HOLIDAYS’
HOMEWORK
Dear Student
Wishing you a summer filled with immense happiness, adventures & enrichment! We are sure that you’ll make the most of every moment and treasure the experiences &
indelible memories gathered during these holidays. Dear students, your enthusiasm, curiosity, and dedication to learning have been a constant source of inspiration for all of
us. As we break for the holidays, I encourage you to take this time to recharge, reflect on your learning achievements, and set new goals for the coming months.
Remember, your potential is limitless, and we are here to support you every step of the way. You need to keep in mind that these holidays give a chance to learn through
experience. Even when you undertake a trip to any destinations, you come across so much of experiential learning. So, the learning must remain the center of focus.
On behalf of the entire DAV Team, I wish you all a joyful and peaceful holiday season. May it be filled with love, laughter, adventures, learning and cherished moments
with your loved ones!
