In line with Bagless days policy of NEP 2020, the students of classes VI to VIII of Delhi Public School participated in various activities on 22nd and 24th May 2023. This policy is a fun-filled way of introducing skill subjects and vocational education right from the school level and also promotes local artisans and Indian traditional art forms. For the middle school students, the prospect of coming to school without their bags besides learning something new, was enough to make them beam from ear to ear. The children were agog with excitement and full of hopeful expectation to learn diverse art forms.The days were divided into separate sessions on Vegetable Printing Activity, Pottery workshop, Tie and Dye workshop, Finger puppets, table laying- napkin folding, table setting and table etiquettes, Sandwich Making, Learning to sew a button, Quilling, in Bookmark Making activity based on Mandala art.
The highlight of the bagless days was the talent hunt show which provided the children with a platform to showcase their hidden talents. Students and parents both were equally appreciative of the idea of having such fun-filled days away from their books and look forward to the next set of bagless days.

In accordance  with the visionary and progressive  New Education Policy of 2020 that highlights the importance  of art integration in schools, a pendant making activity for the occasion of Mother’s Day was done by the students of the middle school of Delhi Public School, Chandigarh.  The activity aimed at giving the students’ hands-on experience besides creating joyful classrooms. The purpose of the activity was explained to the students and they were given a brief on how the activity would be conducted.

There was excitement in the air as students got ready with the first step that was mixing of two kinds of clay. Each student then took a small portion and then gave a round, circular, triangular etc shape to the clay as per his/her choice. The clay was then left to set. The next step was painting the pendant with a base colour. The following day, students began painting different designs on the pendant. The students had a free hand and made a variety of shapes and designs. While some made abstract patterns others painted stars, sea, trees, worli art etc. The beautiful array of designs was a sight to behold. Finally, the pendant was given finishing touches  and a beaded string was put in  the hole. The students wrote beautiful messages on a card and mounted their pendant on  the card. It was heartening to see teamwork, coordination and cooperation among the students while doing this activity.

This experiential learning  will go a long way in  helping  students grow holistically.
