SCHOOL DISCIPLINE
"Discipline is the continual exercise of the will, enlightened by the
intellect, so that it may act easily and habitually according to right order and
help the child to attain SELF MASTERY"
"A BASIC FOUNDATION for a virtuous Life".
Hence the school expects every child to contribute to the discipline of the school.

- The attendance Roll will be called out at the beginning of the day. Those who are not in the class will be marked absent.
- Irregular attendance, unjustified or unexplained absence of more than 3 days, habitual idleness,
disobedience or objectionable moral influence justify dismissal.
- Morning Assembly : At the first sound of the bell all stop whatever they may be doing. The pupils use this PAUSE to
compose themselves and get ready for prayer. At the sound of the second bell they move silently to the
place of ASSEMBLY where they stand according to their classes. The Assembly is conducted by the students/teachers and
by the Principal. After reciting the morning prayer a hymn is sung. Every day a pupil speaks on a particular given topic
