Dear Children,

With the summer temperature soaring high, we eagerly look forward to the exciting vacation time when we can relax
and spend quality time with our family, friends and excursions. As you know Covid is again in active mode so please take
all necessary precautions suggested by the government.
Try to develop new skills that will enhance your knowledge and will be lessons for a lifetime. It will be great if you keep
some semblance of academics alive in the fun.
Guidelines for students:

1. Ensure timely submission of the given assignment after the school reopens. Remember, a well-presented holiday
homework fetches you accolades.

2. Revise all the topics which have been taught by your subject teachers in the new session.
3. Books are companions of lifetime. Read good books, novels, short stories, travelogues etc. During your summer
holidays.
4. Take up an activity at home that is joyful and excites you like sketching, painting, learning any musical instrument,
gardening etc.
Guidelines for the parents:

1. Communication skills play a pivotal role in grooming the holistic personality of the children. Please converse with your
children preferably in English to acquaint them with the language skills.
2. Please spend quality time with your children engaging them in activities based on enhancing their powers of
observation, imagination and creativity.
3. Please sensitize your child about the rich culture and heritage by watching different informative channels, videos or
