Life at Salwan

Education at Salwan reaches far beyond the classroom. With over 200 events a year, our co-curricular life — sport, houses, service, STEAM, and student leadership — is where character takes shape and every child discovers a passion to call their own.

Sports

A Team Above All, and All Above a Team

From the morning drill to inter-house finals — and our flagship inter-school festival, Spardha — every student is encouraged to move, compete, and grow. Our athletes are Zonal Athletics Champions for 2024-25.

  • Golf, Chess, and Shooting (air rifle) for focus and precision
  • Gymnastics, Cricket, Tennis, and Table Tennis across every age group
House Systems

The House System and its Objectives

“Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other.”
– John Kennedy, former President, USA

Salwan Public School house system is a traditional and effective way to enhance student engagement and foster a sense of community. This system helps nurture the spirit of camaraderie, solidarity, competitiveness, leadership, teamwork, zeal and enthusiasm among students.

Each student from Class I to XII is assigned to a house, ensuring diversity and inclusivity at every turn, and is gradually introduced to the ethos of the institution, that are instilled in each Salwanian to become true global ambassadors of the future.

The Houses are as follows:

Empathy

Colour: Blue

Represented by the colour BLUE, signifies trust and loyalty in human relationships and helps one feel valued, loved, and cared for.

Valour

Colour: Orange

Embodied by the colour Orange, demonstrates a special human quality of extraordinary and unselfish deeds in the face of great peril.

Humility

Colour: White

The colour of Peace, White helps to be more open to learning, being helpful and forgiving.

Integrity

Colour: Pink

Represented by the colour Pink, signifies morals and ethics, inspiring to engage only in righteous actions.

Resilience

Colour: Red

Epitomised by the colour RED, signifies energy and the power to take action, adapt to change, and overcome obstacles.

Harmony

Colour: Green

Showcased by the colour of optimism and health, Green promises growth, progress, fulfilment, happiness and survival of both the individual and the larger community.

Community Service

Service Before Self

Our founding motto is a living practice. Through SEWA initiatives, environmental drives, and outreach with neighbouring communities, students learn that education carries a responsibility to give back.

Eco Club campaigns, e-waste collections, Plastic-Free drives, and the Desh Aur Hum civic programme give young people first-hand experience of leading change — and the quiet pride of putting collective good ahead of personal gain.

Expeditions

Exchange Programmes

Salwan Public School was represented at Bett UK 2026, the world’s premier education technology exhibition, by Ms Priyanka Barara, Principal, and Mr Deepak Bablani, IT Head. The global platform offered valuable exposure to emerging trends in AI, pedagogy, digital safety, and future-ready classrooms.

STEAM

Where Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Maths Meet

Our STEAM programme breaks down the walls between subjects. Students design, build, and create — moving fluidly between the lab, the studio, and the workshop.

Science & Inquiry

Hands-on investigation in well-equipped Physics, Chemistry, and Biology labs, where curiosity leads the lesson.

Technology & Coding

Modern computer labs, robotics kits, and a coding curriculum that turns ideas into working prototypes.

Engineering & Design

Maker challenges and design-thinking projects that ask students to build, test, and refine real solutions.

Arts & Mathematics

Visual and performing arts woven together with applied mathematics — because creativity and logic grow together.

Student Leadership

Learning to Lead, Learning to Serve

Leadership at Salwan is earned through responsibility, not title. Students take charge of initiatives, mentor their juniors, and represent their peers — discovering the confidence to lead with empathy.

01

Student Council

Elected representatives who voice student perspectives, organise initiatives, and steward the school's everyday life.

02

House System

Houses spanning Nursery to Class XII compete and collaborate across sport, culture, and service — building belonging and healthy rivalry.

Prefectorial Board

Senior students model responsibility, mentor juniors, and uphold the values that define the Salwan community.

04

Service Captains

Peers who lead SEWA (Social Empowerment through Work Education and Action) drives and outreach, turning “Service Before Self” into action beyond the classroom.
