Vivekanand Public School presents exhibition

Vivekanand Public School, Anand Vihar, hosted its annual exhibition Minerva to showcase the skills of students in projects.

The school believes that art must be integrated with the teaching and learning process of all academic subjects to reduce reliance on rote learning. The subject teacher collaborated with the art teacher to enrich the curriculum. The science department showcased how to reduce, reuse and recycle plastic bottles and cans.
