Their work reflected a deep understanding of the importance of maintaining digital hygiene and fostering a secure online environment.

The activity not only enhanced students’ awareness of cyber safety but also encouraged creative expression and peer-to-peer learning. It successfully instilled a sense of digital responsibility and aligned with the core objectives of the SEWA programme.
World Book Day

Books open doors to imagination, knowledge, and wisdom. Through reading, students can explore the past, navigate the present, and shape the future. In alignment with this spirit, Delhi Public School – Bopal celebrated World Book Day on 23 April 2025, honouring authors, books, characters, and the lifelong joy of reading through a range of exciting literary activities.

Students from classes I to V enthusiastically delved into the world of books through a series of engaging and interactive activities. As part of Book Explorers, they learned about the different parts of a book before enjoying dedicated reading time. In Book Buddies, they shared their favourite books and summaries with classmates, fostering a love for storytelling and peer learning. They also showcased their creativity by designing vibrant bookmarks featuring inspiring quotes, demonstrated their literary knowledge in the exciting Bookers Quiz, and sharpened their language skills through a variety of fun and effective vocabulary-building activities.

The middle and senior school students experienced the celebration with a creative twist. They created Pictorial Depictions, conveying storylines through artistic expression. In Page Tabs, they crafted personalized bookmarks inspired by their favourite characters. They also enjoyed Literary Pictionary, illustrating book titles and scenes, watched a motivational video, and wrote meaningful captions reflecting their takeaways. Their creativity shone through in Ink and Imagination, where they designed posters capturing the essence of reading.

A special highlight of the day was the Author’s Meet organized by the Library Department for the students of classes V–VIII. Renowned academician and author Dr. Indira Nityanandam—retired Principal of Smt. R.R. Mehta Arts College, former Director of Bharatiya Bhasha Sanskriti Sansthan (Gujarat Vidyapith), and visiting faculty at IIM and EDI—interacted with students on the theme Books: Our Best Companions. She spoke passionately about how reading strengthens language skills and enriches imagination, inspiring students to make books their lifelong companions.
