Every activity at school  has become more scientific, professional and efficient to find out his or her aptitude and attitude and give them the basic training. And this invites the school for a holistic education programme. Besides the conventional subjects, the school should introduce so called extracurricular activities and co curricular activities.

        There have been many instances where children have fared average or below average in academics subjects but excelled in sports or arts or music. Educators are beginning to realize that creative activities not only help to develop individual potentials and talent, but enhance learning certain academics concepts. They are interesting fun to do and experimential activities such as music,dance and crafts, which  are being included in the regular table, now refered as cocurricular activities. According to age level we teach them a variety of activities such as clapping hands, simple rhythmic movement and miming, vocal,tabla,classical and western dance,music,flute and dramatics, which makes one’s life enriching and more fulfilling and improve self confidence. Through out  the year the school keep busy in engaging the students in cocurricular activities.
 

We also have club activities to pursue one’s hobby and special interest. Various clubs have been organized. The clubs proved the right place to display their various talents and skills. The various clubs are

1.Literary club—literary competition brings out the creative skills in students. They take part in speech, elocution, quiz ,recitation competition and  debate competition which brings the zeal to argue well.

 

                   

2.Art club - Students have various talents which need to be nurtured. To arouse the curiosity of the children and to make use of the creativity that god has given them, The teacher teaches them the craft work like thermocoal cutting, drawing, painting, paper cutting, ceramic,  fabric painting and flower making.

3.Nature’s club The students develop appreciation quality, that is aesthetic development .For that we take students to different places to watch the nature’s beauty, like streams, mountains, lakes, ponds, waterfalls flower gardens and  greeneries, which symbolises  peace. They also learn to appreciate their peer group when it is required which will remove all the negative thoughts and give room to be friendly. 

 

 

Apart from these activities, every week we conduct competitions like Essay writing, Debate, Rangoli competition ,reading the news paper, handwriting, calligraphy, best out of best etc. So creative thinking and sharing ideas are most important apart from educational excellence.

Finally the importance of these co- curricular activities are
1.They enhance the overall development of the child.
