CLUBS AND ACTIVITIES INDOOR AND OUTDOOR
Co-curricular activities are the components that mirror non-academic curriculum and facilitate in the development of various domains of mind and personality such as intellectual, emotional, social, moral and aesthetic development. Creativity, enthusiasm, and positive thinking are some of the facets as well as outcomes of personality development. Co-curricular activities refer to learning experiences related to sports and culture that complement, in some way, what students are learning in school.
We endorse the magic of sports to create a generation of champions in real life equipped with life skills. On the one hand where the younger ones find their place in the sandpit, toy houses or play decks, all students from Class V onwards are encouraged to participate in sporting events. Besides nurturing their athletic talents, sports and games, we inculcate a spirit of healthy competition and teamwork in students. Qualified trainers and experienced coaches supervise and monitor the progress of every child, to ensure that they learn, and excel at a wide range of indoor and outdoor activities apart from athletics.

In our school we emphasise health and physical education as a comprehensive approach through disciplining of mind and body with yoga and martial arts. Both are vital as art of living and self defence. Field trips make learning and fun a great combination. Field trips take book learning from the classroom and extend it to life. To provide an educational experience that students can never get in the classrooms, excursions are a mandatory part of the co-curricular realm of school education. Various sports, literary and cultural competitions/events and excursions that provide students with the steadfastness and grit to overcome challenges offered by life shall be informed from time to time on a quarterly basis through the school newsletters/circulars.
