Life at school

Festivals and Sports

Mind and movement belong to the same unity — and every festival is celebrated together.

Sports

The integration of sports into the curriculum has helped each child develop as a complete human being, because mind and movement are a complete cycle belonging to the same unity. Intelligence is enhanced by movement.

Movement education develops body awareness, a sense of rhythm, and physical and communication skills, and fine motor skills and prehensile co-ordination are enhanced alongside. Yoga, Odissi, Chhau, Kalaripayattu, Kathak, Pilates and jazz are some of the disciplines introduced — more on these on the Culture page.

Festivals

the magic years is a world where all festivals are celebrated with great joy. Special day activities stimulate a child’s interest, appeal to his senses, offer active participation, and encourage exploration and discovery. Traditional foods, artwork and performances that have meaning to the occasion are included, and the child learns to respect the traditions of others.
