Is it all right for my child to spend more time on activities?

Holistic education demands development of all aspects of individual's personality including cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains. It is unfortunate that not much attention and emphasis is given to the development of interests, hobbies and passions of learners.

Focusing on excellence in academics alone undoubtedly results in lop-sided development of personality. It is thus essential that due importance be given to participation in co-curricular activities like music/ dance, art, dramatics and other areas of ones interests. This is likely to make life more fulfilling and enjoying.
