Healthy Minds & Healthy Body
KOTHIYA SOCIETY FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AND RESEARCHMidday Meals
SRKRSS believes that every student requires a healthy body to have a healthy mind. Every day, schools provide a nutritious and sumptuous mid-day meal which comprises of rice, dahl (lentils) and one vegetable curry. Students may have as many servings as they like. The meal environment is also very important to SRKRSS & KOTHIYA’s. Staff and older students take turns serving and ensure that food is being wasted. Everyone, from senior teachers to nursery students, eats together and start the meal with a Sanskrit chant that gives thanks.
Uniforms
Each student is provided with two sets of uniforms. The idea of the uniform is to promote a sense of equality amongst all students and reduce distractions and comparisons. Cleanliness and hygiene are also promoted through daily uniform checks.
Textbooks
KOTHIYA’s & SRKRSS follows the State Board. Every year, students receive textbooks for all their subjects. One set of notebooks is also included for each subject. Students are supplemented with books, published privately, in the primary section and government publications in senior classes. Students are able to understand and follow the content with the teacher’s guidance. The books also include a CD, Pen drives for Soft skills development. This helps students learn communication skills by listening and speaking through the CD, Pen drives.
Meditation and Yoga
KOTHIYA’s & SRKRSS believes that just physical nourishment is not enough. Mental, emotional and spiritual nourishment is also an important part of a daily healthy diet. Daily meditation and yoga practice with students and staff alike help promote an environment of well-being. Expert yoga and meditation facilitators are regularly invited to KOTHIYA’s & SRKRSS schools to help support these sessions and create a truly holistic atmosphere where students and staff thrive.
