Chess Room

There is a need to provide children accurate and authentic information and help them to construct knowledge and acquire life skills, so that they cope up with the concerns related to the process of growing up, counter stress and strains and cope up with examination stress.

Yoga

Yoga practice contributes to the overall development of the child and various studies have shown that it contributes to flexibility and muscular fitness and also corrects postural defects among school children. Yoga not only invigorate and refreshes the body, it also activates and boosts the performance of the mind and at the same time play a great role in disciplining the whole person.

‘A place where peace prevails.’ In the hustle bustle of school life, a place where students naturally calm down is the Yoga Room. The room requires no furniture or equipment; except for positive vibrations and a non-material ambience. The vibrant charts, illustrating the different ‘yogasanas’, and the blue and red yoga-mats help children dive into the profundity of their minds, seeking eternal bliss or ‘Ananda.’

Football

A well woven academic set up at the school presents an ideal climate for students to grow and balance their aspirations be it academic or co-curricular. Laying an unrestricted plan for Sports and Physical Education, the vision is best represented with programmes framed exclusively at the campus.

The football team of St. Thomas’ School Dwarka is one of the best teams in Delhi-NCR and many of our students play the sport at not just National but International level as well.

Taekwondo

Physical exercises help to inculcate discipline. Every game or sport has its own set of rules. One has to follow them scrupulously.
Taekwondo is a Korean martial art and the national sport of South Korea. In Korean, tae means "to strike or break with foot"; kwon means "to strike or break with fist"; and do means "way", "method", or "path". Thus, taekwondo may be loosely translated as "the way of the hand and the foot." It combines combat techniques, self-defence, sport, exercise, and in some cases meditation and philosophy.

The room is equipped with mats, fan-pads, power-pads, chest guards, head-guards, shin-guards, arm-guards and Taekwondo kits.

Aesthetically trained by the two coaches, students of our school have participated in the National Games, CBSE Championships and SDFI.
