    CREATIVE MILLENNIALS CLUB (ROBOTICS CLUB)

    This club was introduced in the session 2016-17 for classes VI to VIII and in this new session we have extended it to Students of Class IX as well. This is to allow students to have easy accessibility to robotics and technology in school. This popular club also helps students to develop an interest in Science and Engineering.

    However this club is a paid club since it is conducted by an organisation called Funscholar. Students have to pay Rs. 4800 for whole year, inclusive of the kit which will be provided to the students. This can be paid in two installments of Rs.2400 each. However, those who pay upfront can avail of a discount and pay Rs.4600.

    THE INQUISITIVES CLUB (QUIZ CLUB)

    Founded on 8th April, 2000, the Quiz Club of the school is aptly named "Grey Matter" The name owes its origin to the “little grey cells” in our brain and the colour of the school trousers.

Some notable laurels earned by the club members include the MP Birla Smarak Kosh Quiz 2014, The ALSOC Quiz organized by the Alumni Association of St. Xavier’s, The K.E.

    LITERARY CLUB (ENGLISH CLUB)

    The English Club of Birla High School aims at encouraging creative thinking in students and developing in them a flair for writing. Reading habits are encouraged in students because a command over the language cannot be developed without regular reading habits. Since a style of writing can only grow with regular habits of practicing writing, students are encouraged to write poems, short stories and articles on a regular basis. These are read out by the writers themselves while others later critically appreciate the texts of their peers. If it is felt that a change is required to be made, the writers do the needful. These articles are then published in the school magazine. The club also organizes the Inter House Elocution Competition.
