Dear Students

Summer brings with it the ever smiling sun, fresh breeze, blossoming Flowers and HOLIDAYS!

When the sun is high and the heat is great, it is time to go for a vacation or pursue a recreation.

Vacations help to rejuvenate and develop an everlasting bond between you and your family. Make

optimum use of this time to cultivate your interest in co-curricular activities.

It will be great if you are able to find time to visit museums and monuments, learn new things,

explore new areas near your house, play indoor and outdoor games , read as many story books as you

can ,help your parents and grandparents, go for morning walk and play in the park in the evenings

during your long summer break.

We are giving you integrated and interesting activities and worksheets which you can do during the

noon time. Do them as instructed and submit your work after the vacation.

We would appreciate if your work is done by you only.

Wishing all of you a very enjoyable and fun-packed summer break!!!!!!

Warm Regards

To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if

for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted.

1)Holiday time is the time to relax and take it easy. People prefer to visit different places and enjoy

with their families.

Imagine you are a travel agent. Pick any 2 destinations (anywhere in the world). Prepare two travel

brochures depicting the place of tourists interest, the famous cuisines, area of the city, population, fare

of travelling, cost of accommodation, currency, budget etc to attract your potential clients. Also prepare

one week planner for each destination in the month of June. You can use colourful pastel sheets and

other decoration material to make your brochure attractive.
