ECA and CCA

"By education I mean an all around drawing out of the best in the child and man; body, mind and spirit." Mahatma Gandhi

Every child is unique, hence each child requires special attention and guidance to develop their unique skills. With this strong conviction, we, at The Landmark School, provide ample opportunities for the academic, physical and cognitive development... Apart from the core subjects taught through a very interactive approach, or the set pattern of physical education, we have also included various Extra Curricular Activities (ECA) and Co- curricular activities (CCA) in the mainstream curriculum.

Under the able guidance of our swimming coaches and our P. E. teachers, students are seen practicing their preferred sport, Monday to Friday between 2.30 PM - 3.30 PM. Students are given a choice to select from a plethora of sports like basketball, football, badminton, cricket, skating, karate, athletics, hockey, swimming & cricket.

Co-Curricular activities are equally important, hence we, at The Landmark School, have integrated CCA into the curriculum. This helps students develop talents beyond their subject knowledge. It also enhances teaching methods in the classroom and generates interest in students. It’s mandated for students to be a member of any one club, namely Eco club, Cultural club, Science Club and Literature club.

Additionally, The Landmark School, conducts various activities to enhance students’ awareness towards the environmental sustainability, social issues and the cultural diversity around us.Few events that were conducted to generate such awareness are Quiz competition, Spell Bee, Quiz on Idioms and expressions.

To attain an environmentally sustainable society, students ought to be taught to be mindful of the nature around us. As we firmly believe that nature is a tool to get children to experience not just the wider world, but themselves Values like caring and preserving of nature are well imparted through Gardening activities, such as composting, sowing seeds, planting saplings, grafting and understanding how renewable energy like solar energy can be used in daily life. The students have also created a herbal garden where they have planted the saplings which was purchased during their educational field trip to GKVK. They showed a great enthusiasm in learning the names of the plants, as well as knowing the correct purpose of it.

We firmly believe in "Learning that is truly human". An awareness was created regarding this on world Humanitarian Day through videos on roles of humanitarian organizations like Red Cross, UNESCO etc. The need of the hour is that as our motto says we always link our learning to life.

"WE NEED TO PREPARE OUR UPCOMING GENERAION FOR LIFE CHALLENGES, NOT JUST FOR EXAMS"
