HOLIDAY’S HOME WORK
We hope that all students now have books with them, they now need to utilize this
quality time of vacations to revise all that has been learnt during the last two and half
months. As soon as the classes resume, we will have a revision of syllabus for 10 days
and then we will have unit tests. Details for conduct of unit test will be intimated
soon. Use this break to prepare well for the unit test. It is compulsory for all students
to write these tests.
In this regard:
1. All parents are required to clear their pending tuition fee dues. As per
government order the school is taking only the tuition fee, this is the same fee
as that of the last year.
कृपया अपने बच्चों की टू शन फीस समय पर जमा करें , सरकार के निर्दे श अनु सार आपको
अपने बच्चों की टू शन फीस पिछले साल जितनी ही दे नी है ।
2. All information related to fee payment has been sent to you via sms and
schoolpad message.
फीस जमा करने की सारी जानकारी आपको एस एम एस और स्कू ल पै ड ऐप के ज़रिये
भे जी गयी है ।
Children are not in the school but we are regularly sanitizing the school premises and
are preparing it well to welcome the children back in the campus.
Kindly Note:
2. Children need to do revision of all subjects as per the syllabus for unit test.
बच्चे आने वाले यूनिट टे स्ट के सिलेबस का रिविशन करें।
3. Please keep checking the Schoolpad APP to receive latest messages and
information that are being sent by the school regularly.
अधिक जानकारी के लिए स्कू लपै ड ऐप को चे क करते रहें , सभी ज़रूरी सर्कु लर और
स्कुल की सूचनाएं आपको स्कू लपै ड पर मिलती रहें गी।

III) Following are the two groups made for Final Project to be submitted in Boards:
Both the group members must discuss and finalize the projects on which they will be
working. After finalizing the projects, submit the names of your project with a short
summary about it. Start working on it as soon as the project is finalized.
Rules for Project making: The aim of the class project is to create something that is
tangible and useful. This should be started by students at least 6 months before the
submission deadline. The aim here is to find a real world problem that is worthwhile to
solve. For example, in time of pandemic few students are unable to purchase books, so
students can design an Online Library System for their school. They can also use a wide
variety of Python libraries to create user friendly applications such as
games, software for their school, software for their disabled fellow students, and mobile
applications.
If three people work on a project for 6 months, at least 500 lines of code is expected. There
must be no plagiarism in your codes. Everything that is proposed can be achieved using
absolutely free, and legitimate open source software.

FAMILY TIME ACTIVITIES
1. MANAGE SCREEN TIME: With majority of activities happening online, students,
parents and the complete family should restrict their time of viewing the mobiles,
television and computer screens.
ii. Encourage other Activities and provide the necessary resources (books to read,
board games, art supplies, and/or sporting equipment). Teach your kids the
games you played when you were a kid; five stones, hop scotch, Ludo, Chess etc.
iii. Play with your Kids. Be involved in their Lives. For many parents, it is just
easier to turn on the television than to actually be involved in the lives of their
children. But those intimate life details are required for successful parenting.
Please observe, listen, ask your children to share their feelings and experiences.
v. Value Family Meals, about 70% of young people say that TV is usually ON
during meals. That’s too bad because your family’s richest conversations will
always take place during meals and in the car. don’t let the TV steal quality time
from you and your kids.
2. Sunrise watch: Have a great time by sitting in the balcony or front yard and
watch the sunrise with your little one. While your child sips on some lukewarm milk,
you can sip on your early morning tea.
3. Bird feed: Put up a bird feeder in your balcony, sit back and watch the show from
your window.
4. Plantation: Help the child to plant vegetable seeds or saplings in a pot. Water and
nurture them every day and enjoy watching the plant, grow.
Books, magazines and newspapers are great learning tools. A person who knows how to
read can educate himself in any area of life as per his interest.
Please try making reading books as a hobby for children, they will never get bored in
their life and will never run out of good ideas !
6. Time with Grandparents: We can learn our culture and regional language from our
elders, children should be guided to sit with the grandparents, listen to stories of their
experiences and learn from them. Children can learn their local language too, this will
be of great help to them in future.
