This time used for practice was to be during government holidays, Sundays, summer vacations
th
and in the 8 period of the day, which is generally used for the co-curricular activities. No
regular study class or school hour was used for practice. Thus the importance on studies and
class were kept intact. Studies should not hamper in any aspect as this was all about holistic

The main challenge in every school in the management of the 8 period or the last period chaotic
environment was managed to be checked to a certain extent by involving the students in
practicing for the morning assembly. Students inclined towards music were provided with

musical instruments like table, guitar, flute/ cajon, drum etc and were made to utilize the 8
period constructively. They practice for the morning assembly and complement the group songs
with soothing music.
Discipline is taken care of and students inclined to substance abuses are motivated to participate
in small musical events and assembly. This for us is INNOVATION at its best, as skill/talent in
integrated with Academics and total involvement of teachers/ students in visible.
