We believe parents are partners in our learning community. We like to involve our parents in the daily life of the School. Our parent population is extremely rich in experience and culture and we recognize that students benefit greatly from this. We welcome and encourage parents’ inputs.

Ways in which you can participate are :

• Give a PPT presentation related to the unit.
• Demonstrate your special talent in Art & Craft/ Music/ Dance/ Drama/ Puppet Show/ Poem Recitation and Storytelling.
• Organise field trips and social events.
• Organise Cookery Classes.
• Share your career experience with students.
• Help out in the Library.

Parent Teacher Meetings at EGS are organized to discuss and reflect the learning process of each individual child. We organize the following :

• Unit reflection days to observe how children understand the concepts and reflect their skills.
• Student conferences where students take you through their portfolio and explain the journey of their learning.
• Exhibitions to showcase their talent.
• Report card is given twice a year which reflects the progress of each and every aspect of the child.
