Schools to Complete Essential Repairs Before June 16
Ahead of the academic session starting on June 16, the Collector instructed officials to ensure all schools undergo necessary repairs before reopening. This includes painting, toilet repairs, drinking water facilities, and additional classroom construction as per requirements.
Furthermore, he directed authorities to issue caste and residence certificates for students before school admissions, ensuring a hassle-free enrollment process.
Promoting Sports for Student Development
To encourage physical fitness and career-oriented sports, Collector Agarwal emphasized the identification of schools where sports activities could be developed. He urged teachers to identify students’ interests in various sports and provide them with the necessary training to help them build a career in the field.
“Physical activity is essential in schools, and students should be supported in excelling in their chosen sports,” he said. Regular health monitoring of students was also suggested as part of the initiative.
Summer Camp to be Organized Again This Year
Building on the success of last year’s Summer Camp, the Collector directed officials to organize another camp this year, ensuring it provides an enriching experience for students.
“Summer camps are a great way to discover and nurture students’ hidden talents. Every child possesses unique abilities, and it is our responsibility to encourage them and help them enhance their skills,” he stated.
This year, the camp will include creative and skill-based activities such as:
- Road Safety Awareness
- Preventing Cyber Fraud
- Community Development Initiatives
- Water Conservation and Tree Plantation Projects
He stressed the importance of physical, cultural, and social activities in the camp, as they contribute to a child’s overall personality development. Children will also be educated on environmental conservation and the importance of afforestation.
