Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.
– Benjamin Franklin

Performing Arts: Dance And Music Rooms
“The world is a complicated place, and there’s a lot of division between people. The performing arts tend to unify people in a way nothing else does.” – David Rubenstein
It has been proven that people involved in performing arts are able to engage the mind, emotions, and body in ways that allow them to properly flow through real-life situations with empathy, understanding, emotional intelligence, and confidence, as well as to communicate with their varying counterparts. It is necessary to get children involved in performing arts at an early stage to equip them with all the necessary skills to navigate through life.

- The students are trained in various dance forms such as Bharatanatyam, Kathak, Folk and Freestyle.

Rain Water Harvesting
‘Don’t forget to save the rain, let’s prevent tomorrow’s pain.’ – Anonymous
The school has always been at the forefront of contributing towards saving the environment. With an aim to replenish the depleting ground water level, the school has set up a water harvesting plant in the school premises.
Water Conservation – protecting our precious natural resource
Rainwater harvesting systems are a great way of educating children about the benefits of the conservation of our natural resources. They save money by not wasting water and help to encourage an environmentally responsible attitude in the next generation. With low energy pumps and controls, there are no negatives to using a rainwater system in a school. It also ensures that rainwater is effectively used. It has resulted in huge savings in water bills and significantly contributing to the reduction of rainwater run-off.
Activity Room
I read, I forget, I discuss, I remember, I do, I inculcate.
Activity room is to engage the kids by providing them an environment that induces joy, happiness and creativity, introducing children to fundamental learning through the medium that is engaging, less straining and more recreational in nature.
The interior of this room is designed keeping the little ones in mind. Their inquisitive and eager eyes get the feel of things fresh and attractive. Here we have games, arts/crafts and story sacks. We feel it’s very important for children to experience small group work as well as individual and large group work, so this quiet extension gives the children every opportunity. It also serves as a Resource Room for teachers as it is equipped with books, manuals and journals on Early Childhood Care and Education. It also has a large collection of story books for children which includes colourful story books like Panchtantra, Fairy Tales, Pop Up Books and Picture Books.
Solar Panels
The school has always been at the forefront of taking initiatives for conservation of the environment. It is indeed a unique milestone in the history of the school to earn the distinction of becoming the first ever school in Central Delhi to have a fully sufficient Solar Plant. Our 70 kwp Roof Top Solar Power Project, is designed to generate 84,000 units of electricity per year. With this initiative, we have reduced our carbon footprints, thereby contributing our might to conserve Mother Earth.
