It is imperative for students to participate in the school’s extra –curricular Activities. Indulgence in these activities not only surfaces child’s interest but also helps him to sort out his future goals. Also, students can have their interests expanded by showing their inclination towards these events. It is must for all schools to have wide range of activities so as to encourage involvement of students in at least one activity. Besides focusing on academics, schools must facilitate these activities to every student. These activities could consist of anything such as joining school’s debate team, sports, and dance or music guilds.
One such school which truly believes in student participation in the extra-curricular activities is “Presidium Senior Secondary School”. It lays lot of emphasis on all-round development of a child's personality. Presidium is a school where teaching is not about knowledge downloads, but fostering excellence. Presidium has groups such as adventure sports, taekwondo, yoga, aerobics, dance etc.

These are best confidence building techniques where the child is able to shed his/her fear of darkness, height, being alone, and most importantly the fear of failure.
