Co-Curricular Activities
At St. Mary’s School, Rishra, we believe that education extends beyond academics. Co-curricular activities play a vital role in nurturing confidence, discipline, creativity, and critical thinking. These activities provide students with opportunities to explore their interests, develop leadership, and build a well-rounded personality, preparing them for challenges in and beyond the classroom.
Physical Education
Physical fitness is a core part of our co-curricular program. Regular PT sessions and structured sports activities help students develop stamina, coordination, discipline, and teamwork. Physical education not only promotes health but also builds resilience and a spirit of fair play.
Dance & Music
Dance and music bring rhythm, joy, and creativity into the lives of our students. While dance classes help them express themselves artistically and appreciate cultural traditions, music education—both vocal and instrumental—enhances concentration, emotional expression, and confidence. Together, these art forms provide a strong foundation in creativity and self-expression.
Chess
Chess is introduced as a mind-sharpening activity that encourages logical reasoning, concentration, and patience. Through regular practice and competitions, students learn to think strategically, plan ahead, and solve problems effectively.
Art & Craft
Art and craft sessions foster imagination, design skills, and fine motor development. Students explore creativity through drawing, painting, and craftwork, which not only enhances visual learning but also offers a calming and engaging outlet for self-expression.
Quiz & Debate
Quizzes and debates are an integral part of our co-curricular program, encouraging academic curiosity, awareness, and communication skills. Quizzes test knowledge across diverse subjects, while debates build confidence, logical reasoning, and public speaking ability.
Drama & Elocution
Drama and elocution activities provide platforms for students to express ideas, emotions, and stories through performance and speech. Drama instills teamwork, stage presence, and creativity, while elocution sharpens pronunciation, articulation, and confidence in spoken English.
Through these co-curricular activities, St. Mary’s School, Rishra ensures that every child develops not only academic excellence but also creativity, confidence, and a strong value system, enabling them to grow into responsible and well-rounded individuals.
