Dear Students,
Summer break is the best time to rejuvenate
and unwind. Let it not only serve as a time to
rest, revise and play, but also give yourselves
the reason to be in the company of friends,
family and relatives, travel, explore and
introspect.
Remember the following through your vacays,
to keep yourself refreshed-
Spend quality time with friends and
family.
Exercise and play keep you fit and
active. Surmount the playground each
evening!
Develop a hobby. Read, sing, dance,
research, collect valuables, or just learn
new things.
Volunteer to help your parents, siblings
or friends.
Study and revise daily. Take out time to
complete your assignments. Do not
delay or postpone work.
Be productive but remember to relax!
