Dear Parent,
Summer Vacations are synonymous with fun, frolic, getting up
late in the morning,
playing for longer hours with friends, going for picnics,
exploring new places and watching
fun filled shows on television. But, there is a lot more your
ward can do to make
vacations more interesting, meaningful and full of fun. Here is
a Summer vacation
Activity Treasure Box. It will surely mould your ward for a
better and successful
forthcoming year.
Few guidelines to make your wards long summer break
fruitful.
1. Knowledge is Power. Therefore encourage your child to
cultivate the reading habit
because it not only enhances the knowledge acquired but also
develops the vocabulary,
language skills and improves spellings. And also read to your
child because it builds
reading skills and increases his/her attention span.
2. A healthy mind lives in a healthy body. Encourage your child
to go out and play
because sports instill discipline, generate sporting spirits,
channelize energies
constructively.
3. Communication skills play a pivotal role in grooming the
overall personality of the
children. Converse with your child preferably in English to help
him / her get comfortable

requested to encourage your child to do Holiday Homework on his/her
own so that the aims and objectives of learning are achieved in
real sense. Please be a guide and a facilitator but ensure that the
efforts should be solely of the child.
