Dear Parents,
Summer Vacations are here with all the fun and frolic. Apart from enjoying we want the students to keep in touch with their studies also. Hence the holiday home work has been prepared keeping these points in mind. The holiday home work being given is creative and thought provoking. It can be done with some guidance from you and the teachers who will brief the students. We would request you to avoid taking any professional help.
