.

July sees the students singing raag Malhaar in an Inter-school Music & Dance Competition which invokes the rain god and was originally started to celebrate the school’s own water harvesting project.

GRAM ANUBHAV AT ECO PARK

Parents, Grandparents and other members of the family are regularly invited to school functions. Independence Day and Raksha Bandhan are celebrated together. The hoisting of our national flag is accompanied by a Science Exhibition and the tying of rakhis not only by the girls to the boys but also the other way round.

IN VENICE ON A TRIP TO EUROPE

This is because we believe that both technological progress and an equal acceptance of the girl child are essential pre-requisites for an independent India. The rakhis made in the three colours of our national flag symbolize not merely national harmony but also convey gender equality.By tying rakhi to each other, we are also recalling a piece of our history which was the early years of our independence struggle. Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore used this custom of rakhi tying to unite people of this country to protest against Lord Curzon’s partition of Bengal in 1905.

Our annual inter-school competitions/workshops have become a regular feature on the Delhi School circuit and draw in best of schools to our doors.
