Community Service & Social Work

ADDING MEANING TO THE LIVES …

At Somerville School, NOIDA we believe in developing social responsibility through regular community service thereby sensitising our students to the wide gap that exists between the ‘haves’ and the ‘have nots’ and making them realise that they can make a difference in the lives of the underprivileged segment of the society.
