Spell-Bee competition: The school also has a spell bee competition for students from class 3 onward. The children have to learn a list of spellings over a period of one month. The level of difficulty increases with each class. All the children go through a selection round and on the day of the competition the selected children have to spell the words being called out by the judges. The classes are divided into three categories – junior, sub-junior and senior and a winner is announced for each category.

Classes 3 and above have Inter House competitions: Students from class 3 and above are part of one of the four houses and have opportunity to participate in inter-house competitions.
