Hey guys!
Extracurricular activities are as imp as academic studies. This should be made compulsory for EACH student in school. Because-.
1. This keeps them fit both mentally & physically, which is the utmost requirement for bright future of INDIA.
2. Especially in India, we found youth are more confused than confident! So, by involving in different activities from childhood, in future, they can easily choose their carrier in which they are passionate about.
3. By involving in different sports activities they can learn many things. Like how to be a good team player, how to be a responsible leader etc.
4. These activities are surely going to raise their self-esteem, so that they can think and act independently. (These two qualities are very important to be successful in a carrier).
5. This also going to help in developing better communication skill, which is very important to express their ideas and thoughts with everyone.
This will surely go to decrease unemployment percentage in INDIA. Because nowadays it is found that, students in lakhs (able or unable) competing in many competitive exams. Most of the students are participating in these exams because everyone is doing the same. They are just following blindly without exploring their strength!

I believe today in our country we don't just need toppers but leaders!
Yes, In today's fast pacing world and the highly competitive world it's important to have people who are are not just well read but knowledgeable too.
No doubt education is a must but co curricular activities play an important role in a child's overall development.
-> firstly, children get a break from their routine, which is refreshing.
-> Secondly, children may explore their talents which they may later pursue as a career.
-> Thirdly, different co-curricular activities have their own benefit.
* Activities like extempore, recitation, debating, group discussions, quizzes, hone a child's speaking and Mental skills!
* Activities like sports are all team building activities which teach children about games spirit and team spirit (Plus have amazing physical health benefits too).
* Activities like theatre, drama or dances boost a child's self-confidence and make them independent. They Never get a stage fright and become bold enough to speak their minds and take actions!
Therefore, I believe co-curricular activities should be given a great importance in today's schools!

I think that extracurricular activities in school must be made compulsory for students as it not only develop an interest in other fields but also helps a student to reduce his or her stress level.
It is proved in a survey that the students who learn some extra activities too other then academics their stress level is much lesser than the students who just focus on their studies.
Extra-curricular activities also help us to find our interest areas and choose our future career. If student gets encouraged towards sports or other fields from school itself it will help them to choose their future.

2) Make interaction (ally) with people.
3) It gives a chance to show our hidden power.
4) It increases our knowledge.

For a proper development of personality, both should be balanced. In present-days, education gives lot of stress on student mind, extracurricular activity will have a healthy effect on the mind of students.

Yes. They should be there. Because these are like vitamins and minerals for build up of our personalitiy. Being a student of school having these, I can tell you that when we are looking for real ourselves, in that time extracurricular help us the way that we can't even think about those these things. Secondly, we can look for our area of interest like dance singing photography and many more things.

Hey guys.
I am Monika.
Our topic is Extracurricular activities should be made compulsory in school.
Yes, it is very important to make the extracurricular activities compulsory in not only schools but in colleges also if possible. Nowadays even a small child is being pressurised so much to read and become topper of the class in most cases. And marks are given so much of importance which is not fair. The children should be given equal exposure all extracurricular activities which help in personality development, stress relief and moulding them into better citizens as they learn morals, punctuality etc. Through sports like activities.
Nowadays students are committing suicides for getting less marks which is very unfortunate so through extracurricular activities students must be taught the life lessons.

Yes, I agree with the statement that extracurricular activities should be made compulsory in school. Besides gaining academic knowledge through books it is necessary to take part in other activities. These activities are also a part of life. They teach to remain punctual. Builds confidence among the individual. Develops a good leadership quality. Teach about the good team spirit. Removes hesitation. Make the individual physically and mentally fit. Individual know about their hidden capabilities and they make a career in this field in the future.

Students have a right to a broad education. Why should a science student have to give up music, or a social studies major not get opportunities for sport? Many children have talents in all sorts of different areas, and it is wrong to force them to specialise too early. A career is not the only part of an adult's life " school needs to make sure they have interests and skills that will help them in their family and leisure lives too. Through equal balancing of academic and co-curriculum, however, the students have the chance to exercise their rights and the opportunity to be multi-talented. Lopsided individuals are not the key to the future, instead of recognising each individual by their talents there exists a higher possibility for young people to learn and to grow in their studies.
