Library
The library has ancient and modern books which are not easily found everywhere. Most of them were bought by coeval sanctioned money during the establishment of the school. Others were bought by annually approved money.
School magazine
The name of the magazine of the school is UDDIPON (উদ্দীপন). The magazine is not published regularly every year. It is published after every 4 years. The school magazine is a historical document of the growth of the school. It informs the future generation of students about the traditions built up of their school. This valuable publication is the opportunity that students require to show their creative talents. Along with academic studies, students are encouraged in games and athletics, art and craft, science clubs, dramatics and various other activities. These make the years in school interesting and worth remembering. But intellectual activities like debates, elocution and essay-writing competitions are rarely found. The school magazine is the window to the activities of the school. Proper initiative by the teachers can help in improving the views and expressions of the students which in turn will raise the standard of the magazine.
