Students' Training

Leader In Me (LIM)

“What you are doing today is getting you closer to where you want to be tomorrow”.

Our school has introduced a new program “Leader In Me,” which is integrated into our curriculum, every day. It is not a “Program” it is a philosophy of how to live life. It is Franklin Covey’s whole-school transformation process. It teaches 21st-century leadership and life skills to students and creates a culture of empowerment based on the idea that every child can be a leader. Our teachers are trained every month on it and we also have a light house team. Stephen Covey’s 7 habits ‘Leader In Me program’ was conducted for our school drivers, conductors, and caretakers by the lighthouse team. It was such a great pleasure in motivating them to become effective people.

For any learner to become all-round, they ought to be equipped with a variety of skills.

And again each stall set up during this year has contributed towards charity from their profit. Our school empowers students with skills to innovate and employ themselves.

Eco Club

We all know that we are part of the environment we live in. And the solution to many environmental problems lie in our attitude towards environment. Awareness to keep our surroundings clean or the realization to conserve natural resources by re-using and recycling wherever possible, they all are attitudinal. But changing the attitudes of 100 crore people is not going to happen overnight. The best way to attempt to bring about a change in the attitudes in the society is through children. They are impressionable and our future.
