As the final school bell rings and uniforms and lunchboxes are stowed away, a season of possibility begins. Summer arrives, bringing long days and endless opportunities for children to learn, discover, and simply be.

While children revel in their newfound freedom, parents face familiar questions: “How do I keep them active and engaged?” “Will they forget what they’ve learned?” “Should I plan their summer, or give them freedom?” At Oakridge International School, Visakhapatnam, summer is not a break from learning but a vibrant continuation of it. With thoughtful planning, this summer can be a time of meaningful exploration for your child.

Rest Fuels Growth

Unstructured time with family or alone is essential for fostering curiosity, creativity, and resilience. At Oakridge Vizag, we encourage students to embrace this pause to recharge before diving back into learning.

Keep Curiosity Alive

Learning doesn’t require a rigid schedule. From reading books and traveling to watching movies and engaging in conversations, countless experiences can spark a child’s imagination. As part of the Oakridge experience, learning extends into summer — an inspiring chapter of curiosity and growth.

Play Is Learning

Through play, children build confidence, adaptability, and a sense of wonder. Play lies at the heart of learning at Oakridge, nurturing skills that last a lifetime.

Move, Play, and Feel Great

Physical activity boosts energy and happiness, whether it’s a walk, a workout, or dancing in the living room. Movement is essential to keeping minds sharp and engaged—something Oakridge values deeply.

Balance, Don’t Ban Screens

Screen time is inevitable, but with thoughtful planning, it can complement other creative activities. Who knows? Your child might discover a passion that extends far beyond the summer.

Nurture Emotional Growth

Summer offers a chance for reflection. Journaling, practicing gratitude, and sharing dreams foster emotional intelligence — a core component of the Oakridge curriculum.

This summer, let exploration know no bounds. Let creativity flourish. Let every moment — whether chaotic, magical, or anything in between — contribute to your child’s remarkable journey. Learning is a lifelong adventure at Oakridge, evolving into new and exciting forms with each season.
