The daily chapel service includes an ecumenical  worship with a relevant message to inspire the community. The service is open to all, but attendance is not obligatory. During the study term, a united evening worship is held in the chapel every Sunday at 6.15 pm.Teachers and students take initiative for the conduct of these services.
