to give students opportunities to collaborate, influence and lead.
The school provides a conducive and creative environment for the
holistic development of every child, so that they learn and respect
Indian culture and traditions. Talented, versatile and well trained
faculty members from different art forms, guide, train and motivate
the amateur artists to explore their hidden talents and subsequently
nurture them to transform into skilled performers.

DANCE

Students with a genuine desire to learn a variety of dance
styles, forms and techniques are not only given training but also
encouraged to choreograph their own dance, under the able
guidance of a professional dance teacher.

MUSIC

Music is a vital part in the curriculum at SIRS and ample opportunities
are provided to students who wish to develop an aptitude for music.
The music department of SIRS has well-equipped classrooms with a

wide range of instruments, a state of the art lab, spacious practice
rooms and several performance spaces. Students are introduced to an
extensive palette of skills, cultures, contexts, composition strategies,
performance opportunities and the sheer joy of making music
together furthers enhances their abilities. The multiple opportunities
include concerts, musicals, operas, assemblies and matinee recitals.
Within the framework, students continue with music making and
performing, benefitting from music as a vehicle for communicating
with each other and the world. This helps them build a broad musical
repertoire by learning part-songs and canons from different cultures
and time periods. At the same time, students develop their aural
perception, analysis, musical literacy and composing skills while
studying the contexts of music history and the structures of music
theory.

DRAMATICS

SIRS seeks to foster a lifelong love and participation in theatrical
arts. This is done by offering a number of educational opportunities
for students, whether they seek to enhance their confidence in
oral expression, develop recreational performing talents, or focus
on applying these skills professionally. All students deserve an
opportunity to grow through exploration and experimentation in the
field of theatre, hence they are not limited at any level of coursework
and an effort is made to involve as many students as possible both
on- and off stage in extracurricular productions.
