BELLS AND BEYOND – A Journey Through DPS RK Puram
Delhi Public School RK Puram has always been known for its traditions and legacy. The assembly was a walk down memory lane with some of the famous alumni of DPS RK Puram visiting the school for an Alumni Meet and remembering the ‘good old days’. The performance in the form of a Musical encompassed all the elements of the vibrant school life of a DPS RK Puram student, that is, dance, music, singing and enactment, speaking, art and craft. The students aimed at highlighting the core values that represent the DPS RK Puram family – hard work, perseverance, grit, collaboration and above all, Service Before Self. We are confident in our belief that the students who graduate from DPS RK Puram leave only the school building. They proudly carry the school within their hearts, no matter where they go.
