Road Safety continues to be a major developmental and public health concern, acting as a leading cause of death and injuries worldwide. The Government of India, in collaboration with various state governments, observes the National Road Safety Week from January 11 to January 17 every year. This year, the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRT&H) has started the Indian Road Safety Campaign, organising road safety activities, aimed at grassroot level citizen involvement in road safety measures across the nation. The theme for this year's Road Safety Campaign was 'Sadak Suraksha Jeevan Raksha'. To raise our students' awareness about traffic rules and ultimately, to reduce casualties due to road accidents, various activities were conducted for Primary Classes in our school.

Class I students recited and wrote short poems on ‘Road Safety’. Through this activity an attempt was made to create awareness and to sensitize our students about the importance of road safety so that they become responsible road users. They also enjoyed watching animated videos.

Students of Class II made Miniature Traffic Signs and spoke about the traffic rules in general.

Students of Class III, illustrated the two most important safety measures - wearing a seat belt and helmet. They also shared their views on the importance of road safety and following traffic rules.

As a part of this campaign, students of Class IV made ‘Road Safety Word Mat’ to learn and understand the importance of words associated with Road Safety. They also spoke about the meanings of different Traffic Signs.

Students of Class V wrote creative slogans and also spoke about the efforts of the government to increase awareness about Road Safety.

Holistic development of a child depends upon the hard work of student, parent and the teacher. Parent teacher meeting is an opportunity to exchange observation of a child with each other. Sharing daily experiences and observations provide a wider prospect for both parent and teacher to plan, prepare and execute for better learning outcome of a child.

Keeping this in mind, a Virtual Parent Teacher Meeting was organised for Classes I to XII. Parents were extremely happy and were thankful for all the efforts made by the school in facilitating the virtual connect between the teachers, students and parents.

It’s not the destination but the journey which counts.” We are immensely gratified to share with you all one such ‘journey’. Aishwarya Nagdev of Class XI-A wrote a letter to Bhagat Singh which has been published in the book titled ‘Unlocking Minds: Covid 19’. The book has been edited by Dr. Kanwalpreet who teaches Political Science to undergraduate students in Chandigarh.

The book is based on the idea of writing letters to those personalities who leave an individual in awe or in shock. It is an impeccable compilation of 22 letters written to inspiring personalities - varying from Hitler to Mussolini, from Bhagat Singh to Mahatma Gandhi and from Charlie Chaplin to Ruskin Bond. The students got an opportunity to pen down their beautiful thoughts, storming their minds time and again.

Getting a chance to write to an idol, whom Aishwarya adores and admires, was no less than a fortuity for her!

It has been quite rightly remarked by the German writer Eckhart Tolle that ‘Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.’ 2020 has been a year fraught with challenges, the foremost among them being the COVID 19 pandemic.

However, 2020 has also been a year to look back and reflect on the things that we are grateful for – the things that hitherto went unnoticed and unacknowledged. We have learned that we are stronger that we expected ourselves to be and inspite of various roadblocks, we still can be hopeful and optimistic for a bright future. Lastly, 2020 also gave us the time and opportunity to relish the simple pleasures and joys of our lives. Joy has, after all, proved to be an incredibly powerful companion during suffering.

On the lines of being in gratitude and spreading hope and joy, St. Mark’s Sr. Sec. Public School, Janakpuri, presented ‘GRATEFUL HOPEFUL JOYFUL’, the virtual cultural program that was prepared by the students of Classes VI-VIII.

The event was graced with the benign virtual presence of our Chairman Sir, Mr. T.P. Aggarwal, Director Ma’am, Ms. Anjali Aggarwal, Manager Sir, Mr. Rahul Aggarwal, Principal Ma’am, Ms. Alka Kher, Vice Principal Ma’am, Ms. Inderpreet Kaur Ahluwalia, Educational Supervisor Ma’am, Ms. Jyotsna Vishwakarma and all the other members of the management committee.

In a nostalgic and emotionally charged atmosphere, Citation Ceremony for Class XII students was organised with great enthusiasm and zeal. In the beginning, the students were high spirited and overjoyed but as the event began to unfold, the realisation dawned upon them that the school they have been so attached with was going to be their school no more and this made them solemn.

The program started with the school song followed by giving away suitable appreciation and befitting titles to the students by our Principal Ma'am, Mrs. Alka Kher amidst the thunderous clapping and cheer.  It was really heart rending and touching to see the students trying to veil the tears of separation behind innocent smiles.

VINTAGE CLASSICS - a mosaic of timeless music, dance and plays

A thing of beauty is joy forever, its loveliness increases, it will never pass int nothingness.

The world of art is ever changing and ever evolving. In this dynamic and volatile ocean of time, art and its various forms get washed away. However, some art never grows old, and never fades away. It is a moment that stands still forever. ‘Classics’ are an epitome of such form of art. Being the torchbearers of this world, it is imperative that every generation is acquainted with classics. It is a legacy that ought to be passed from one generation to the next. Vintage Classics was the very theme of the grand program that was hosted by St. Mark’s Sr. Sec. Public School, Janakpuri on 28 December.

It was an endeavour by the students of Classes VI-IX to make the audience see the world of classics through colorful, filtering lenses, ranging from black and white, to sepia. The performances revolved around the various forms of classic Art, starting with classic music, both Western and Indian, the Indian classic Chaturang ki Chaupal, classic dances like Rock n’ Roll, Salsa, Cha Cha Cha, Jazz etc and classic musical dance dramas- Tasher Desh and The Sound of Music. The program was indeed a mosaic of timeless classics. The august gathering received a warm welcome from the school’s principal, Mrs. Alka Kher. The school’s Chairman Mr. T. P. Aggarwal, Director Mrs Anjali Aggarwal and Manager Mr. Rahul Aggarwal, graced the occasion with their benign presence. With over 240 participants from classes VI-IX, the event reached a fruitful culmination with a vote of thanks being extended to all by the school’s Vice Principal Mrs. Inderpreet Kaur Ahluwalia.

FIT India Plogging Run was organised on October 1, 2019 for the students of Classes IV to VIII.

Vice-Principal, Mrs. Inderpreet Kaur Ahluwalia delivered a speech to discourage the use of single-use plastic and discussed the downsides of its usage.

Facts and figures were shared with the students highlighting how plastic has become a major source of pollution and how it is impacting our biodiversity. Students took a pledge to completely shun the use of single-use plastic.

Drawing competition was also conducted on the theme 'Single-use Plastic and its Hazards'. A lot of zest and zeal was seen in the students.

To spread further awareness among the masses, students, teachers, parents and volunteers gathered early morning in the school premises to conduct the FIT India Plogging Run on October 2, 2019.

Students participated wholeheartedly in cleaning up the computer lab, classrooms, windows, the garden and other areas in the school campus.

This endeavour was a part of the Swachh Bharat - Swachhta Pakhwada. The students were sensitized about the importance and the need to keep their environment clean. Their efforts were highly acknowledged and appreciated.

Are we ready to face emergencies like fire?
Yes we are...!!


A fire drill was conducted to practise how the school building would be evacuated in the event of a fire or other emergencies.

We ensured that people in the building are familiar with the sound of the fire alarm whilst they are at work. We timed the evacuation process to ensure that it is fast enough. Everyone was taken away from the building, in the playground after which the teachers did a headcount and ascertained that all students had been evacuated safely.

Medical Aids like stretchers and wheel-chairs are also available to help physically challenged students.

'Drop, Cover, and Hold'
