Religious and Moral Training
A course of Moral Instruction is given to all.
Moral instruction includes the study of the foundation of right
conduct, of our relation to God, to society, to the environment
and to oneself. The schools considers this as an essential part
of character – training and it would be guilty of flagrant
neglect of duty should the students leave the school without
knowing about these, especially in a country where religion is
so highly esteemed. The students ought to leave the school ably
prepared to work for: God and Country”.
The year one spends in school is also the time in which the
students acquire solid principles of action as a foundation of
life.
Social and Physical Training
Intramural games and sports are conducted to give maximum
opportunity to every boy to develop his/her student talents for
leadership, sportsmanship and team sprit.
Principles of trust, co-operation, self-reliance, hard work and
honesty are inculcated in great measure through co curricular
activities in the school. Some of the co-curricular activities
encouraged at St. Xavier’s are: public speaking, dramatics,
drawing and painting, music and singing; excursions and
educational tours. The house system (In the high school)
controls most of these activities.
