Dear Parent,
The school strives hard to achieve the all-round development of the students. It is always committed towards good health, sanitation and clean environment so that the goal of holistic growth materializes for the students. As a caring mentor, we share the apprehension about the recently reported outbreak of the Coronavirus leading to global concern. While the authorities around the world are closely monitoring the outbreak, the responsibility to keep ourselves and our children safe from the prevailing problem rests with us.
We are sharing some information and guidelines from the World Health Organization and the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MOHFW), GOI to to help us calmly cope up with the current situation that we stand in the midst of.
Information about the Coronavirus:
- The human to human spread is through respiratory route due to close contact with infected patients and droplet spread.

To instill the values of personal commitment towards a healthier society, students are also given awareness sessions for prevention.
