All of you are involved in some sort of extra-curricular activity or hobby- painting, reading, dance, music, sports – the list is endless. Extra-curricular activities are the activities performed by you outside the realm of the normal curriculum of your school education. These activities exist at all levels of education, from Kindergarten to middle school, from high school to college education. Taking the time to get involved in extra-curricular activities will benefit you in a variety of ways.  Participating in extra-curricular activities can serve as an outlet for stress and a way to build confidence and self-esteem. Not only they will provide you pleasure in doing   your favourite works, but at the same time they can also give opportunities to gain vital experience and skills that lead you on the path to bright and prosperous future.

 Bright Stars, sincerity, determination, patience and hard work are the keys to success. You can easily achieve all these great qualities by involving yourselves in some extra-curricular activities. Students involved in extra-curricular activities are more likely to become hard workers, more willing to complete tasks, more willing to voice opinions, and more likely to excel in life. They become very confident, develop their will power and prepare themselves to accept any challenge. Hence, extra-curricular activities help you to gain experience in a variety of areas that will enhance your future.  Leadership, management responsibilities, teamwork, communication and organizational skills are all gained by extra-curricular activities.  By participating in sports, dance, music or any educational programme you learn co-operation, teamwork and time management etc. 

Nice Guys, Extra-curricular activities can help you to display your hidden talents and learn about things outside your own environment. They can pave your ways with flowers of success. Hence, extra-curricular activities are most important and essential in your life. They can give you name, fame and success. But remember, they shouldn’t take up all of a student’s time outside the school day. There should still be time for homework, games, relaxing, and spending time with friends and family. A combination of all these are an important part of a healthy life-style. Extra-curricular activities should complement a student’s life, not complicate it. When students are involved in too many activities or in an activity that takes up too much time, they will become stressed and begin to suffer. You, all should therefore be very careful not to overextend yourselves by taking on too many activities or volunteering for too many organizations.
