“There are two types of education that teaches us how to make a living and how to live”.

Every activity in school life plays a significant role in development of students. Among them, CCA is a compulsory activity which is important for every student to participate. It is designed and balanced with academic curriculum, so that every student gets to learn beyond subjects.

It helps in overall development of a child, gives relief from the monotonous classroom reading and writing and sets a platform to secure one’s future, both professionally and socially. Their participation in various CCA like games, debates, skit, dance, drama, karate develops analytical skills, team spirit and leadership qualities.

Student’s participation in various cultural programmes helps them in socializing, self-identification and self-assessment.

We have taken initiative to introduce various activities. Competitions have been conducted in colouring and drawing, story narration, declamation (speech of famous personalities) poem recitation, inter house Kannada quiz competition, subject wise quiz competition, (Handwriting) calligraphy competition, Rangoli Competition, Kannada folk song competition, clay modeling etc. It has inculcated in them a sense of belongingness and responsibility. Children prepare their own craftwork, drawing, clay modelling and get appreciated in the assembly. These activities have developed a keen interest in the students to learn more and exhibit their talent. There is an equal opportunity for every child to showcase his/her inherent talent.

The school also celebrates Annual Day and Sports Day to enhance their talent and skills respectively. Therefore, we give equal importance to both curricular and co-curricular activities. The best aspect of co-curricular activity at school is that they are part of academics and makes teaching and learning experience exciting, for both students and teachers. Therefore, co-curricular activities along with academics is essential for every student.
