Beyond Academics
At Deeksha STEM Schools, we believe in a holistic developmental approach, encouraging talents in non-academic domains. We offer a variety of co-curricular activities to help children identify, develop, and flourish in their passions and interests. Some of the activities include:
- Yoga
- Karate
- Dance
- Theatre
- Music
- Sports
- Literature and Culture
We approach the co-curricular activities not as peripheral additions to the school calendar but as disciplines in themselves and as instruments for the realization of potential. To that end, the activities are structured in a way to ensure maximum and meaningful participation be it competitive sports, literary activities, creative and performing arts, or social and community exposure.
To ensure that children develop a genuine interest in sports, a structured framework has been designed. There is a wide array of sports and games to pursue at the campus. Children are educated about the rules, technicalities, and nuances of individual sports and games, along with the history of the sport its cultural and national significance. To ensure that every child participates in the sports, all children up until grade 6 are exposed to every sport and game at school. After the preliminary exposure in the lower grades, the children are given a choice to choose their favourite sport to compete and excel in it.
Other co-curricular activities divided into clubs are designed and allocated in a way to give children channels for creative expression and multiple avenues to contribute and participate. There are clubs for music and dance, band, dramatics, yoga, taekwondo, debate, and quizzes to cover the spectrum of creative interests. Every child is given a chance to participate in all different activities up until grade 6, beyond which point, children can choose to pursue their own exclusive interests and excel in them. There are competitive events and showcase events planned for each activity where every child gets to participate.
