The school organised a sale of old specimen books, giving the feel of a Book Fair. The idea was initiated by Principal Suman Sharma, who always motivates students to take up creative and meaningful activities. The books, though old, were in excellent condition and sold at a nominal price of Rs 20 each. In this way, they will not lie unused but will be utilised. The money collected will be used for a noble cause, while students gained access to quality books at low cost. Parents enthusiastically purchased books for their children. Students, who managed stalls with sincerity and teamwork, were specially appreciated by the principal for their excellent work.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
