Labs – Effective teaching and learning of subject matter involves a strong combination of the theory and the practical, hence SAI International School combines classroom teaching with laboratory learning to ensure that the students grasp each and every concept thoroughly.

Benefits of Laboratories – Laboratory teaching and experiments are conducted to help encourage deep understanding of the subject and satisfy the queries arising in the curious minds of the children. Therefore, they can retain the knowledge gained long after they have conducted the experiments. The main objective of the labs is to induce SAI Learning skills and SAI Social skills; qualities that help one to rise above the ordinary and emerge as global thought leaders and thinkers.

Experiential learning is the key to better understanding and hence SAI International has multiple states of the art labs relating to different subjects to enable students to better understand the complex topics.

The advanced labs include the ATAL tinkering, SAI TV, Radio Orange, Robotics, Visual Performing Art, Visual Art, Maths, International Language, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Sports and Science, extending the experiential learning support to the students.

ATAL Tinkering Lab - ATAL Tinkering Lab (ATL) is a Government of India initiative to create an environment of scientific temperament, innovation, creativity amongst Indian students. It is a step towards a new, shining and digital India. ATL lab would teach the essentials of 21st century skills, which will help them in developing their professional and personal skills. Skilled India is the need of the hour for a smarter, enhanced and digital India.

The main objective of this scheme is to instill curiosity, creativity, and imagination in the young minds and inculcate skills such as design mindset, computational thinking, adaptive learning, physical computing etc. ATL has educational and learn “do it yourself” kits and equipment on – science, electronics, robotics, open source microcontroller boards, sensors and 3D printers etc.

SAI International School was selected by NITI Aayog Government of India (GOI), to establish ATL in the school. The Atal Tinkering laboratory (ATL) at SAI International School provides opportunities for students to explore skills of the future like design and computational thinking, adaptive learning and artificial intelligence through state-of-the-art technologies and competent faculties.

The lab is a brilliant way to bring the do-it-yourself culture to the forefront, encourage and motivate students to become solution providers and get engaged in self-learning that will not only lead to the development of higher order thinking skills, but may eventually lead to discoveries, innovations and inventions. The lab helps each child develop his or her own unique potential far more effectively.

Entrepreneurship Lab - Entrepreneurship is in vogue and young entrepreneurs are in the big league of the globalised world. To facilitate the senior students with a common interface, where they can share innovative ideas and keep track of difficult challenges by combining technical, business and market skills, SAI International conceived and delivered the idea of an Entrepreneurship Lab.

An entrepreneur is trained amidst contemporary and futuristic projects, through the time machine. The concept of the time machine transmits the learner into the future with a futuristic problem, adding several cutting-edge issues to their problem solving approach. Each learner is trained individually with numerous realistic projects which sharpens the business acumen, to reap a rich harvest in the near and distant future.

SAI International School had devised the unique concept of time machine, wherein a student moves into the future and imagines what he or she will do and where he or she will be. Based on this concept, students travel to their future and dream of their vision. They blend their project in the school’s entrepreneurship lab and create a project report at the end of the program. Thus, begins their journey to the future.

Leadership, risk taking, team work, discipline are some of the facets that are largely seen to be the points of discussion. Under the excellent guidance and expertise of the Chairman, the Entrepreneurship Lab is a hub of innovation and creativity.

Robotics Lab - As the technological advances continue, it becomes imperative to keep the generation in tandem with the processes of the present that are largely futuristic. Robotics is the branch of technology that deals with innovation, design, construction and operation of robots. To bring the students closer to science and engineering, the Robotics lab was introduced in the school campus.

Robotics, a fusion of innovative challenge-based activities, helps in fostering problem solving skills. It helps the students to think more about the application of the concepts taught in the classrooms.

SAI International believes that the 21st century belongs to people who innovate, and Robotics is a big part of innovation hence the School is taking big strides to train the gen-next to face future challenges.

Aryabhatta Math Lab - The Aryabhatta Math lab is based on the three pillars of imagination, investigation and interaction. It offers multiple teaching and learning aids as well as a complete theme-based ambience which helps students to visualize and feel mathematics. It is a place where students can learn and explore mathematical concepts and verify mathematical facts and theorems through a variety of activities, using different materials. These activities may be carried out by the teacher or the student to explore, to learn, to stimulate interest and develop a favorable attitude towards mathematics.

International Language Lab - The International language lab provides adequate opportunities to the students to learn languages effectively through the Wordsworth courseware that develops the four skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking.

The International language laboratory plays an important role in the language learning process of the School and helps the students to learn the language with proficiency. Detailed attention is given to clarity and accuracy as it is vital for effective and efficient communication.

The Language Lab helps learners to develop their speaking abilities, when they listen to sample pronunciations of native speakers, record their voices and correct themselves.

Dhyan Chand Sports Lab - This highly technically advanced laboratory is primarily used for teaching, research and testing in the area of sports and the science of exercise. The lab is about 400 square metres in size and is a vibrant space of the School. The sports laboratory increases the possibility to test and analyze things that are of utmost interest for athletes, such as conditioning, strength and speed. The lab is incorporated with a football ground, two basketball courts, swimming pools for both boys and girls separately, table tennis, badminton court, horse riding and many more.

Performing Arts Lab - Guru Kelucharan was an Indian classical dancer, guru and proponent of Odissi dance, who is credited with the revival of the classical dance form in the 20th century. As a salutation to the great personality the Guru Kelucharan Dance Lab was built in the School campus. Young dancers begin with classes such as aerobics / yoga or turn! jump! leap! which explore movements and teach the basics of dance and class etiquette. As children get older, they begin the understanding of working towards injecting the choreography with their own experiences and feelings to give their moves more emotional depth and find a method of expression that is their very own.

Visual Arts Lab - To enhance the fine art and craft skills, the students are exposed to different mediums and techniques for visual expression of artistic ideas. The objective of this lab is to show the transformative power of art and help put the student’s creativity on paper more beautifully. Besides this, the lab also aids in making the child trust his/her inherent abilities, put joy in their work and augment creativity.

SAI TV - SAI TV is one of the most exciting clubs that enables the students to get an exposure on the basics of film making and television production. Through activities like panel discussions, anchoring, comparing, interviews, studio discussions, outdoor recordings etc., students gain an in-depth idea and a hands-on experience on: Script writing, Scouting, Audio, video & lighting, Use of camera, Editing, Studio production, Digital cinematography, Producing and directing.
