PREFACE

Dear Parents and Students,

Summer vacation is around the corner, bringing with itself a much-needed respite from
hectic school days. We hope that you will thoroughly enjoy the vacations and make the
most of this summer. While it is indeed important that you relax and refresh yourselves, it is
also important that you exercise your minds.

Keeping this in mind, we have designed various exciting activities to keep the students
engaged and active during the summer vacation. These fun projects/ assignments would
enhance learning skills, help understand concepts better, and make for a great crash course
aimed at improving academic output.

These activities will not only help you to revise what was taught, but will also enrich your
knowledge. These projects will be assessed as Subject Enrichment Activity, Portfolioor
Art Integrated activity.

We encourage parents to motivate and support the students to ensure the given work is
completed in time, to the best of their ability. Your support and encouragement both have a
huge impact on your child’s learning ability.

Wishing you a fun filled, safe summer vacation.
