National Heritage @Delhi

School is a place where students discover themselves. They realize their potential and perfect the skills required to be responsible citizens of India. What is an individual without their roots? A student should connect to the roots and culture of India to discover themselves.

We at Adriel High school believe that they should know about their ancestors, where they came from, how they lived, their values, entertainment, unique skills, resource utilization, shortcomings, and how a diverse group came together to fight colonial rule, etc during their school life. Our curriculum integrates Indian heritage lessons into the curriculum throughout the year. Each year, they focus on a state of India and explore it over the course of academic session.

This year, various co-curricular activities, interhouse competitions, school display boards, dance, song, and art and craft activities centered around Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Students learned about flora and fauna, geographical features, the island's aboriginal tribes, its association with the National Freedom Movement, Cellular Jail, and its history.

Similarly, last year, Sikkim was the topic of the year. The school aims to cover all states of India so that students understand the rich cultural heritage of these areas, respecting the diversity of the country. As students learn the dance and song of the region, they inevitably pick up the local words and language.

Our school also integrates multiple art forms and cultural crafts of foreign countries . We try and incorporate one folk dance, song, art, and craft from any foreign country. The goal is for students to understand how India has adopted the cultural heritage of other parts of the world, embodying the Sanskrit phrase "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam," which means "The World Is One Family."

The school hopes that its students become the best global citizens of tomorrow, remaining lifelong learners and leading successful lives as confident individuals.
