Student Life

Creating a rich legacy of memories

Schools are places where memories are made, cherished for life and often recalled during special, happy moments of our lives.

At GEMS CIS, Hoshiarpur each day spent in school brings something new – new learning, new achievements, new experiences – that have an everlasting influence on our lives. The lessons we learn, the games we play and the friends whose company we keep – all go into the making of what we are. We focus on each aspect of a child’s life and not just academic excellence so that every impression it leaves on the psyche of the child is positive, edifying and helpful in building a bright future.

We lay the foundation of our children’s lives, guiding and shaping them gently but firmly and equipping them with the means to thrive in a fast-changing world. School life has never been so pleasant and so fulfilling as we have made it.

Events

GEMS Cambridge International School carefully plans a busy calendar filled with events that contribute to the growth of every child. These events include Founder’s Day/Annual Concert, Sports Day and special celebrations for Mother’s, Father’s and Grandparents’ Day. The school also prioritises cultural development by organising activities such as Gurbani Path & Langar Seva, Navratri Puja and more, aiming to instil Indian values and culture in its students. Additionally, the school emphasises the safe use of technology and regularly includes sessions on Cyber Security in its event list. Furthermore, the school honours meritorious students through award ceremonies, granting them scholarships and recognition for their achievements.

Leading with fun!

Our institution’s legacy is rooted in empowering future leaders. We aim to equip students with the knowledge and resources needed to create exceptional co-curricular experiences, build meaningful relationships and establish lifelong memories. Our focus on fostering responsibility and leadership skills in our students is designed to enable them to make a lasting impact in their communities and leave a positive legacy.

NCC

We have implemented the National Cadet Corps (NCC) programme to foster discipline and camaraderie among the student body. As a result of its active participation in various prestigious events, we have garnered recognition and approval from the NCC command for the establishment of the NCC Senior Wing, which permits Senior Secondary students to be part of this distinguished Corps. The introduction of the NCC in 2016 has yielded noteworthy results, with our NCC Cadets achieving remarkable accomplishments within a short span of time.

Anti-Drug Buddy Programme

Buddy Program is a mission to fight against drug abuse in the state. This program has been initiated by the government of Punjab which is a first-of-its-kind initiative. The Buddy Program aims to educate children about the ill-effects of drug abuse and generate positive peer influence. GEMS CIS has formed buddy groups to make youngsters aware about ill effects of drug addiction. On the prevention front, students through the Buddy Program develop knowledge, the right attitude and behaviour along with skills to prevent drug abuse. Our students, under the guidance of their mentors perform and be part of various activities to spread awareness.
