School Emblem

Acknowledge the goals you want to to achieve

Success is not an overnight phenomenon,

Prepare for the future, not what is bygone,

Indulge completely in making yourself believe.

Remember your past, and keep learning,

Engage with positive thoughts, face your fears.

Prepare for a better tomorrow, my peers,

Experience the falls while you are yearning.

Remind yourself that you can go places,

Step up, rise and quit procrastinating,

Pursue the dreams that you have been seeing

Invigorate the zeal, that helps your chases.

Rewind, revisit but never resort to mistakes

Exchange your sweat for making you better

Instill confidence, that you can share later

Never give up, keep doing whatever it takes.

Successful people have at times, failed a lot,

Progress is when you make failure stepping stones

Instead of complaining, crying and sighing moans,

Rejuvinate the vigour, invoke that shaking thought

Excellence has three stages, Aspire, Inspire, Perspire

Smart Class

Smart classrooms are technology enhanced classrooms that foster opportunities for teaching and learning by integrating learning technology, such as computers, specialized software, audience, response technology and audio/visual capabilities.

Southside International School provides new age digital education solutions through smart learn classes in such a way that it holds the interest of the student and helps them to understand the concept better.

We have introduced digital learning in all classes using smart boards. We introduced NCERT published books and bring all the contents of CBSE curriculum to the screen. We are still on the look out to get more effective IT methodology to make class rooms more interactive.

Smart Classes are conducted by a teacher using a viewing screen that is attached to the projector. Students will assimilate the audio-visual information that is projected on the screen and learn about the topic.

Transport Facility

The need for safe passage of each child to school and back home is on paramount importance to us. To ensure safe travel, the school has its own fleet of school buses designed as per standards and manned by trained drivers and personnel sensitized to the need of small children. The Transport Services (optional) is operated by the school and a separate transport fee is charged for this. For supervision and monitoring a transport attendant is on board throughout the journey.

Mobile phones have been provided in each bus that ensures efficiency in terms of service and better communication in case of emergencies. Besides ensuring the implementation of the safety norms, all staff on the bus is well trained in first aid and emergency management.

Divisions and batches are allotted as per the transport requisitions put forth by the students as transport service is not available for a few batches. Kindly enquire with our transport department before finalizing with the admission process.

Abacus

Abacus education has consistently been considered as an established approach to improve brain. This form of education not only enables one to calculate in a manner similar to that of a calculator but also helps one in having an enhanced visualization power and a more efficient brain. This simple calculating device goes a long way in clearing the complex mathematical concepts clearly to the students, especially those who are slow learners.

‘Learn by fun’ technique always proves fruitful. Therefore Abacus, also called a ‘counting frame’ is well adopted for doing calculations in primary classes.

Southside International school provides such a abacus education to the children and enhance their visualization power and a more efficient brain.

Yoga

Yoga trains the mind and soul of the students. Students from KG to Std. X are taught Yoga in the school.

As a part of new scheme of pedagogy, we have yoga classes as a part of the regular schooling with syllabus.

Sanitary Incinerator Machine

It is much essential to have sanitary napkin incinerators at school. As per a recent survey many of the adolescent girls drop out their education due to the lack of menstrual knowledge and poor access to sanitation facilities at school. It is our fundamental right to provide basic sanitation facilities.

Education and awareness about menstrual hygiene, accessible to sanitary products and adequate sanitary facilities at school would improve the schooling experience. By placing the incinerators it is evident that girl children can attend and reach their full potential in schools. In the absence of incinerators the disposed napkins are dumped in the waste bins either flushed down in the toilets

Southside International school provides such hygiene and sanitation facility in our campus to provide our girl children will attend and reach their full potential in class activities and other events too. Thus we provide adequate sanitary facilities at school and provide the schooling experience.

Laboratory

The School has well equipped laboratories for Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Computer Science and Maths. Students are encouraged to use these laboratories to learn through experiments. Every year latest instruments, specimens, charts etc. are purchased for these laboratories. Today, high school science education aims to provide scientific literacy for all as part of a liberal education and to prepare students for further study, work, and citizenship. laboratories have been part of high school education for two centuries, yet a clear articulation of their role in student learning of science remains elusive.

Science Lab

Southside International School is proud to have a sophisticated Physics Laboratory with the latest facilities that equip the students to have hands on experience. The Flat-topped tables used as student workstations allow multiple arrangements and combinations for laboratory work and small-group activities. The equipment ranges from the commonly found lens, magnet, beam balance, spring balance and glass prism to the advanced apparatus like voltmeter, ammeter and resistors and spectrometers to name a few. The laboratory is also equipped with an Interactive board that allows the teachers to incorporate the latest technology in their lessons to arouse the interest and curiosity of the students.

It provides an opportunity to the students to understand and internalize the basic mathematical concepts through concrete objects and situations. It provides greater scope for individual participation in the process of learning and becoming autonomous learners.

A child can perceive a concept thoroughly only with the combination of theoretical teaching in a classroom and hands on experience in a lab. Math needs practice, interest and brainpower which are fostered by the Math lab. The Math Lab makes Math simple and fun for students. The lab is well equipped to demonstrate and elucidate any topic. It enables the teachers to demonstrate and reinforce Mathematical concepts. Hence, it helps in mental enhancement in areas of Math like Algebra, Arithmetic, Calculus, Geometry, Statistics, and Trigonometry etc.

Library

The library provides many children with their first chance to use and enjoy a library. The school library is a welcoming place for study and reading. The school library is to support the students and teachers by providing access to current, adequate and appropriate information resources. It is also to ensure that all the students, teachers and staff are effectively using the ideas and information. The library encourages the love of reading and development of student’s independent learning skills.

The Southside International School provides access to information not just to widen the horizons of the users’ knowledge but also to support a host of their learning activities that range from book learning and newspaper reading. Librarians are not just the gatekeepers here but the facilitators in a larger process aimed at improving the quality of life of the individual. We are driven by the motto to strive hard with commitment and dedication, which requires team spirit and tenacity to serve the strategic information requirements of the academic community on a continual basis pin-pointedly, exhaustively and expeditiously.

Water Purifier

The school has the facility of water purifier unit to provide the students with pure and hygienic drinking water. School was equipped with facility to process water – A reverse osmosis water treatment plant. The facility now provides treated drinking water to the students. The school is providing purified drinking water for all the students and for the said purpose, the school has installed five centralized Reverse Osmosis (RO) water purification plant of various capacities like 250 l/hr, 500 l/hr, 750 l/hr and 1000 l/hr installed in various buildings in the school. The said water purification plant eliminates contaminations from the water along with TDS and removes the odor and enhances the taste of water. Such water purification plants remove all unnecessary bacteria and virus from the water which is hazardous to health. The filtration process also removes the toxins and makes water clean, pure and fit for drinking. The entire system is automated and the purified drinking water is provided to all our students throughout the day through sufficient number of taps.

Classrooms

Schools play a powerful role in shaping students’ lifelong habits and behaviors. The classroom experience, in particular, is ripe with opportunities to seamlessly integrate physical activity and nutrition education into lessons and activities. In turn, healthy classroom activities improve classroom focus and behavior, and help decrease absenteeism.

The classrooms are bright and airy. The furniture and décor of each classroom at Southside International School has been designed for different student groups to facilitate improved teaching and learning. No section has more than 30 students. The classrooms at Southside International School are also equipped with modern technological teaching aids like projectors and smart boards. Use of cutting edge technology helps to make the class more interactive and the lessons more interesting.

Playground

The school playground is one of the most important places in our young students’ lives. From the time that children start preschool, all the way through the end of elementary school, the playground is the main place where they spend breaks and recess. Playground equipment isn&@8217;t there just for fun, it actually helps kids develop important motor skills and problem-solving skills. When kids have the opportunity to go out and get some fresh air, they are also developing important life skills along the way. The school playground allows them to climb, jump, swing, and slide. All of these movements are important building blocks of the gross motor skills that they will constantly need to use throughout their lives.

Our school playground has courts for volley – Ball, Basket Ball, Tennikoit, KhoKho and Badminton to enable the players to train themselves steadily and win the tournaments. There is a mini park for Tiny-Tots with See-Saw, Swing and Merry -go-Round.

Extra Curricular Activities
