Dear Parents

The most cherished time of the session is on its way to bring smile on children’s face. Let’s welcome to the

treasured and rejuvenating summer break.

The concept of summer vacation has transformed the holiday period into a learning and fun-filled time for

children. It provides a break from the academic schedule and a chance to adopt an innovative skill. There is

plethora of options to choose from dance, art and craft to gardening, swimming, skating or karate classes;

the choice is all yours. The summer break keeps the schedule a bit relaxing but it needs to be utilized

judiciously. The scholastic and integrated, creative school activities and projects are designed to help in the

holistic development of the child. The novel ideas to accomplish the task will certainly broaden their

outlook.

The children should be guided to follow time schedule to get the optimum utility of summer break. They

need to be given utmost care and protection at home. The quality time spent with kids will inculcate family

ethics and affection in them. Instruct the child to be more vigilant while spending time in outdoor activities.

Refrain from talking with the strangers and sharing personal details with them. Guide the children to adopt

healthy eating habits. Lots of fresh fruits, juice and liquids will ward off the heating effect of the season.

Take out some time for prayer, yoga and meditation as it is required for the purification of body and mind.

The balance of accomplishing academic assignment and nurturing an innovative skill will surely make this

summer vacation a memorable time for the children. The quality time and the tips to ensure the holistic

personality development should be a constant parental concern as these moments make an indelible imprint

on child’s mind and soul.

May God protect my children from every evil and bless them with sound health, bundle of joyful moments.

I hope to see them ever smiling after summer break.

Blessings and regards!

Dear Students

Two months of the new academic year have already passed and we are looking forward to the summer

vacation with a lot of excitement. Summer vacation is both a time for relaxation as well as a perfect interval

to analyze one’s performance and take measures for improvements. It is therefore imperative to spend the

holidays in a planned manner. Here are some suggestions, which we feel would make your vacation more

rewarding.

1. Get up before sunrise and watch the various shades of the sky as the sun comes up. Take a brisk morning

walk and listen to the melodious chirping of birds. Spend some time doing yoga and meditation and other

exercises to remain fit and fresh.

2. Summer activities like reading and Diary/journal writing can help you explore your creativity and

enhance your vocabulary. Keep a journal about your activities, memorable experiences, funny anecdotes,

progress made in rectifying problem areas etc.

3. Develop a new skill, be it learning simple stitching or making a few healthy snacks.

4. Watch interesting documentaries, read magazines and solve crossword puzzles etc.

5. Spend quality time with your parents/elders.

6. Take a break from social networking and talk to your elders about their experiences during the summer

vacation when they were in school and help out with household chores.

7. Write a letter to your parents, sharing your deepest feelings with them that are often left unsaid in the

commotion of your daily routine and submit the same to your Class Incharge.

8. Revise and practice all the work done before the vacation as you would be appearing for your Half

Yearly Exams shortly after the vacations.

9. Under parental supervision, students can make use of apps like Word Search, 4 Pics One Word, Word

Cookies, IEO etc. to enhance their vocabulary.

I hope these suggestions will help you to spend your vacation in a fruitful and interesting manner. I hope

that everyone has a very refreshing and creative summer vacation. I look forward to see all of you again in

July, ardent and eager to learn.
