Holistic Development Approach

In addition to academic enrichment, holistic education of children is a key feature of Satya Bharti Schools. To achieve this, a series of co-curricular activities are carried out at all schools. These include:

• Rang Tarang Competition: To recognise the creative skills of children and encourage expression through Art. Over the years, the competition has evolved into an annual celebration that includes English language competitions at the school, cluster and district levels.
• Bal Sabhas are special assemblies conducted every third Saturday of the month, providing a platform for group interaction among student peers to discuss topics assigned by teachers. This helps children develop research and public speaking skills to expand their knowledge.
• House Activities: Students of Satya Bharti Schools are grouped into three houses – Shakti (Strength), Shanti (Peace) and Vaibhav (Prosperity). House-wise activities are scheduled regularly, inducing the spirit of inclusivity and healthy competition through group work.
• Sports Day: is an annual event held across all schools at both school and cluster levels, to nurture the spirit of sports.
• Language Weeks: English, Mathematics, Environmental Science and Local Language Weeks are held across all schools, engaging students through demonstrations and subject related project work.
• Important Days such as Independence Day, Republic Day, Teacher’s Day and Children’s Day are celebrated for increased cultural awareness. Origin and significance of other important national and international days are also shared with students in morning assemblies.
• Student Excursions: to nearby towns and cities help students to perceive the context of their local culture and also connect with the outside world.
• Participation in External Competitions: is encouraged to promote interaction with other schools and help imbibe the spirit of healthy competition.

One of the main principles of the Satya Bharti School Program is to instill a sense of social involvement, by helping children create links within their community and village. Community development campaigns form an integral part of the teaching learning process, wherein children are encouraged to work alongside community members to find, formulate and implement solutions to various social issues. Our belief is that these initiatives will go a long way in transforming students into socially responsible citizens, who will actively participate in resolving social issues beyond their village even at a later stage in life. Over the years, students have addressed several social issues such as empowerment of the girl child, respect for widows, eradication of child marriage and caste discrimination, environmental protection drives, etc. These student-centric, community initiatives have received several accolades at international platforms such as the Design for Change School Contest, the Pramerica Spirit of Community Awards among others.
