Class VI - Jain Bharati Mrigavati Vidyalaya

Dear Parent(s)
Greetings!
Exciting time is here again! Its time for summer
vacation
and
funfilled
activities.
Children
are
reservoirs of potential which need to be tapped and
channelized in diverse ways. It is essential to ignite
their imagination and foster an outlook that helps them
to explore, discover and rediscover. The holidays’
homework has been designed to enhance the knowledge
and creativity of the children and teach them to work
independently. It will not only develop their basic
academic skills but also
personal skills and the art of
time management.
Remember, that summer vacation is the time to relax
and enjoy. So, spend these holidays creating a nurturing
and stimulating environment filled with fun, frolic and
learning.
