The activity at PWS
Creative hands, patient minds
Art and practical skills give children a different way to learn – by making. PWS students practise calligraphy, mould clay, design rangoli and posters, and even cook without fire, learning patience, planning and pride in their work.
These activities are part of the school week and of inter-house competitions, and student work is displayed around the school.
