Reading Time:
At OSCS weekly visit to the Library is arranged and in each class students are given reading time to develop interest in reading. This activity is also followed by story telling by teachers or description of story by students.
Stage Performances :
Public speaking plays a very important role in the personal development of a child. Being able to face the crowd and covey what we need to say is a great skill. At OSCS children learn this skill through many activities that involve performing in front of an audience.
1. Recitation of Quran:
OSCS students learn to recite the Quran and offer their skills at assembly time, various functions and other events. Nazra being a regular subject, these students are taught to recite various Surahs (chapters of the Quran) in a beautiful manner. Students also memorize portions of the Quran.
2. Hadith recitation: The sayings of Prophet Muhammad (May peace and blessings be upon him) are taught to students of OSCS for improving morals values and learning wisdom from these golden words. Students are taught to recite these sayings in Arabic language and their translation in Urdu in front of audiences.
3. Skits and Plays: Every Friday at OSCS the children of different classes perform skits, role plays and many other activities for the school. This involves topics covered in their classes and lessons gained from them. Students not only gain confidence but also provide a healthy competition for their peers.
4. Poem performance: At OSCS we also use Iqbal's poetry for the personal development of our students. Students perform on Iqbal's poems and draw useful lessons from them to apply in their day to day life.
