About DPSG Sushant Lok

In line with the vision of a cleaner and greener India, students of DPSG Sushant Lok actively participated in the Swachh Bharat Campaign on 2nd October 2024, commemorating the birth anniversaries of Mahatma Gandhi and Lal Bahadur Shastri. 

The day began with an inspiring rally where our students enthusiastically spread awareness about cleanliness, carrying posters and raising slogans for a cleaner environment. To further contribute to the environment, a plantation drive was conducted within the school premises, where students planted saplings, promoting sustainability and a greener future.  

Students also engaged in a creative poster-making session, beautifully showcasing their ideas about cleanliness and responsibility. Their talent and commitment to the cause were truly commendable!  

In honor of Mahatma Gandhi and Lal Bahadur Shastri, a special session was held, highlighting their contributions to India’s independence and their emphasis on cleanliness and simplicity. It was followed by a movie screening that reflected Gandhiji’s philosophy, inspiring students to adopt these principles in their daily lives. Through these activities, our learners took a step closer to contributing to a cleaner India while remembering the values of our great leaders. 

Through their collective efforts and determination, the students of DPSG Sushant Lok not only celebrated the legacies of Gandhiji and Shastriji but also pledged to be torchbearers of change, working towards a cleaner, greener India for generations to come. 

Grandparents are the family’s greatest treasure, the founders of a loving legacy. As the strong foundation of every family, grandparents share unconditional love, kindness, patience, and wisdom, leaving an indelible mark on the lives of their grandchildren. 

In alignment with its belief in nurturing love, care and empathy, DPSG Sushant Lok commemorated these cherished bonds through a heartwarming celebration of Grandparents Day on 27th September 2024. 

The event began with the traditional lighting of the lamp ceremony, which filled the atmosphere with joy and positivity. The school principal, Ms. Ruchi Bhatia, warmly welcomed the parents and grandparents, delivering a heartfelt address that highlighted the special bond between a child and their grandparents. 

The learners of the Primary Wing captured the audience’s attention with a beautifully coordinated choir performance, their harmonious voices filling the air with grace. The tiny tots also delighted everyone with melodious songs, encouraging the audience to sing along. A graceful dance performance by these little ones brought radiant smiles to the audience, perfectly showcasing their budding talents.  

As the event progressed, students from the Senior Wing elevated the energy with their lively dance performances. The whole celebration was truly spectacular!  

Here's to the legacy of love that continues to shape us! Happy Grandparents Day

DPSG Sushant Lok, celebrated the ‘Kargil Vijay Diwas’ on 26^th July 2024 to commemorate India’s war victory and to pay tribute to the Kargil’s martyr who were the symbol of courage and sacrifice for safeguarding the borders of our country. It was this day in 1999, when India recaptured the heights of Kargil from Pakistani infiltrators, ending the 60-day ‘Operation Vijay’ successfully. Indian soldiers showed tremendous courage and fought till the end to recapture the Kargil outposts from the Pakistanis.

The young minds of the primary wing of DPSG, Sushant Lok, commemorated the day with speeches on bravery of soldiers, sang patriotic songs and filled the entire atmosphere with patriotism. Through a skit they explained the significance of ‘Kargil Vijay Diwas’ to the students, followed by inspirational and emotional videos of the war, which made us feel proud of our soldiers and our country. Teachers, students and parents together paid homage to the soldiers who lost their precious life by keeping a silence for 1 minute. Patriotism is a social value and its feeling when inculcated at the school level ensures that students become responsible citizens of the nation. Following is the glimpse of the activities of the day.

CUET 2022 Workshop conducted by Dr. Shunil Tripathi

Dear Parents and Guardians,

1. I write to you, to share a few thoughts with you.

2. I strongly believe that the most important obligation towards our child is ‘Good Education’. Parents are their child’s first teachers, and they have a key role in shaping up their character. A balance of education at home and school molds a student's actual learning. Parental encouragement plays a crucial role in creating successful students.

3. ‘A good school’ is a tool that prepares students for life by providing an ‘Education for Life’

through an enriched curriculum.

4. At DPSG Sushant Lok, we go a step further and wish to communicate a message of trust and confidence in

all stakeholders as we aim at building consistency of action and results. We believe in making our students

undergo the DPSG experience by focusing on must haves:

    (a) A clear and shared vision for the school.

    (b) A conducive learning environment.

    (c) Skilled and supportive teachers and administrators and their constant upskilling and development.

    (d) Focus on teaching and learning.

            (i) An Education for Life.

            (ii) Teaching – Learning beyond the Classroom.

    (e) Reliable support staff.

    (f) A safe learning environment for students.

    (g) Affordable Fee.

    (h) Teamwork by Students, Parents, Teachers and Administrative Staff.

    (j) State-of-the-art equipment and facilities.

5. DPSG SL, your ward’s school, if judged on parameters listed in Para 6 (a) to (j) above, would fare far better than majority schools in Gurugram. The school is indeed special because it is a single section per class school. The average class strength ranges between 15 to 20 students only. We may add a few numbers but only enough to provide a competitive edge to our students. The numbers ensure that all at school know their students well. DPSG has a unique curriculum with equal emphasis on Scholastic and Foundational Domains. It follows a system that allows the students to work out their roadmap to a better future.

6. DPSG has some of the best faculty. This is evidenced by the recently declared class X and XII Board results achieved by the school. You would have also noticed the commitment and effort put in by the staff over the years. On its part, the school is equally pleased to see the enthusiasm of majority of parents, who keep sharing their feedback about school’s initiatives.

7. Though you have been apprised of the Student Leadership Camp in the Quarter1 edition of

Newsletter, I would like to draw your attention yet again towards this unique initiative taken up by DPSG Society in arranging the Student Leadership Camp for Student Council members of 8 DPSG Schools. The camp held in the salubrious environs of Sela Qui International during the month of June 2022 is a point in case and proves beyond doubt that DPSG society is dedicated towards nurturing future leaders. For members of Student Council, the camp has been a major learning experience. Our students at school are going to benefit immensely from all the initiatives being taken by the school.

8. You are aware of the on-going Campaign of DPSG, Sushant Lok in collaboration with MCG Gurugram ‘GOOD MORNING GURUGRAM’ - an initiative towards “Swachh Bharat, Swastha Bharat” has been going in full swing ever since its launch in the month of May 22. The launch of Environ Earth – each one nurtures one is a commitment towards building up of a positive change in the era of climate crisis. This and much more is coming your way as DPSGians demonstrate their lessons learnt in Citizenship Studies.

9. I am sure you would have acted on my letter advising you to equip your child with a digital learning tool (Tablet or laptop) that will enable leveraging technology in imparting quality education. Should there be a doubt regarding the same, you may kindly contact the HRT.

10. DPSG SL carries forward a legacy of 42 years. We are proud to announce that our students have performed well and have shown encouraging results in the Board examination conducted in May 2022. The guidance provided by CCUP- Career counselling and University Placement cell at DPSG has further empowered our students to make the right career choice and nurture their ever-growing appetite to learn, aspire and grow as they undertake higher studies.

11. We believe that a positive supportive and open relationship between school and parents is desirable for improved educational outcomes for ‘our children’ and seek your cooperation in school programs. On behalf of the school and on my own behalf, I wish you and your families good health and happiness for all times to come.

With Best wishes

Ms. Gauri Doga
