Message from the Principal

“Vacations mean a change of pace, a gentleness with ourselves, a time of rest and renewal
and a time to stretch ourselves and encounter new people, new lands, new ways and new
possibilities.”
We are extremely proud of our children for doing so well in this session so far. We appreciate you for
putting your best efforts in academics, co-curricular, physical activities and other school programs. The
wonderful performance displayed by class X and XII students proves that a lot of hard work and
perspiration has gone into achieving excellence in all aspects. I congratulate you all including the
teachers and hope that the future will hold higher success and achievement.

The educational landscape is undergoing rapid and profound transformations. We at Hansraj embrace
modern methodologies and innovative teaching practices to keep pace with all the changes happening
for the betterment of our children.

Holidays Homework is a reflection of classroom learning. We have designed the Holidays Homework as
a purposeful task that strives to encourage the application of classroom learning, fostering self-
directed exploration and reinforcement of concepts learnt. Hansraj makes sincere efforts to avoid
mere repetition or encourage rote learning in students. The designed holidays homework is a fine
example of it.

Dear children, summer vacations are an excellent opportunity for you to become friends with books.
Reading stories will help you expand your mind, your language and your understanding of people,
different cultures and practices beyond your scope. Remember those who read always have an edge
over others. Also, find time to travel with your family and explore new places.

Enjoy this unrestricted time with your family members, listen to their stories about times before and
share with them what you think about things around you. Try learning new skills and develop a hobby
and indulge in activities which provide extensive exercise for your body and mind. Let technology
enable you to gain insight into subjects of interest, use it as an aid to visit places virtually and learn
about people who made a difference.

The most important thing, dear children, is to keep asking questions. Questions help us to find
answers. You are full of potential and promise, so gear up and spread your imagination and use these
holidays to further enhance your skills and personality.

We hope Hansarians will enjoy doing the given work using it as an opportunity to learn, to grow, to
think out of the box and to expand, skills and creativity.
