          On 3rd June , Head of School , Dr Manisha Sharma,  conducted an engaging workshop on emotional well being, self awareness  and social competence for teachers and  students of class XII.

Based on the tenets of Cognitive behavioural Therapy, the workshop  gave very  practical and reflective suggestions to generate positive emotions in any challenging situation.
