Daily assembly

edit

Daily assembly plays a great role to raise discipline, unity and loyalty. That is why, 15 minutes of starting everyday classes, a daily assembly holds for both shifts individually. A daily assembly contains Quran recitations, uptake The National Flag of Bangladesh, repetition of The Oath, serving the National Anthem of Bangladesh and some physical exercises. Everyone has to take part in daily assembly every day.[4]

Uniform

edit

From grades 1-3, the uniform is white shirts and navy blue shorts or full-length pants. From grades 4-10, the uniform is full-sleeve or half-sleeve white shirts and navy blue full-length pants. White school shoes are mandatory for each and every student. For all grades, the embroidered monogram which is given by the school must be attached to the left pocket of the shirt. Both shifts have their individual monogram. Morning shift's monogram has the title 'প্রভাতি' which means morning and Day shift's monogram has the title 'দিবা' which means day. The most essential thing for every student is their own individual ID card which is provided by the school every year.[4]

প্রমীলা জেসমিন
সহকারী শিক্ষিকা
 আমরা বিজ্ঞান স্কুলের ছাত্ররা
 লেখাপড়া করবোই করব
          মানুষের মত মানুষ হব
          আঁধার থেকে আলোর পথে এগিয়ে যাব
          মানুষের সেবা করব
          দেশকে ভালবাসবো।
 এসো সবাই মিলে, এক হয়ে হাতে হাত রাখি,
 একটি শক্তিশালী, আদর্শ রাষ্ট্র গড়ি
 দেশের একতা রাখবো
 সংহতি বুকে বাঁধবো
 হবেই জয়, আমাদের জয়, জয় হবে।
