9 DELHI PUBLIC SCHOOL ALL THINGS BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL All things bright and beautiful All creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful The Lord God made them all. Each little flower that opens, Each little bird that sings, He made their glowing colours, He made their tiny wings.

All things The cold wind in the winter, The pleasant summer sun, The ripe fruits in the garden, He made them every one. All things He gave us eyes to see them, And lips that we might tell, How great is God Almighty, Who has made all things well. 10

10 ALMANAC TRY, TRY AGAIN 'Tis a lesson you should heed, Try, try again, If at first you don't succeed, Try, try again; Then your courage should appear, For, if you will persevere You will conquer, never fear Try, try again; Once or twice, though you should fail, If you would at last prevail, Try, try again; If we strive, 'tis no disgrace Though we do not win the race; What should you do in that case? Try, try again; If you find your task is hard, Time will bring you your reward, Try, Try again; All that other folks can do, Why, with patience, should not you? Only keep this rule in view; Try, Try again. 11

11 DELHI PUBLIC SCHOOL MY CHILD My child isn't my easel to paint Nor my diamond to polish! My child isn't my trophy to flaunt, Nor my dummy to taunt! My child isn't my badge or my honour, Nor my respect that he/she must protect My child isn't an idea or a fantasy, Nor my reflection or legacy! My child isn't my puppet or my project, Nor my pawn or my cadet! My child is here to fumble and stumble To get in and out of trouble! My child is here to try, To fail and to cry! My child is here to unravel the mysteries, To educate oneself and rewrite histories! My child is here to make his/her own choices, To exercise his/her freewill and experience the consequences! As a parent, My task is to make my child able and capable, To keep aside my ego and be by his/her side! My task is to guide and educate, To let be and not frustrate! My task is to allow him/her to ponder And see my child grow into a wonder 12

12 ALMANAC FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK The 21st century world places an imperative demand on every school to venture out of their educational cosset and adapt a proactive stance to address the paradigms and challenges of a rapidly changing society. In this respect the school almanac serves as our conduit to reach out to the world and ensures an essential bond as well as stipulates an interface between the parent, child and the school. Furthermore the mentors indubitably go way beyond to enhance the performance of their proteges by detailed analysis of their grades and behavioural aspects as well as conveying the same to their parents on a regular basis through the almanac. As the pages unfurl it brings forth a preview of the upcoming plethora of activities in the scholastic and co scholastic domain, community service opportunities, challenging rig morale of education and bears testimony to our commitment to create a unique blend of core and applied education. Along with all possible technical support we believe in interacting with the students on one to one basis to inspire them for life. We offer opportunities to our students so that they learn to challenge their own abilities, learn to cooperate, collaborate, and hence learn to be a good global citizen. We recognize the fact that the world has irreversibly shrunk in terms of time, space and connectivity. The school has endeavoured to broaden its horizons by forging partnerships with international institutions and pioneered itself to become the recipient of the international school award accredited by the British Council. Moreover our perspective is to give wings to the students' imagination and ideas that need to be brought up in a global environment, acquiring global competencies and aspiring to be global leaders. It's a matter of pride for having being adjudged " The best Co-Ed. Day school of Chhattisgarh". I wish to thank the students, parents and teachers for their valuable contribution. We believe that education is the means by which we discern humanity, contribute towards its transformation, renewal and that, one's education is unsurpassed when pursued in the companionship of others and hence the integrity of the stakeholders is essential to our ethos. Optimistic and anticipating to escalate greater heights Principal 13

23 DELHI PUBLIC SCHOOL ANTI-BULLYING POLICY We believe that all students have the right to be educated in an environment where there is mutual respect and co-operation. Bullying is contrary to this approach and we do everything possible to discourage it. Bullying is when someone deliberately goes out of their way to threaten, frighten, abuse or hurt someone else. It is also taunting or name calling as well as damaging a person's property, clothing or school work. It is ganging up on someone and isolating them. School is committed to opposing bullying. Any form of the behaviour outlined below should never be ignored but challenged and the appropriate action taken. Every pupil has the right to feel safe, secure, happy and free from intimidation. Bullying can be defined as : Malicious gossip Verbal threats and abuse Intimidating behaviour causing fear, concern or isolation Aggressive physical contact Interference with personal belongings Sexual, racial, social or disability harassment Exclusion of the victim from group membership Written comments including those posted on social networking sites Graffiti in the school washroom, corridors and classrooms. It can be defined as bullying if physically or emotionally harmful actions are repetitive, wilful or persistent and are intentionally harmful and carried out by an individual or a group; if there is an imbalance of power leaving the person who is bullied feeling defenceless. Bullying is strictly prohibited inside the school premises and no such act will go unnoticed or unpunished. Act of bullying will be referred to the Discipline Committee, which after thorough investigation will recommend appropriate measures to be taken as per the guidelines laid down by CBSE. Remember It's not your fault that you are being bullied. You don't have to face this on your own. 24
