Introduction
Education goes far beyond textbooks. At GD Goenka Public School, Mahanagar, we believe every child deserves opportunities to discover their talents, passions, and capabilities through a well-rounded learning experience. That’s where enrichment activities come in—they offer essential support for personal growth and confidence-building.
What Are Enrichment Activities?
Enrichment activities include co-curricular programs that supplement academic learning with creative, physical, or life skill-oriented experiences. These can range from dramatics and dance to martial arts, music, and Abacus-based math enhancement. Each one adds another dimension to a child’s development.

Enrichment activities foster multiple skill sets:
- Cognitive Skills: Strategy games like Abacus improve problem-solving and logical thinking
- Social Skills: Group activities encourage cooperation, sharing, and communication
- Emotional Skills: Art, music, and dance help children express and regulate emotions
- Physical Skills: Yoga and martial arts enhance balance, strength, and discipline
