Helping Focus

SAMBHAAV CARE N SHARE -

It is all about empowering students to build entrepreneurial skills, associate with NGOs like Sewa Bharti and Helpage India for helping special children and adults and support underprivileged to raise their level to greater heights by using their potential by helping them to take care of themselves. SAMBHAAV Enterprises is also the school's initiative to take care of the three Ps- People, Planet & Profit. The Profit earned is being utilized for helping the underprivileged and special children and diversifying our business at the same time. As a part of this challenge students had to do resource analysis of the school, its nearby locality and start up with a business idea.

GOOD EARTH PROJECT-

Eco Awareness Club has been formed in the school. It is an effort to sensitize students towards the protection and care of environment. In association with organisations like TDPPL, GLOBE, TERI, NCT Bhagidari activities on garbage management, water and air pollution testing, energy conservation etc. are conducted. The school uses a solar inverter, a paper recycling unit for eco paper making & a rolly polly machine for composting garbage. Students are also sensitized time to time through talks, competitions, pledges to use water and electricity judiciously as well as to minimise the use of polythene. To further teach students respect for their environment and be responsible citizens, the school assigns House Projects to House & each House is responsible to promote and sensitize students related to that activity. Students share the responsibility by working on projects like Go Green, Garbage Management, Save Water, Save Energy, Say No to Polythene, Foil Collection etc.
