An auditorium with a sitting capacity of 800 people, 1,000 seater open amphitheatre, luxurious world-class semi Olympic size swimming pool with heating and cooling facilities, indoor court for squash and table tennis, basketball and volleyball courts are among the facilities which will be available at a Delhi government’s School of Specialised Excellence.
According to officials, the school, being built at a cost of Rs 39.73 crore, will be ready within a year, in which all world-class facilities for education as well as sports will be available to its students.
Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia laid the foundation stone of this School of Specialized Excellence in Mehram Nagar on Thursday.
“The new building of this school has been designed keeping in mind the overall development of the children. This school building will be different from the normal schools and the entire school premises would be involved in the learning process of the children,” Mr Sisodia said.
“It is our responsibility to provide all the facilities to schools, but a good school is not marked by only a magnificent building but by the hard work of its students and teachers,” Mr Sisodia added.
