Tiny Hands, Big Hearts : Community Service by Class I
At school we believe that education is complete only when it is rooted in
values. Our Class I students exemplified this belief through a community service visit to Maa Badi
Primary School, Kharafali, Kyara, conducted under the guidance of their teachers Mrs. Preeti Sharma and Mrs Minal Sharma.

The students shared a meaningful experience with the children of the host school by donating
notebooks, stationery items, pencil colours, steel plates, and biscuits. The visit also included warm
interactions and simple activities that fostered friendship, empathy, and mutual learning.
Sharing her thoughts, our Principal Mrs Uma Shyam said that introducing children to service at a
young age helps inculcate compassion, sensitivity, and a strong sense of social responsibility. She
expressed pride in the students and teachers for their sincere effort.
We extend our gratitude to the staff of Maa Badi Primary School for their cooperation and support.
This initiative reflects our continued commitment to nurturing socially responsible individuals
through learning beyond the classroom.
