“People who use time wisely spend it on activities that advance their overall purpose of life”
As children step out of the safe nests of their parents, they discover new colours of life. There are numerous shades of those standard colours. Similarly, as they enter a school, they discover new shades of themselves too. A school is a place where a child explores various facets of life. They get an opportunity to explore new areas and new challenges. Personal Development Programme (PDP) offers our Dipsites an opportunity to exhibit their abilities according to their interests. These clubs are an important component of the curriculum to develop students’ personality.
