The school's NSS volunteers visited the Institute for the Blind, Chandigarh. The objective was to sensitise students and to instill in them a deeper sense of empathy and social responsibility. During the visit, students gained valuable insights into how the visually impaired lead independent lives using specially designed learning aids and tactile tools. Principal Gulshan Kaur appreciated the initiative and said, "We believe in nurturing not just academically sound individuals, but also empathetic and socially responsible citizens."

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).
