Our Values
‘Tradition does not mean to look after the ashes but to keep the flame alive’. Jean Jaures
Honesty, spirituality, commitment, vitality, perseverance and excellence are few values that we inculcate into each and every student. For us, education goes way beyond academic excellence. We encourage our students to gather knowledge, pursue their goals and aspirations and at the same time nurture their creativity and develop their individual faculties. We are firmly committed to embracing students from diverse backgrounds, cultures and religions.
Our Conclave
The School Morning Assembly is the most important part of the school curriculum and nurtures positive school ethos and a sense of school community. It is conducted by the House on duty and presided over by the Principal/Headmistress. Prayers, national songs, news events, Thought for the Day and a talk by a teacher are highlights of the assembly. It also highlights the agenda and activities of the four Houses, namely Aravalli, Meghalaya, Nilgiri and Shiwalik.
Special Assemblies
Special assemblies are organized at Pre-primary, Primary and Senior levels to celebrate special days and festivals. The school curriculum aims at instilling national pride and secular beliefs amongst students through such celebrations and activities like Holi, Guru Purab, Dusssehra, Diwali, Id, Environment Day, Children’s Day, Teachers Day, Sadbhavana Diwas, National Integration Day.
