Circular for Summer Vacation “Days of fun, now not in a burn, summer holidays are a

Pleasure and Children’s treasure.”

Respected Parents

Namaskar / Sat Shri Akal

With the summer temperature soaring high, children as well as their

parents look forward to vacation time when they can relax from the scorching heat,

visit family relatives and friends, travel to explore and basically chill out enjoying

those little pleasures of life which get left behind during the busy school routines.

This year Summer Break is scheduled from 16h June, 2018 to 10th July, 2018

for Classes 8th, 10th, & 10+1. The School will re- open on 11th July, 2018 (Wednesday).

To ensure that the children have a constructive vacation, some

Assignments and Projects are planned which will keep them active and observant

during holidays. These projects can easily be done by the children and you can assist

only when required.

During Holidays-

a) Motivate your ward to interact with knowledgeable books because it not only enhances the knowledge acquired but also develops the vocabulary, language

skills and improves spellings.

b) Practice common English daily routine sentences with your children to enhance their spoken ability and fluency as Communication skills play a pivotal role in

grooming the overall personality of the children.

c) Be observant while your ward watches TV and use Mobile Phones or Internet. Fix up a time table for your ward to organize his/ her daily routine like watching

television, playing with friends, studying etc.

d) Encourage your child to go out for the early morning walk and in the evening to play outdoors.

e) Spare your time to play board games with your children i.e. Chess, Ludo, Carrom etc.

f) Carry on with the practice of wishing to elders by joining hands and touching feet.

g) All family members must try to take at least two meals together daily.

h) Make your child responsible by assigning some of the household responsibilities to him/ her like watering plants, arranging the dining table, organizing his/ her

room and cupboards, fill the empty water bottles and put them in refrigerator.

i) Avoid giving chocolates, jellies, kurkures, chips, soft drinks as they may lead to health problems.

Above mentioned guidelines will help your child to become a smart and an active learner.
