We encourage students to explore their creativity. Theatre, Art and Music form an integral part of our co-curricular education. Students are offered opportunities through regular assemblies, workshops and major public productions to present and perform.

The central amphitheatre, with full stage lighting and sound facilities, is the venue for bigger productions
Great Way to teach the Moral Lessons

Educational/Academic Co-Curricular Activities
Each student does not have the same potential and learning capacity to match with the entire class. But the educational structure is designed in such a way that providing specific teachers to all sorts of students is not feasible. Hence, education and academic activities make sure that even the students legging behind for numerous reasons and come forward and choose the subjects they are interested in. This creates equality among the students in a classroom. At LPS, we nurture them with plethora of activities like
1.Poetry competition
2.Science quizzes
3.Olympiad Exams
4.English story writing
5.Essay competition
6.Projects in exhibitions
7.Speaking in assemblies
8.Conducting prayers
9.Extempores
10.Debate competition
Peaceful Co-Curricular Activities
Student life is not easy. According to statistics, a 15-year-old has the same stress levels as a 33-year-old working family man. This is because of the cutthroat competition and continuous pressure from the parents. This kind of unhealthy competition causes severe mental health issues in students which later leads to long-term harmful effects. Students at the tender age of 12, 13, and 14 years especially need time of leisure. There is so much input from schools and parents that they feel the need to release it somewhere. Peaceful and leisure co-curricular activities can help them a lot in their self-growth and personality development so that they stay focused. At Laburnum, we built their peaceful skills by conducting the following activities such as
1.Treasure hunts
2.Collecting coins
3.Cooking
4.Gardening
5.Personal reflection
6.Sessions with therapist
Social development and responsibility Related Co-Curricular Activities
Education is not merely about memorising answers and toggling them out on paper to score marks, it is much more. Schools are places where a child spends most of their time. He makes friends, meets teachers, learns about the world, and decides what he wants to do in life. One cannot succeed in life just by scoring 100 percent marks in exams, social skills are necessary for personality growth. Developing social and civic values are important to living in society. Therefore, to make a student socially aware and responsible, these activities are conducted. At LPS, we augment their social skills by conducting the below activities namely
1.Collecting funds for NGOs
2.Organising cultural events
3.Participating in school councils/cabinets
4.Scouting and guiding
5.Volunteering for social work
Celebrating cleanliness day, mental health day, etc.

Recreational Co-Curricular Activities
Students must develop a creative mind set since this is the age when their minds can learn the most. Recreation and fun are essential parts of schooling. Indeed, all work and no play make Jack a dull boy. Therefore, conducting fun co-curricular activities will help students to find their creative calling, explore their talents and develop their hobbies. Recreational activities also act as a stress buster, so the students who are appearing for board exams, it is a great way to relax rejuvenate them to score well in exams. At LPS, we develop their recreational skills by the following activities viz.

Physical growth related Co-Curricular Activities
Most schools do not pay much attention to the physical development of students. As a result, students suffer from health problems at an early age. Yes, the development of students intellectually and socially is necessary, but without physical development, all of these factors go in vain. As it is said, health is wealth, playing outdoor games and challenging the physical health of students through co-curricular activities help them to enhance their ability of learning. Check out our sports facilities. That is why physical education and periods are important ingredients of students’ courses of study. At Laburnum Public School, we develop their physical growth by some activities such as
1.Athletics
2.Yoga
3.Meditation
4.Running
5.Medical fitness test
Culture and value-based Co-Curricular Activities
Showcasing talent gives a major boost to confidence. Most students in schools have often stated that they were introverts and lacked confidence. This is because, in a class of many students, there will only be a few who will be scoring good marks and getting teachers’ attention. In such a scenario, students who are not good at academics but excel in other co-curricular activities lose confidence. When schools, conduct festivals and cultural competitions within the school and with outside schools also, Students get an opportunity to develop their skills and put them out there. It also helps in their creativity. At LPS, we promote their culture skills by the activities like
1.Dance competition
2.Singing competition
3.Folk art workshops
4.Drawing competition
5.Fancy dress competitions
6.Dramatics
7.Exhibitions
8. Club activities

Arts and Craft related Co-Curricular Activities
Art and craft always have a significantly positive impact on the mind sets of students. Most students learn to express themselves through some form of art. Whether it is sketching, drawing, painting, origami, to craft, students always love this class the most. One reason behind including arts and crafts in extracurricular activities is also because it increases concentration. Many students face the problem of lack of concentration while studying or inability to understand fast, practising art regularly can visibly enhance their learning potential.
