The school organizes sessions by famous astronomers and field trips from time to time not only to develop scientific temper among students but also to understand the features of different numbers of the solar system and the basic concepts of science used in astronomy. To arouse the interest in observing astronomical events and the phenomenon of eclipses, fun filled stargazing sessions are held frequently which give them an opportunity to observe the sky together with their peers, share observation experience and and hear their stories of observation and interest areas. It not only gives them a chance to develop their skills to use telescope but also to identify various celestial bodies like stars, constellations and planets in the real night sky.
