PROJECTS
“Learning by doing” is the buzzword of today’s learners. Hence subject enrichment activities are designed to motivate the learners to do integrated projects which help them to connect the various subjects to real life applications.
FIELD TRIPS
LIFE SKILLS
a) Self-defence
“Self-defense is not only our right; it is our duty”

Being able to protect oneself in all situations is a confidence booster as much as it is a reassurance. A reassurance that can only be gained through any form of self defense classes. Our Children of all grades are trained in atleast one form of martial arts to equip them to face the dark challenges that may lurk around any corner . Currently Karate is being taught by expert trainers.
b) Interpersonal communication skills
“The art of communication is the language of leadership”
