At our school, we believe that education goes beyond textbooks and classroom learning. While academic excellence forms the foundation, our focus extends to nurturing well-rounded individuals prepared for the challenges of the real world. Through a variety of activities beyond academics, we aim to instill essential life skills, foster creativity, and build character. From sports and cultural programs to leadership opportunities and community service, these initiatives provide students with the platform to explore their passions, develop talents, and grow into confident, compassionate individuals.
Samudra Kavach: A STEM Solution to Oil Spills
Human activities have significantly contributed to environmental contamination, and oil spills are a critical issue that often goes unnoticed. Every year, hundreds of metric tons of oil leak into our oceans, poisoning marine ecosystems and causing the death of millions, if not billions, of marine organisms.
In response to this pressing problem, Samudra Kavach was developed by the students of Salwan Mayur Vihar as an innovative solution. This device leverages photosensitive sensors to detect oil spills and employs a water pump to deploy MSL-1, an eco-friendly oil dispersant. MSL-1 effectively minimizes the impact of oil on marine ecosystems, exponentially reducing its harmful effects.
This ingenious project secured the 2nd position in North India in the CBSE National Coding Challenge and was highly praised at the STEM Exhibition and Awards during the AICRA Awards, where it was also prominently displayed.
Cyber Security Program
Our school collaborates with the Delhi Police Cyber Cell to promote cyber safety and digital awareness. Regular workshops and the Cyber Warrior Program equip students with the knowledge and skills to navigate the online world responsibly. This initiative fosters a culture of cybersecurity, empowering students to recognize and mitigate online threats.

National Mathematics Day
On Saturday, 21 December 2024, the Mathematics Department celebrated National Mathematics Day in honour of Shri Srinivasa Ramanujan.
The event showcased students’ exceptional mathematical talents with abacus and Vedic math demonstrations, creative newsletters, and an inter-house mental math competition. The celebration was a resounding success, fostering a deeper appreciation for mathematics.
LINGO DAY
on 30 November 2024, the English faculty conducted JAM (Just A Minute) online speaking sessions for students of classes VI–VIII.
Students delivered compelling speeches on varied topics such as Online Classes vs. Classroom Learning, Physical Disabilities are not Barriers to Success, and Simple Actions for a Cleaner and Greener Future, among others. Each participant spoke confidently on their given topic for one minute, avoiding hesitation or repetition.
The JAM sessions proved to be an excellent platform for enhancing multiple skills. Apart from honing public speaking and time management abilities, students also developed critical thinking as they had to quickly organise their thoughts. Their listening skills too improved as they observed and learned from peers.
