World Book Day (April 23rd)

The year 2015-16 began with the celebration of the ‘World Book Day’ in the Month of April. We always aim at involving our students by doing something new as they enjoy doing unusual things. The students participated in an Inter section competition to design, create and display their school newspaper on their classes’ Bulletin Boards. Their work was splendid as their creative ability was showcased to one and all. The junior wing marked this event by decorating their class doors as their favourite book cover.

International School Library Month (October)

International School Library Month has become an annual library event and is celebrated enthusiastically in the month of October. Our school became a part of ‘International Bookmark Exchange Project’ in which our students made colorful bookmarks giving information on our country covering various facts. This year we collaborated with ‘McAuliffee Elementary, USA’, ‘Szegedi Gregor Joseph Elementary School, Hungary’ and ‘Lam Tin Methodist Primary School, Hongkong’. The students also shared letters and Diwali greeting cards with their partner schools.
