Sports in Alok

Sport in Alok aims at motivating every student to explore, engage and excel in a sport of their interest. It also develops a student’s understanding of health. A wide range of sports activities is offered in our curricular and co-curricular programs which run throughout the year. Students train under-qualified staff and renowned coaches to achieve their highest potential. Basketball, football, and cricket are the most popular team sports in the school. Individual pursuits like horse riding, swimming, roller skating, athletics, and chess allow students to challenge themselves and develop skills through carpentry and mechanics. Students enthusiastically participate in racket sports like badminton and table tennis. Judo and Karate are the combat sports offered in school. Students are provided with opportunities to participate in inter-house and inter-school competitions. The school also organizes in-house events like the athletic meet and the swimming competition.

The safety of students at our school is a matter of high concern for us. The school is served well by a full team of security staff, twenty-four hours a day. The school also uses various other security tools to ensure careful monitoring of the premises. All visitors are required to present ID at the front entrance before entering the school premises.

The school also has well-developed plans to deal with any emergency that could arise, either at school or on school trips. We have a comprehensive emergency procedures handbook, that entails all the details on how to deal with any natural disasters or other emergencies when at-hand. Please note that we inform all parents about what we expect from them if an emergency arises.

Please don’t be offended if you are asked to wear your ID card, but accept this as part of a caring and responsible organization, as of course, your children are our first priority.

“Your child’s wellbeing is important to us”.  Keeping this in mind we have a spacious cafeteria that serves wholesome, nutritious, and well-balanced food. We firmly believe that a healthy mind grows and functions productively only in a healthy body.

We have a world-class on-site kitchen that caters daily hot meals for the entire school students, teaching staff, and auxiliary staff. A special meal plan for meeting the nutrition of all is designed by an expert nutritionist personally. 

Nepalese and international vegetarian cuisine is served and we take special care to have meals prepared in an allergen-free kitchen. 

Provision has been made by R.O treatment systems and UV Filters for supplying drinking water in the school premises. We discourage use of plastic bottles for storage of drinking water and therefore have provided drinking water fountains on the entire campus.

Every curriculum and teaching needs the strong support of an effective school library. Alok’s library is the hub for learning and teaching resources for the entire school community. The primary and secondary school libraries play a vital role in enhancing the skills of learners and supporting the needs of the professional development of educators to empower lifelong learning. The library collection aims to promote and support the development of transdisciplinary skills, international-mindedness, and concept based learning across the school.

The school promotes E-learning through the vast collection of the E-library situated in the school library. Students learn to be active, compassionate, and lifelong learner while they explore the wide range of resources in the library which includes materials such as:

• Picture books
• Junior fiction
• Non-Fiction books
• CDs & DVDs (educational & recreational)
• Newspapers
• Teaching Resource
• Online research databases
Each class has one library session every week. Library books are borrowed from the home reading section for short information literacy or reading development. Our collection of books includes numerous titles from various genres – graphic novels, comic books, horror, historical fiction, realistic fiction, non-fiction, mythology, value based books etc. which promote a lifelong love for reading. The non-fiction titles nurture the curious minds by supporting the research needs of the inquirers.

 

The School Infirmary is looked after by a qualified nurse. Medical check-ups of students are regularly carried out and a record is maintained. If the doctor is of the opinion that a child needs special medical attention, the parents are informed of the same.

Parents are requested not to send sick children to school for attending classes or appearing for examinations. This is in the interest of the child and at times his/her classmates as well. Medical certificates must be submitted so that the child’s results are not affected.

Students suffering from infectious diseases such as conjunctivitis, dermatitis, scabies, etc. should not be sent to school until they have fully recovered.

“Parents are not supposed to send medicines along with the child without prior permission from the Principal.

Transportation is an option most students take advantage of. There is regular bus transport for children with stops in the main points in the city. Children have to take the nearest existing stops as there will be no change in the routes that ply. We have 7 routes across the city and your child will be allotted to the suitable route upon transportation request.

All buses are fitted with GPS so that the school always knows where our buses are located.
