Dear Parents,
 
Greeting for the new school session!
 
Dr. Phatak had envisioned a unique day long school where students are here for more time than regular school hours.The students get to choose how they spend this time by selecting amongst many exiting sport and hobby options. How are long school hours helpful? What can the students do in this extra time?
 
Hobbies create healthy social connections especially in this digital world. Being with someone who shares your passion creates opportunities for comfortable and enjoyable social interactions. Unlike challenges in academics,which are often accompanied by anxiety and stress,challenging yourself in your hobby is very empowering.Hobbies that require intense concentration are especially effective at inducing a meditative state. An athletic hobby is a great motivation to reclaim your health. The success you achieve with your hobbies translates into success in school
 
To make the fullest use of this opportunity,we have tried to enrich the range of options available to choose from sports and hobbies. Also these sessions will be conducted by very promising mentors from Pune to ensure satisfying learning experiences.
 
The enrollment for any selected activity will be for 1 complete year. It will be difficult for the faculties to accommodate in-between transfers between activities,hence transfers will not be encouraged and allowed. So we urge parents to make a well informed choice by going through the activities. All these activities will be carried out under pre-decided teacher student ratios,enrollments would be stopped after maximum number is reached.
