ACADEMICS & BEYOND

The Mount Litera Olympiad is an inter-MLZS competition in which students from all MLZS participate to showcase their talent in various fields. This national-level competition requires students to prove their mettle in the school, zonal and national rounds. While competition encourages the spirit of excellence, we also focus on building inter-school relationships and exchange of ideas. The Olympiad has two parts: online and on-ground. Online events like photography and story writing competitions allow students from various schools to display their creative side. On-ground events include sports and athletics group (cricket, football, badminton, table tennis, and athletics) and the creative group (dance competition, debate and quiz). An important ritual in the zonal and national Olympiads is the Bonfire Night. Students, teachers and MLZS members gather around an exciting bonfire to share stories, play fun games and bond with the MLZS family.

Mount Litera Zee School encourages students to participate in a wide-range of clubs in schools including clubs like Literary Club, Science and Mathematics Club, Health and Wellness Club, Art club etc. Each Club is a community where students engage in continuous learning and MLZS supports them in finding their unique potential. Each club has activity groups, which are populated by interested members so that specific interest areas under a club can be addressed according to the number of interested students. A majority of the club activities are aligned with the Mount Litera Olympiad so that students have a goal and timeframe in mind when they engage in club activities

Field trips are a popular activity for all students. No matter how old they are or where they are headed, kids love to explore new places with their friends. At MLZS, we understand that any trip cannot qualify as a field trip. Good planning is necessary to ensure a successful and educationally relevant trip. Aims and objectives of field trips are to provide experiential learning (application of principles and concepts learnt for multiple subjects), holistic development (physical, social and emotional), and to enable formative assessment. Based on the expected learning outcomes, all outdoor activities/experiential programs are planned, designed and incorporated into the curriculum framework and lesson plans. Field trips also include industrial visits such as Beverages Industry (coca-cola factory visited by Grade VIII; Biscuit factory – Parle G visited by Grade V; Visit to Blind school to understand Braille and extend support to the especially abled children in which parents have also extended a helping hand. Many more such informative trips yet to some such as the… Birla Science Museum, Visit to farms, Agricultural University, Pochampally mills etc.

Swami Vivekananda famously said, “Be strong, my young friends; that is my advice to you. You will be nearer to Heaven through football than through the study of the Gita.” Age-appropriate development of the body helps nurture a sound mind. At Mount Litera Zee Schools, we offer various options for sports. In sports, we offer basketball, cricket, badminton (Indoor stadium with four courts), and swimming (apart from indoor sports like table tennis and carom). Mount Litera Zee School has its children representing in prestigious competitions such as the CBSE Cluster Sports Events and is an active member of the Sports for ALL (SFA) Hyderabad Championship for the year 2018-19 with children participating in various sports competitions such as Badminton, Basketball, Athletics and Taekwondo.

Sports is not only restricted to the children but parents too are an active part of sports activities. We have the “Mitra Trophy Series” organized every year wherein parents take part in a series of league matches in the game of Cricket and play friendly matches all through the year. This vision is lead by none other than the Secretary and Correspondent, Mr. K. Srikanth Reddy.
