Educational Activities

Youngsters need to understand the purpose of life. They need courage and wisdom to face the challenges of life. With that understanding they become the light of the world. If we care for them responsibly, moulding their whole character with love, then the future of the world will be safe. – THE DOON GRAMMAR SCHOOL

Education is Nation Building activity. A school is not a building where a few children are confined in closed classrooms and bits of information are transferred to their brains. A school is an organic system of transforming young children into responsible citizens. The objective of the transformation is to build a strong, vibrant Nation. For a Nation to be strong and vibrant, its citizens should be physically strong, intellectually sound, morally upright, spiritually awakened and must have faith in the Nation’s values and culture. THE DOON GRAMMAR SCHOOL strives to mould the character of every child under its care and to develop their whole personality in a harmonious and positive way, which alone will bring about a qualitative change in their lives. In short, THE DOON GRAMMAR SCHOOL strives to educate students not just for a living, but for life itself.
