Deprived of classes in the company of friends, students were too excited to be returning to school.

The first day of the session is a special day for every child. They were all brimming with joy and geared up for starting a new session in a brick-and-mortar scenario which means physical classes. It is a sigh of relief for all the parents and the educators, as for kids, it is important to grow, play and enjoy with their peers in a congenial environment provided at school. We conducted many attractive activities for the new session and the students were all engrossed in these activities, and we knew this would motivate the students to attend school regularly. Covid protocols including sanitization, and wearing masks are strictly followed. All the classrooms will be sanitized regularly. We are looking forward to having classes like in the pre-Covid time.

PRESIDIANS ENHANCE THEIR KNOWLEDGE ABOUT COMMUNITY HELPERS

04-03-2022
Community helpers day is a wonderful way to broaden the child's horizon and help them learn about the world beyond home - their community. A community is a group of people who share services, buildings and laws. This topic is important as it brings home to children for a lot of reasons such as safety, thoughtfulness, and understanding the way the world works. It teaches them to address politely the people in our neighbourhood, mingles with them by asking his or her name, and try to show them that they should feel safe and that these people take care of us. With these objectives to be achieved, Community helpers day was organized for grade prep students. They were dressed up as Doctors, Nurse, Soldiers, Greengrocer, farmers, and Teachers.
