ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES (E.V.S.)

EVS includes History, Geography, Civics and Science. E.V.S. is an adventure to be undertaken by the child, the teacher and parents to understand the world around them. It is not a text book subject nor is it just a project. It is an experience. Much E.V.S. can be garnered at home and within the community.

SOCIALLY USEFUL AND PRODUCTIVE WORK (S.U.P.W.)

SUPW is a compulsory subject for the ICSE (X) and ISC (XII). Parents would do well to read the Council Regulations regarding S.U.P.W. A failed grade indicates failure in the exam. A child may be detained in any class if performance in S.U.P.W. is not satisfactory. S.U.P.W. may be done during the holidays. For this purpose a syllabus is sent to parents. It is advisable that you treat it with respect and see that your child attains the required grades of proficiency in the various areas indicated for individual disciplines. Skills will be tested in June after school re-opens. Any pupil whose S.U.P.W. grade is unsatisfactory will be suspended for two weeks and a re-test will be given after this period. Please encourage children to write letters, read books, answer the phone and talk to guests intelligently and politely. They should also take an interest in health foods, and have good table manners.
