FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK 2025-2026

Dear Parents,

Greetings! Welcome to the session 2025-26.

At Delhi Public School Nigahi, we believe that education is not merely about acquiring knowledge but about fostering a well-rounded, value-driven, and future-ready individual.

In alignment with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, we are committed to providing a holistic learning environment that nurtures creativity, critical thinking, and life skills alongside academic excellence.

Swami Vivekananda once said, "The education which does not help the common mass of people to equip themselves for the struggle of life, which does not bring out strength of character, a spirit of philanthropy, and the courage of a lion—is it worth the name?" Inspired by this vision, we aim to empower students with skills that go beyond textbooks, preparing them to be responsible global citizens.

In the upcoming academic session, we shall focus on experiential learning, competency-based education, and a multidisciplinary approach to ensure that our students gain practical knowledge and real-world problem-solving abilities.

We encourage you to join hands with us in this transformative journey by fostering curiosity, resilience, and ethical values at home. Together, we can shape a future where our children grow into confident, capable, and compassionate individuals.

With strong support from NCL and true guidance from CBSE and DPS Society we shall keep growing and move from strength to strength and provide your wards then best that any good educational institution can offer.

We are extremely grateful to NCL for providing us with not only more class Rooms but also a state of art Auditorium. This will surely enhance our standards in all fronts.

Please develop the habit of going through the Almanac on regular basis and help your ward to reap the benefit of all the competitions that have been lined up for him/her to grow in the right direction.

Looking forward to a fruitful academic year ahead!

By keeping the huge demand in mind, NCL is constructing extra classrooms for adding third section from Bal Vatika to X from the session 2025-26.

“Let the light of knowledge dispel the darkness of ignorance prevailing in our lives.”

FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK 2023-2024

Dear Parents,

Welcome to the session 2023-2024.

On 25th August 2023 our school shall complete 25 years of establishment.

The idea of having a DPS was initiated by Mr. J.P. Singh, Chief General Manager, NCL, Nigahi Project way back in 1996.

The site was visited upon by Mr. Salman Khurshid the then President of DPS Society and Mr. Narendra Kumar the Member Education of DPS Society.

Delhi Public School Nigahi had the privilege of growing under the Chairmanship of ; Justice N.N. Goswamy, Mr. Narendra Kumar, Professor B.P. Khandelwal, Mr. V.K. Shunglu, Dr. (Mrs.) Sharada Nayak, Mr. Pramod Grover and now under Mr. Ravi Vira Gupta.

Many of our students have proved their mettle and are holding good positions. They are into Indian Administrative Services, Judicial Services, Medical, Engineering, Sports, Google, Facebook, Apple, Infosys and have spread throughout the world.

More than 10 of our ex-teachers have become Principals, HMs of various reputed schools like DPS, DAV, ABPS and are doing great there.

Parents have remained a great source of strength for us in our march towards this growth.

As part of DPS Nigahi Board we feel committed towards this nation in general and towards the NCL (Mega Ratna Company) in particular whose children we are mainly catering to.

I feel humbled to heave had the opportunity of being a part of this institute for all these years.

Along with one of the most dedicated, efficient and progressive both teaching and non teaching staff I firmly believe that in the coming years too we shall attain many more milestones and will keep providing the best educational environment to the students entrusted to us.

We are grateful to NCL for upgrading the infrastructure of the school through both renovation and further expansion of the same.

Students of the school are also taken through highly organized Inter School Competitions by HRDC, DPS Society, CBSE & State Board.

Please motivate and guide your wards to participate in Inter House, Intra Class Competitions, Inter School Competitions and other meets organized from time to time by DPS Society, State Education Board because it is through these competitions that holistic development of Body, Mind, Head & Soul takes place.

Let's all perform our duties by keeping the following lines of Stephen Grellet in mind

"I shall pass the way but once; Any good that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being; Let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, For I shall not pass this way again."

Please make a habit of checking the Whatsapp group of your wards class group for necessary information provided by the Class & Subject Teacher and also keep going through the Almanac.

I would like to end with the following lines :
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.

FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK 2022-2023

Dear Parents,

Welcome to the session of 2022-2023.

We all need to feel blessed and privileged for having the opportunity of greeting each other in the post Covid-19 times.

The entire world had been brought down to the knees by the mighty Micro Virus. At one stage it appeared that the entire world of ours would collapse, but then thanks to the Scientists and the leaders who discovered the vaccines for the Covid 19 Virus and managed to get almost the entire population of the world vaccinated respectively and thereby saved the world from the clutches of the pandemic monster. In fact, what we need to be grateful is the 'Knowledge' and the 'Managerial Skills' that the human beings have developed over the past that had saved us from the situation.

Time and again God shows us the importance of 'Knowledge' and 'Managerial Skills' which each one of us should be more than willing to 'gain' and 'learn'.

We at DPS Nigahi always remain focused in enabling the children entrusted to us to gain both the 'Knowledge' and master the 'Life Skills'.

To reap full benefit of educating your wards in DPS, please ensure the following :

• Your ward remains regular in his / her attendance and submission of set tasks so that he/she gains the knowledge
• Remains respectful towards the teachers, friends and society.
• Respects Public property.
• Participates in Activities, and Intra Class / Inter House Competitions, Outside Competitions which are meticulously planned and executed for developing the 'Life Skills' of the students.

With your cooperation, assistance of our sponsors NCL Singrauli, guidance of our Board (CBSE), DPS Society, New Delhi and State Education Board we are bound to do well.

We express our commitment to provide our best and to make your children confident, courageous, committed, consistent and great communicators for their entire lives.

Please go through this Almanac regularly and ensure that your child carries it to school every day.
