EducationWorld December 2023 | Spotlight Feature

3 (2)It is a big decision for the parents when they enroll their child in school. At our schools under the supportive management led by the Pro Vice Chairperson Ms Devyani Jaipuria, we believe early years are of utmost importance in a child’s development. It is during this time that your little one embarks on a journey of exploration beyond the confines of home. These formative years lay the foundation for lifelong passion for learning, and we are thrilled to play a pivotal role in making each day an engaging and educational adventure for your child.

At our schools, every day is a step towards unlocking your child’s potential. Under the guidance of our Director, Ms Aditi Misra, DPS Sector-45 Gurgaon, DPS, Jaipur, and Dharav High School, Jaipur collectively stand as beacons of educational excellence. Our pre-primary classes are not just about learning; they are a harmonious blend of joy and education, meticulously aligned with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.

The little ones are welcomed into a vibrant, child-friendly space, providing a nurturing and stimulating environment. With colourful classrooms, age-appropriate learning resources, and dedicated educators who strive to create a space where curiosity is sparked, imaginations soar, and the love for learning begins to blossom.

Each day in our schools starts with a beautiful morning prayer and age-appropriate yoga session, creating the perfect atmosphere for a positive beginning. Engaging in gentle yoga and laughter exercises energises our students and sets the mood for a day filled with joy and happiness. It’s a delightful way to start the day, promoting physical well-being and a positive mindset for our young learners.

Incorporating the Panchkosh philosophy into our classroom activities ensures a comprehensive and balanced approach, acknowledging and nurturing the diverse dimensions of a child’s development. The various classroom activities spark children’s enthusiasm through circle time discussions, songs, colouring, clay moulding, counting drills, picture reading and reading time.

Dedicated to nurturing young learners, our Toyrooms stand out as their favourite learning centres, bringing the captivating realm of toy-based pedagogy to life. Here, children joyfully embark on exploration, guided by hands-on learning principles. The rooms are filled with carefully selected toys and sensory zones that spark curiosity, encouraging active connection with their surroundings. Role-playing takes centre stage, allowing our young learners to step into different roles fostering creativity, social interaction, and problem-solving skills. The Toyrooms are a special place where children play and learn through the wonderful world of toys.

Music, dance, drama and storytelling are invaluable tools in early childhood education. Our vibrant Drama Rooms serve as a dynamic space, inviting our little ones to listen to stories and actively immerse themselves in the narratives. Through role-playing and interactive storytelling sessions, our Drama Rooms transform into wonderlands, nurturing listening, speaking and essential social skills. With the added elements of music and dance, our Drama Rooms become a symphony of imagination and creativity where the learning lasts a lifetime.

Embracing experiential learning, our daily schedule is meticulously crafted to cultivate an educational environment that continuously introduces discoveries for our young learners. From conducting simple, age-appropriate experiments to learning about budgeting through practical shopping experiences, visits to specially created traffic parks, nature walks, and exploring the school surroundings, all these activities encourage active engagement with real-world situations. This hands-on approach enables children to apply their knowledge in practical settings, fostering a genuine love for exploration and critical thinking.

Our commitment extends to integrating technology seamlessly through our IT labs, providing young minds a window to the future and preparing them for the digital age. Within these labs, we focus on enhancing fine motor skills, ensuring that even our youngest learners become comfortable using technology. As part of their preschool experience, children develop the ability to use a mouse and learn typing, laying a foundation for their digital literacy journey.

Step into our outdoor spaces, where the fun goes beyond colourful swings and slides. Amidst the laughter and excitement, children discover a creative haven – a corner filled with colours and paintbrushes for imaginative expression. Additionally, our outdoor houses have a beautiful kitchen garden, providing hands-on experience in learning about plants. This helps spark curiosity and nurtures a sense of care and appreciation for the vibrant green world around us.

Our meal rooms are bustling with energy during mealtime as children learn the importance of eating healthy food. Teaching little ones the significance of choosing nutritious food, understanding portion control, and learning dining etiquette are critical learnings in this zone. The meal rooms offer healthy options, and it’s heartening to witness the children enjoy their meals and appreciate the importance of eating right along with their classmates.

We strongly believe that fostering sensitivity and responsibility in young minds is a journey that begins early. It involves cultivating an appreciation for our helpers and instilling gratitude for those who assist us. This approach aims to shape a child who embodies civility, using magic words like “please” and “thank you”, and values everyone who contribute to their well-being. Moreover, it helps nurture a sense of responsibility and consideration for others in our children.

A dedicated ‘Counseling room’ and’ Comfort Zone’ prioritise the well-being of our little ones. Our team of experienced professionals deliver personalised attention, addressing the needs of each child. This ensures a supportive environment where children feel heard, valued, and cared for in school.

At the heart of our educational philosophy lies a profound belief in the extraordinary partnership between home and school, playing a pivotal role in shaping each child’s social and emotional development. Our commitment goes beyond the classroom, extending into the homes and hearts of our students and their families. We aim to foster a profound connection of shared pride and joy by celebrating special days devoted to family and providing parents and their loving grandparents with meaningful celebrations full of happiness and pride.

At our schools, parents aren’t just spectators; they are integral members of our close-knit family. As engaged partners, they participate in events such as career days to share insights into various professions, and contribute to community outreach initiatives. This collaboration embodies the spirit of service before self, demonstrating the values of sharing and caring. It strengthens our school community and provides valuable real-life lessons for young learners.

Every corner of our school is a learning space, ensuring children get valuable lessons. Whether it’s the water bodies imparting lessons on water conservation or the entire classroom thoughtfully arranged, from labelled windows to switchboards, every corner helps facilitate and enhance the learning experience.

In our pre-primary sections across all schools, we embrace the delicate art of nurturing, recognising the significance of these formative years when our little ones step out and begin their journey of learning beyond the comfort of their homes. With specialised spaces, experienced professionals, and a curriculum designed with care, we strive to create an environment that not only imparts knowledge but also provides the warmth and support essential for their formative years. In our schools, we don’t just teach; we inspire, guide, and create an environment, where each child feels cherished and confident, and the joy of learning becomes a lifelong companion.

We look forward to being a part of your child’s educational journey and making these early years a time of discovery, growth, and joy.
