Development via Co-Curricular Activity
Dheeraj International School believes co-curricular activities
are an integral part of the total educational process. Through
participation in these opportunities, students can have
experiences and training in events not ordinarily obtainable in
the general curriculum. Policies have been developed and are
implemented to cultivate the high ideals of good citizenship,
community involvement and personal growth. This helps students
to develop school spirit, community and commitment, thereby
developing a sense of connectedness.
We follow CBSE
co-curricular activities which will enhance the child's
behavioural growth, social growth, thinking ability growth, team
work, leadership and many more.
Mental Development
Mental development is an important aspect of growth, embracing
the various mental abilities. Mental development includes such
abilities as attending, perceiving, observing, remembering,
imagining, thinking, solving problems and growth of intelligence
as well as of language.
At DIS, we have introduced Vedic
Mathematics classes right from grade 1 for the development of
the brain which increases and boosts critical thinking and
logical thinking skills of a child.
Counselling
“Counselling is the application of the personal resources of
the school to the solution of the problems of the individual”
Guidance and counselling are important for children, and schools
have a huge role in bringing out the best in children. Good
conduct is coveted, but sometimes young minds need guidance to
polish their personality. Through counselling, children are
given advice on how to manage and deal with emotional conflict
and personal problems.
At DIS we have counsellors, who
counsel the students in every aspect, whether it may be social
or personal issues or related to study habits which might affect
the growth and thinking ability of the child.Students are given
proper guidance on how to deal with psychological problems which
can impact their studies.
The students are advised on how
to cope with different situations they tend to face in their
school life. For instance, how should they talk politely or
relate with their peers. This advice will give them perspective
on how they should behave in certain scenarios.
We help to
shape a student's behaviour and also instil enough discipline in
them. Students learn how to live in peace and harmony with
others in the school community.
Sports
Sports develop the physical as well as mental strength in
students. Daily physical exercise is essential for students
because exercise not only helps students to stay healthy, but it
also helps to improve their emotional fitness.
At DIS we
provide different types of sports for children for their
physical and emotional fitness. As of now CBSE has only
initiated Khelo India whose motto is
“Khelega India toh Badhega India”.
Clubs
Clubs and organizations are a great way to help develop your
character and the skills that will benefit the students in
school, career and life. Skills like commitment, leadership,
effective communication, and being able to work successfully
in a group all come from participating in a club or
organization.
There are five clubs from which a student
can select to be a member of any one club in an academic year
Books are my Best Friends - Editorial Club
Editorial Club helps to see the world through the eye of
maximum perspectives. At DIS, we train the young minds to
pen down their thoughts and write articles on various
topics.
The team comprises students of Dheeraj
International School who collect, collate and conceptualize
the presentation of the various activities conducted in the
school throughout the year.
Developing a flair for
writing, especially creative writing is what this club aims
at. Tapping the power of words through one's writing gives
wings to a child's creativity and expression.
Million Dollar Club - Dramatics Club
Dance, Sing, Laugh, and Shine with the Dramatics Club wherein
Drama and Emotions rule this glittery world. Students build
self-confidence, overcome stage fear and develop better
communication skills.
The Drama Club is dedicated to
bringing the joy and power of Drama to students by providing
high quality dramatic programming at the beginner and
intermediate levels. It pledges to offer participants the
chance to experience the excitement and rewards of theatre
arts while developing poise, social skills, confidence and the
ability to work with others.
Cuisine Artists - Cooking Club
Food lovers create art using their culinary skills. Exploring
their imagination and learning to innovate is what makes this
club an attraction.
Cooking with kids is a great way to
educate them about good nutrition, what's in season, planning
and preparing meals, and reading food labels. It can encourage
them to eat healthy foods, especially ones they may normally
refuse to try. Expand their horizons by getting students in
the kitchen through a healthy cooking club!
Green Go Getters - Environmental Club
Sustainability and love for the Environment is what sets apart
this club. The members solve issues related to the environment
and contribute to promoting the well-being of the Earth we
live in.
At DIS, we have introduced an environment club,
which bears the responsibility of sensitizing fellow students
about conservation. This helps students reach out to influence
and engage their peers, parents and neighbourhood communities
to promote sound environmental behaviour. We empower students
to explore environmental concepts and actions beyond the
confines of school curriculum.
The Change makers - Maths and Science Club
Inculcating a scientific bend of mind, the Maths and Science Club helps students to improve their concentration, memory and retention through maths and science activities.
