School conducts DEAR activity
To highlight the importance of reading in our school, DEAR (Drop Everything and Read) activity was conducted today between 11:30 am to 12:30 pm. Students and the staff members were alerted by a bell which announced the starting of DEAR activity.
Everyone dropped all their routine work and dedicated the time for extra reading. Staff members as well as students of classes 1 and 2 had brought books from their homes and everyone was found reading ardently. Since students of classes LKG and UKG cannot read properly, the teachers narrated stories to them to make them aware about the importance of reading.
During this one hour, the entire school became a big reading room. The DEAR activity is conducted repeatedly to instill a reading habit in students and staff members besides making the whole school dedicate some time for reading, keeping everything aside.
