Activities
House system
The school operates on a four-house system, with students from Grade I onwards assigned to houses named Agni, Akash, Prithvi, and Sagar, representing the forces of nature. Through this system, students engage in sports and cultural activities competitively, with year-long inter-house competitions. Each house has elected student captains and vice-captains, as well as teachers serving as mentors. A teacher-in-charge oversees each house, fostering a healthy competitive spirit across the school.

Club activities
At Subbiah Central School, we believe in providing children with the right activities at the right age in a structured format. That’s why we offer club activities for students in Grades IV-X during their regular class hours. Each week, students spend a few periods participating in club activities, alternating between two groups.
Our clubs cover a wide range of interests:
3. Math Club, 4. Science Club,
5. Eco Yuva Club, 6. Health and Hygene Club,
7. Techie Club.
These clubs, led by elected secretaries and supervised by teachers, operate throughout the year, contributing actively to school events. Additionally, we have an Interact Club aligned with Rotary International, fostering a spirit of public service among our students.

At Subbiah Central School, we value the development of students’ individual interests and talents through regular Extra Curricular Activities (ECA).

They can choose from a variety of activities provided by external coaches at a nominal fee, including Classical Dance, Western Dance, Keyboard, Yoga, Tennis, Karate, Skating, Football, Cricket, Throwball, Table Tennis, Chess, Abacus, and Aeromodelling.
For students who prefer not to participate in paid activities, internal activities are available during the ECA hour, ensuring that ECA remains an integral part of schooling for all students.
