School Festivals

Evening of Rhythm and Rhyme

As a culmination of the Seminar on Urdu Language and Culture, the school celebrates an Evening of Rhythm and Rhyme where our young (Class 11), singers, poets and instrumentalists perform for their parents, teachers and students. The singers train with their ustaads for months, practising ghazals, qawallis and various instruments like the tabla, the sitar, the violin etc. Simultaneously, the instructors for the Urdu Seminars guide them to write Urdu poetry and then help them to recite it in a mushaira form.

Rich Heritage of Sindhi Culture

Sindhi language and culture, rich as it is, has been somewhat neglected both as a tradition as well as a learning opportunity. C.A.S. has introduced Sindhi culture as a seminar for class 11 students in order to introduce Sindhi language and culture through music and the Sufi traditions of Sindh. As a culmination of the seminar, Sindhi Evening is held in mid-February, in which students who take the seminar present Sindhi music and Sindhi Folklore, while parents help with providing delicious Sindhi cuisine.

Bake Sale

One of the activities of Helping Hands is to organize an annual Bake Sale. With the help of the Parent Coordination Committee (PCC), Helping Hands arranges the food, manages the stalls and supervises all student activities. All parents, teachers and students are invited. Students have food, get their faces painted and participate in the various games organized for them. Helping Hands then utilizes the proceeds for different community projects.

Mufty Day

On this day, students are allowed, if they so choose, not to wear the school uniform and come to school dressed in casual clothes. They have to pay Rs 100 for the 'right to wear' their casual clothes. The proceeds from the Mufty Day go to Helping Hands Trust.

Bonfire

The Junior Section has a tradition of an annual Bonfire. Held for Class 6 on the last day of school before the winter holidays begin, bonfire night is held on the school premises. Students stay in school overnight, and are involved in various activities ranging from night matches, to watching movies and cooking their dinner and then sleeping in school. Next morning, breakfast is cooked by mother volunteers for the students. After breakfast students go home.
