When people think of schools, they often focus on academics. But at Agasthya Vidya Mandir, co-curricular activities are an essential part of who we are. They shape confidence, social skills, creativity—and give students joy, challenge, and balance.
What Co-curricular Activities Look Like
They include:
- Sports & Physical Education: athletics, team sports, martial arts etc., which build physical health, teamwork and discipline.
- Arts & Cultural Programmes: music, dance, visual arts, drama—letting students express themselves and build sensitivity and confidence.
- Clubs & Societies: debate, public speaking, robotics, environmental clubs—where leadership and peer learning flourish.
- Outdoor Learning / Field Trips: nature walks, science trips, social outreach—linking classroom learning with real life.
Benefits for Students
- Confidence & Self-Expression: Trying new things helps students find strengths outside academics.
- Teamwork & Collaboration: Working in groups, communicating ideas, taking shared responsibility.
- Time Management & Prioritization: Balancing studies and extra activities builds discipline.
- Stress Relief: Physical activity & creative expression help emotional wellbeing.
AVM’s Approach to Co-curricular Excellence
- Ensuring ample infrastructure: sports grounds, courts, art & music rooms.
- Qualified coaches and teachers guiding children in talents.
- Balanced scheduling so students can participate without compromising academics.
- Showcasing student work: events, exhibitions, competitions to motivate them and celebrate achievements.
Integrating Co-curricular with Curriculum
We believe these activities are not extras—they’re integrated part of growth:
- Project work may include art or science club elements.
- Science fairs, debates and quizzes encourage research skills and presentation.
- Sports or arts events are educational: e.g. understanding anatomy in sports, history & cultural context in dance or music.
Conclusion
Academic success is important, but education that lacks co-curricular life is incomplete. At Agasthya Vidya Mandir, we dedicate ourselves to enriching student lives with experiences that build character, confidence, joy, and life skills. Co-curricular activities are not just add-ons—they are central to our mission of shaping well-rounded, future-ready individuals.
