  2. Clubs “Man must rise above the earth – to the top of the atmosphere and beyond – for only thus will he fully understand the world in which he lives.” Socrates One of the most enriching aspects of life at Bal Bharati is the eclectic variety of clubs that learners can choose to be a part of. These allow students to explore their varied interests while gaining hands on experience in activities that make learning fun. The clubs range from caring for the environment, learning photography, exploring mysteries of the universe to enriching life through the world of literature etc. These help to develop multi-dimensional skills and promote creativity by unleashing the imagination and interest of students beyond the realms of the ordinary and pre-defined curriculum. The clubs envisage to give wings to the dreams of learners, such as these . . . I dream of floating away on a cloud I dream of catching falling stars I dream of exploring the sea I dream of playing at Mars…
