14. Preservation & Conservation – Activity Plan of Action Session 2024-25. A new school session brings along with it a lot of excitement and a time to look forward to techniques, strategies, activities that enable the holistic development of a child. We at SSS believe that co-curricular activities at school complement what students are learning and support intellectual, emotional, social, moral, creative and physical development. A plethora of activities conducted in the school helps students to discover their latent talent. These go a long way in building confidence and self-discipline, besides imparting skills to handle competitive situations. Students evolve as individuals and learn to work as a team. Besides expanding horizons, activities encourage students to be responsible and productive citizens.
Bearing this in mind this year’s co- curricular activities are centred around ‘Preservation & Conservation’ not only in terms of environment but culture, traditions, values, social norms and behaviour.
