Once again, its that time of the year, when one evaluates the achievements, recapitulates the work done and measures the success earned. At DPS Vasant Kunj I feel we have achieved a landmark ! From a micro chip, five seasons ago, the school has evolved into a Mega entity now. As we progress to the next millenium, DPS Vasant Kunj as we envision will be one of the most modern schools of the 21st century. We shall redeem its pledge to provide quality education, comprehensive in nature, geared for the growth of intellect and which instills strength of character, for the future generations of our country.
I also think that at the root of the progress and evolution of DPS Vasant Kunj is our commitment to inculcate amongst our students, the ethics and the right code of conduct and a value system inherently Indian; symbolic of our rich heritage and culture; fused with a global outlook. These ingredients, I feel, are necessary for achieving academic excellence, overall personality development and are the basis for character formation.
The result, is for all to see. In keeping with our vision, purpose and our aim, we at DPS Vasant Kunj, provide a unique infrastructure and landscape requisite for the 21st century oriented educational institution.
The school currently has four different blocks, two each for the junior and senior wing respectively which are most aesthetically and ergonomically designed to suit students at all levels. We have reached another milestone on the road to success. Our hostel which has most modern facilities to cater to students from all over the country, reinforces our aim to provide quality education amidst sylvan environments, as an idyllic background, for an ideal learning and educative process. Inclusive to this, is the provision of two sets of fully equipped laboratories for physics, chemistry, biology and computer science. In addition, two sets of rooms for fine arts, dance and music are provided. Supplement to these are the additional facilities of mini-theatre, amphi-theatre, three libraries, three multimedia laboratories one with dedicated Internet Lease Line connection and another with Satellite V-sat connection for enriching the knowledge and providing information to our students and teachers.
Our school subscribes to the adage, a healthy body houses a healthy mind; so for sports and recreation, the school has two basketball courts,a lawn tennis court, an international standard cricket pitch and a football field.Hence, our school is poised for a quantum leap to the 21st Century.
An institution cannot be progressive if it moves in isolation. We at DPS Vasant Kunj have firm faith in EQUITY WITH EXCELLENCE and to fulfil our commitment to the society we have opened our doors to meritorious but visually challenged students who want to study in the main stream. At present we have nine such students who are receiving free education. Another step in the cause of the society is the DPS Vasant Kunj Shiksha Kendra which started functioning in July 2003. Our Shiksha Kendra is run in the school premises itself in the afternoon shift and currently 120 girls from the underpriviliged section of the society are getting free education along with free books, school bag and uniform.
I take this opportunity to thank all the parents who have helped us in this endeavour and I also congratulate our staff and students for their hard work and commitment to this cause.
I hope, with the combined effort of my team, goodwill of our friends and blessing of our patrons, our school will continue to evolve consistently.
