Life-skills training has become inevitable for the holistic development of children leading them towards happy and successful lives filled with beautiful and meaningful experiences.
Our School has taken up life-skills training for students in utmost sincerity. Multiple initiatives and a number of activities have been taken up on both offline and online platforms. Every year, School involves students in a variety of programmes such as Self-Discovery Week, You Talk I Listen, Citizenship, and so on. Life-skills are also infused into the daily teaching-learning experiences in the form of the Sanskara Syllabus.
You Talk I Listen is a programme launched by School where, senior students take on the roles of peer mentors. Students at large reach out to these peer mentors to share problems or the challenges they face at school or at home. The programme helps students to learn open communication and thereby build coping mechanisms to manage stress and regulate their emotions.
Building self-awareness and self-esteem are fundamental components of life-skills training. This is addressed by the Self-Discovery Week conducted at School, wherein the students complete various activities in each discipline activating their self-discovery.
Group counselling and various life-skills workshops are also undertaken at School. Several areas are covered in such sessions such as managing anger, emotional intelligence, the art of forgiveness, counteracting anxiety provoking thoughts, ways to overcome peer pressure, developing non-verbal communication, understanding the impact of external validation on our emotional well-being and many more.
Every year School also organises a Psychology exhibition. This year the students prepared a presentation on the different life skills such as - managing examination stress and anxiety, developing self-love, and bridging the communication gap between parents and adolescents. It targeted many skills such as managing stress, time-management, intrapersonal and interpersonal skills.
School also lays special focus on the Sanskara Syllabus which is embedded in the daily learning experiences of students at School. Teaching to respect parents, teachers and all creations of nature, helps to develop empathy, gratitude, and inter-personal communication among the students.
On similar grounds, our Schools Citizenship Programme is directly linked to life-skills training, spanning personality development, developing multiple skills, developing a positive attitude and so on.
These activities are designed to increase student engagement, create curiosity and interest to enable students to learn the various life skills by relating to their personal experiences.
