The school offers after-school classes in dance, Hindustani vocal, tabla and western music which are very popular with students from Stds.1 to 5.
Creative Spaces
The school has an enduring commitment to the visual and performing arts. MAIS believes that art, music and drama are not extra-curricular at all but an entitlement of all students and, profoundly related to learning. The school’s innovative Creative Arts Department has produced critically acclaimed artwork, murals, plays, musicals and concerts. More importantly, this incredibly talented department has led several initiatives to integrate the creative arts into several other parts of the curriculum. The result has been the creation of riveting learning experiences that have proved invaluable for students. Last year every student from Preparatory to Std.7 participated in the school’s production of Panchatantra
There are a variety of spaces throughout the school for students to explore the visual and performing arts. These include an art studio and courtyard, a dance and drama room, music rooms, an amphitheatre and open courtyards throughout the school where teaching, learning and performance are enabled.
