The safe people could be family member or a non-family member. Students are quite adventurous and sometimes get into petty conflicts. To avoid these conflicts students learnt how they can protect themselves and be harmless on playground by observing hazardous things around them. These skills can help students in avoiding careless mishaps and accidents. After all, playtime is all about exploring, learning and enjoying without getting hurt. ROBOTICS During their Robotics lessons, students made a human skeleton using 'Straw-bees' kit. This whole activity made them understand how skeleton gives shape to our body.

They connected this to the real life to see what would happen if there was more pressure laid on the bones. Important Events in the month of July 2019
