SESSION 2023-24
Dear students,

The winter is finally here!

“When learning is purposeful creativity blossoms, when creativity blossoms thinking

emanates, when thinking emanates knowledge is lit, when knowledge is lit the nation
progress.”
- Dr A.P.J. ABDUL KALAM

The Winter Vacation has begun. To keep our students engaged in fun based learning
activities we have compiled a set of creative holiday homework for the Winter
Vacation. You may take help of your parents to complete the home-work. Please take a
print out of the home-work sheets and follow the instructions. Kindly make sure that
you submit the homework to the concerned subject teacher as per the submission date
suggested. Please take care of the neatness of work.

We look forward to seeing you back on campus in January

General Instructions: -
● Do all the work neatly with proper headings preferably using highlighter or coloured
pencils.
● Submission date is 10.01.2024.
● Assessment and evaluation will be done out of 10 marks (each subject)
● These marks will be incorporated in the assessments.
● Presentation, creativity will be at priority.

WE WISH YOU TONS OF JOY, HAPPINESS AND FUN

HAVE A GREAT WINTER VACATION
