Benjamin Franklin's timeless wisdom, "Tell me and I forget, Teach me and I may remember, Involve me and I learn," perfectly encapsulates the essence of experiential learning. This philosophy is at the heart of Royal Public Matric Higher Secondary School, where educators go beyond traditional teaching methods.
At Royal Public, teachers actively engage students in hands-on activities, empowering them to discover and understand concepts through their own direct experiences. This approach fosters a deeper, more profound mastery of subjects, aligning with Albert Einstein's belief that "The only source of knowledge is experience." By encouraging students to reflect on their actions and learn from them, Royal Public ensures that knowledge is not just acquired, but truly internalized and deeply rooted.

At Royal Public Matric Higher Secondary School, we believe that "teaching children about the natural world should be seen as one of the most important events in their lives." This philosophy drives our commitment to educating students beyond the confines of textbooks. Our core motto is all-round development, encompassing mental, physical, psychological, spiritual, and vocational growth.
We know that simply relying on traditional classroom teaching won't achieve this holistic development. That's where our club activities shine! These clubs are crucial for helping students build a strong sense of unity and teamwork, learning how to collaborate effectively with others to reach shared goals.
At Royal Public, we're dedicated to giving students opportunities to explore their interests, develop new skills, and connect with peers outside the classroom. Our vibrant club system actively fosters critical thinking, creativity, and leadership. To keep things fresh and exciting, club themes and activities evolve every year.
In a unique approach, both students and teachers are shuffled and reassigned to different clubs each year. This ensures new collaborations and broader experiences, creating a truly dynamic learning environment where every year brings exciting opportunities for growth and discovery.
We took on the theme 'Page to Life' and explored how literature can come alive through various forms of expression. We analyzed popular books and TV series, comparing them to real-life problems and finding solutions.
Our team worked on enhancing their writing skills. We also had a special dance performance, showcasing the symbolism and qualities of the phoenix.
Through presentations and discussions, we explored how STEM teaching methods can make literature more engaging and interactive, just like in the Harry Potter movies.
"இதிகாசங்களும் புராணங்களும்" என்ற இந்த ஆண்டின் கருப்பொருளுடன், தமிழன்னை மன்றம் ஒரு கண்கவர் நிகழ்வை அரங்கேற்றியது. அனைவரையும் வியப்பில் ஆழ்த்தும் வகையில், அழைப்பிதழை ஒரு புதுமையான முறையில் வடிவமைத்திருந்தனர்.
நிகழ்ச்சி நடைபெற்ற அரங்கில், தமிழின் இதிகாசங்களையும் புராணங்களையும் சித்தரிக்கும் அழகிய வண்ணக்கோலங்கள் (ரங்கோலிகள்) காட்சிப்படுத்தப்பட்டிருந்தன. அவற்றின் மேல், கோலங்களில் உள்ள காட்சியை விளக்கும் தமிழ் வரிகள் தலைகீழாக எழுதப்பட்டிருந்தன. மாணவர்கள், ஆசிரியர்கள், மற்றும் பெற்றோர்கள் என அனைவரும் அந்த வரிகளை அமைதியாக வாசிக்க ஊக்குவிக்கப்பட்டனர். சரியாக வாசித்தவர்களுக்குப் பரிசுகள் வழங்கப்பட்டன.
கருப்பொருளை விளக்கும் பல்வேறு விளக்கப்படங்கள் (charts) காட்சிக்கு வைக்கப்பட்டிருந்தன. கருப்பொருளைப் பிரதிபலிக்கும் வகையிலான நடன நிகழ்ச்சி அனைவரையும் கவர்ந்தது. மாணவர்கள் தாங்கள் இயற்றிய கவிதைகளை வாசித்தனர். ஒரு வினாடி மட்டும் அழைப்பிதழைக் காட்டி, அதில் உள்ள தகவல்களைக் கொண்டு வினாடி வினா நடத்தப்பட்டது. கூர்ந்து கவனித்துச் சரியாகப் பதிலளித்தவர்களுக்குப் பரிசுகள் வழங்கப்பட்டன.
வரவேற்பு நடனமாக, திருக்குறள் மற்றும் ஆத்திச்சூடி வரிகளை அடிப்படையாகக் கொண்ட நடனம் நிகழ்த்தப்பட்டது. மாணவர்கள் பாடிய தமிழ் பாடல்கள் இனிமையாக ஒலித்தன. திருக்குறளின் முதல் சொல்லைச் சொல்லி, அதற்குரிய முழு திருக்குறளையும் மாணவர்கள் கூறும்படி ஒரு போட்டி நடத்தப்பட்டது. ஆர்வத்துடன் பங்கேற்ற அனைவருக்கும் பரிசுகள் வழங்கப்பட்டன.
தமிழன்னை மன்றம் நடத்திய இந்த நிகழ்ச்சி, மாணவர்களின் படைப்பாற்றலையும், வழக்கமான சிந்தனைக்கு அப்பால் சிந்திக்கும் திறனையும் தூண்டும் வகையில் அமைந்தது. இது ஒரு சிறந்த நிகழ்ச்சியாகும்!
