“Creativity is when sights that everyone sees arouses thinking ...

Dear Parents,

Winter vacation has begun and it’s time to have a new learning experience. We have

compiled a set of sheets and some activities to keep our child creatively engaged during these

holidays. Creativity is a part of our makeup, as we all agree that without it the purpose of

work seems to go nowhere. Children must buckle down and satisfy themselves and exhibit

their creativity. These sheets are not just fun but will also help our child to learn and observe

new things. You must help your child in doing these sheets. You need to read the instructions

to help them wherever necessary. There are some activities in which you can also join your

child and make the activity more meaningful for him/her. Some points to keep in mind:

• Holiday homework is to be done in the sheets provided. In case any activity requires any

extra sheet, please use an A-4 size sheet only.

• Homework has to be submitted on the first day of school after vacation.

• Make sure your child completes the home work before coming back to school and submits

the same to the subject teacher.

• Please take care of the neatness of the work.

Have a very happy and fruitful vacation!!!
