Culture and language
Gobind Sarvar School welcomes students from every background and culture. We believe that diversity is our strength. To this effect, you will find that our staff members come from different backgrounds and this makes our programs diverse and exciting.
The Punjabi culture is diverse and you will find that, in
Punjab, people from many different backgrounds live
together. Indeed, in some villages in Punjab, you will
find Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs living and working
together. The culture is vibrant with exquisite tastes
in music and food. The main spoken language is
Punjabi.
At Gobind Sarvar, we promote our culture by hosting
various functions and celebrating key festivals like
Diwali and Vaisakhi. Participation in cultural festivals
encourages our youth to learn and become
knowledgeable about their own heritage.
The language of Punjabi is taught as a second language. This is important as our mother language is slowly being eroded. The use of written and spoken Punjabi is promoted - this is particularly important
so that our children are able to communicate with parents and grandparents at home.
