Department Report |
| |
|
|
The Languages department plays an important role in Khalsa as it functions to impart knowledge which enables students to express themselves adequately in English, a second language to our children and a compulsory examination subject.
Not everyone fully understands the power of words, whether they be written or spoken. Students go through the motion of learning languages without realizing the full potential of this medium if mastered effectively, language can be an invaluable tool for all occasions. But if language skills are not satisfactorily developed, we are producing social misfits. These are the reasons for our work as language teachers.
The nine teachers attached to the Department are doing a wonderful job of teaching the broad language and literature syllabus and making the lessons enjoyable and meaningful.
The Department aims to bring about the overall development of the child. With this in mind, we participate in all national and international competitions. In our quest to develop the creative talents of the students, we established an English club.
At this juncture, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the hardworking teachers of the Department for their cooperation and tireless efforts in maintaining and improving previous academic records.
My message to our parents “Play an active role in children’s education and encourage reading”. |
