The students of class VIII along with a group of five teachers headed by Mr. Pandey embarked on a five day educational tour to Gir Forest, the last home of Asiatic lions, on 17th December2019. The tour was not only educational as they got to know the names of various birds locally found but also adventurous as they got the opportunity to trek in the hills of Saurashtra and closely spot a wide variety of flora and fauna. They also got the opportunity to visit the famous Somnath temple and pray to the almighty. The students were full of zest and zeal as they viewed the panoramic Jamjhir waterfall to cool out the day. Nights were entertaining with campfire and other activities. The icing on the cake was the dance performance by the Indo- African community called Siddis.

Vatsalya – Loving kindness
Here we have vouched to train our students towards secularism. So every religion is respected and every festival celebrated.
Therefore, come December and we all start invoking the Christmas feeling in ourselves and in our students. Soaking in the spirit of Christmas our students of Vatsalya celebrated the festival of Christmas on the 24th of December, 2019.
The school took off with preparing the Christmas decorations, like the Christmas tree, the mistletoe, cards, the santa masks and caps. The students sang melodious carols and danced beautifully to wish their teachers and classmates. The significance of the festival was explained to the students through the musical enactment. The programme was finally brought to an end with everyone dancing around the Christmas tree.
The management and Principal greatly appreciated all the efforts put in by the teachers towards training the students not only in singing, dancing and dramatizing but inculcating the feeling of oneness.The boundless joy of celebrating the festival was visible on the faces of all the children.
