We always try to put in the same amount of effort for such activities as they tend to develop children comprehensively and when students perform in a laudable way in such tournaments, we feel really happy for them. Managing academics along with extracurricular activities is a great achievement in itself and students are undeniably achieving that. These efforts would boost their hard and soft skills that would stay beneficial for them in a long run. Participation like such also give students a platform to explore and interact with new people resulting in better social skills” says Geeta Varshneya, Education Director, Khaitan Public School.
