Student Clubs
At John Paul we practice 'student centered approach', where teaching for understanding is coupled with a stimulating and varied curriculum. To inculcate in our students a passion for learning and achievement, we have various clubs and societies of which they can become members. We believe that all our students are unique individuals, with equal potential to make a positive contribution to the school. Our goal is to instil an enthusiasm for lifelong learning. Students under the guidance of a faculty member run their own clubs and organize activities, depending on their interests. They have the option to choose from G.K. Club, Literary Club, Eco Club, Social Service- Interact Club, Debating Club, Photography Club etc. .

A picture speaks a thousand words. Students in the Photography Club are taught the art and technique of good photography. The objective here is to teach them the nuances of focus, shutter speed, aperture etc. besides learning how to define objects, distance, angles, color combinations, light and diffusion, size and coverage, vantage positioning and artistic viewpoints. We have a good number of 'picture perfect' photographs in the making.
