Physical Education

We believe learning happens everywhere. Physical activity in school or at home primes the brain for learning. Our Physical Education Framework is designed such that it delivers students the chance to not exclusively be physically active today but the opportunity to show aptitude and practices conducive to keep physical activity and learning for a lifetime.

We additionally lay emphasis on Life Skills alongside to sustain sensitive themes. The content is outlined from scratch introducing Life skills to students every year covering topics such as Self-Awareness, Effective Communication, Empathy, Decision-making, Creative Thinking, Interpersonal Relationships and Problem-solving skills. These skills and abilities help students introspect to become a better patient listener, expressive speaker, kind and aware to self and surrounding.

A crucial aspect of our curriculum is the dialogue class. This is a time when teachers and students focus together on the movement of enquiry and looking inward. We explore together the possibility of watching our fear, joy, anger, greed and hurt, with a sense of open curiosity rather than of judgement. In dialogues with the older students, we explore themes such as sexuality, motivation and resistance, the nature of human relationship and the self. We also have discussions regarding norms on campus and the daily issues of living together.
