Holiday Homework – Class II2020 – 2021

DELHI PUBLIC SCHOOLVasant Kunj, New Delhi

Dear parents,

We hope all of you are safe and taking good care of yourself during these difficult times.

With a view to make the forthcoming holiday season an enjoyable and memorable experience, we have put together a few activities, which include word puzzles, fun worksheets, story/poem /paragraph writing, etc. We hope that it will help children bring out their latent creativity and spend their leisure time fruitfully.

We would also like to suggest that the children may be encouraged to attempt and complete the work on their own. You may extend assistance and guidance in their efforts, wherever deem necessary.

With best wishes
