Explore ‘N’ learn methods is a very significant and prominent aspect of the students tenure at NTS. Our school strongly believes that education is not confined merely to books, but towards practical knowledge of the world around us. As a part of the regular curriculum students along with their facilitators visit various real time working places of educational importance like Museums, Research Institutions, Botanical Gardens, Zoo, Science Exhibition, Industries, Reservoirs etc.

Students visiting different educational facilities learn more hands-on and interactive way than in a classroom – a welcome break in routine learning. A field trip can awaken the desire in a child to try new things and pursue previously unconsidered dreams, may be a spark new interests

and passions can arose in their tiny world. They believe what they see than to have vague idea in a closed enclosure like classroom.

A Field trip to Airport and Traffic signals: Its great fun when teacher exclaims “Its time to use everything you have pertaining to means of transportation kids!” Grade I teacher made this to them on 25 Oct 2011.
