The school exposes the children to several extra-curricular
activities. There is ample scope for children to extend their
learning and get excellent first hand experience through
activities beyond the regular school time. The range of activities
on offer includes: sports, music, drama, art and design and
outdoor education. This is in addition to a wide range of
adventure and nature camps and educational excursions.
The children meet every day for an assembly of 15 minutes in
length. The assemblies which are themed across the week, reflect
on contemporary & value-oriented issues. The assemblies include a
pledge, a prayer, news reading, thought for the day, new word to
be learnt, a quiz question and a small article of common interest.
All pupils from class I to class XII are divided in four
houses, Damanganga, Narmada, Sabarmati & Tapi. All co-curricular
activities are conducted on inter-house basis. The house, which
gets maximum number of points including academic performance
becomes the champion house of the year.
Gnyan Dham encourages its students to participate in a
number of Inter House and Inter School literary activities like
Quiz Competitions, Debates, Elocution, Extempore, Essay Writing
and Handwriting Competition in different languages, Spelling-Bee
Competition and several other literary aspects.
Out-of-school visits for children are organised periodically
and visitors of interest are invited to school to enhance and
enrich the children’s learning experiences. When travelling or
entrance fees are necessary, parents are asked to meet such costs
by making a voluntary contribution. The teachers plan school trips
carefully and a full risk assessment is carried out before any
trip can take place and on all trips the recommended ratio of
adults to children is fully met. The school always seeks written
parental consent before taking children out of school.
