Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body. - Joseph Addison
To nurture an enduring love for reading, the DEAR (Drop Everything and Read) activity was conducted across Grades VI to X. Both students and teachers enthusiastically participated, immersing themselves in books of their choice and expressing their reflections through creative presentations. The activity not only helped cultivate meaningful reading habits but also encouraged young minds to connect deeply with the power of words and the joy of independent reading.
