My pleasure to welcome you to our school website.
A network of DAV Institutions speaks volumes of its popularity and the school at New Shimla is a significant matrix in the network. The school has established its identity as a noteworthy, progressive school because of the astonishing academic achievements, the commendable cultural performances, the mesmerizing musical renditions and above all the striking accomplishments in sports. We aim at holistic development of the students to make them lifelong learners by developing their skills as the academic achievers, keen collaborative learners, complex and progressive thinkers, effective communicators and principled citizens.
We believe in secularism, nationalism and patriotism and ensure quality education, health care, character building, encouragement of the meritorious students, and special care of the children.
Our Curriculum is blended with Vedic cultural traditions, progressive open and self-assuring eternal ethical values. We work vigorously, ceaselessly and patiently to scale the new heights. I repose my faith in the hard work, perseverance and dedication of the teachers and the students who had been championing the cause of DAV New Shimla. The support of the parents and their faith in us has made the institution grow in the eyes of bystanders. I am confident of the present and can see ahead a bright scintillating future.
DAV follows the CBSE syllabus –a synergistic mix of sports, music, dramatics, dance and computer education with academic classes. In the Pre-Primary section the curriculum is a fine amalgamation of less work and lots of play. The classroom sessions are interactive. We move towards achieving high academic standards through seminars, workshops and by inviting well-known experts in their field to give presentations and demonstrations to the students. Games and sports are an integral part of the curriculum. Inter-house competitions are organized. Professional coaches for various games are engaged. Regular physical exercises and yoga are a part of the school curriculum and the students are trained to participate in state, national and international championships. Classical music and dance performances are added attractions.
The School is administered through various departmental Co-ordinators. The teachers are exposed to various reorientation and refresher courses that help in chiselling their proficiency and efficiency. I am proud of having a team of dedicated and qualified teachers. Our Library is a treasure-house of knowledge. All students have free access to the library. It is equipped with a large number of video and audio cassettes. We have State of Art laboratories for Physics, Chemistry and Biology. The computer laboratory is the pride of the school which ensures that the students grow with a keen understanding of technology. The use of multimedia is common, extensively used to make learning interesting and easy.
Our Hostel is home away from home where the borders are empowered with moral and spiritual wealth so that they face the world assuringly. In the hostel, wholesome food with the required criterion is served to the residents. High standards of hygiene are maintained to ensure healthy bodies and minds.
DAV New Shimla has acquired a prominent position among the schools of North India. Our alumni have done well in every field and have made us proud because we believe in producing a nursery of such human beings who are socially integrated, culturally aware, ethically and spiritually sound and technically competent.
We believe that only such humans are fit to serve the nation as responsible citizens and we have constantly been striving hard to shape up such human beings.
May this institution grow in leaps and bound.
