STUDENT LIFE
VALUE EDUCATION
Divine International school is a completely secular institution that instills into its students a deep regard for Indian traditions & customs. Students are free to practice any religion of their choice and the school celebrates all major festivals with equal joy and reverence. The school believes in exposing students to diverse faiths & beliefs, so that they may become responsible, cultured & dedicated individuals. DIS strives with vigour, to help students to be their best in academics, Sports & Character. Since children spend their formative years in school, the environment in which they grow up is of tremendous significance.
At Divine, we seek to develop a sense of values and strength in each student, and create an atmosphere of honesty, earnest effort, friendliness and humility, intellectual curiosity – essential for the unfettered development of young minds.
Value Education is an integral part of School routine, and is subtly instilled in the children through consistent interactions with Housemistresses, Class teachers and other members of Staff.
Once a week informal discussions on various issues of moral and spiritual significance are organised by the Director, Principal & Vice – Principal, as part of Value Education.
