Vacation Enrichment Programme
Kindergarten-2
An Activity a Day, Keeps Boredom Away
VACATION ENRICHMENT PROGRAMME
Vacations are a great opportunity for parents and children to spend quality
time with each other. Parents’ relationship and bonding with their child
plays an integral part in shaping their personality and adds on to their well-
being. Parents know their child intrinsically and hence that can bring out
the best in their child.
Vacation Enrichment Programme (VEP) is planned to set your child on a
journey for joyful learning. It has been designed to give your child a chance
to explore, inquire and bridge the learning gaps. This will enable them to
practice the skills which are a pre-requisite for continuous learning. Two of
the greatest gifts we can give a developing child are positive self-esteem
and self-confidence. These holidays are a great chance for parents to
develop a relationship where the school and the parent community can work
together for children’s holistic development.
Be a part of this enrichment Programme as it has been designed to foster
your child’s learning experiences. Take an active interest and participate in
everything which your child is fascinated to talk about and show that you
care about their experiences and share an interest in all they do.
