Hridaykunj Ashram!
Hello!
Here’s a report on the 47th TAS Program.
Today we visited one of the most important historic places of India “The Gandhi Ashram” at Sabarmati, Ahmedabad .
As usual, we were accorded a warm welcome by the students and the authorities excitedly awaiting the program. The program today was to show only slides of solar system through multi media. There were two types of participants today, one from the Ashram school, where up to 7th standard students from nearby slum area studies and other were all those who earn from boot- polishing on the streets. But along with these, many old ladies joined the program since, today was the day for them to get Free Grocery from Ashram.
The poster display was set up for the students to explore the mysteries of the solar system at their own pace. And we watched them peruse the information and discuss the same with their friends.
The program started with the interactive session of the solar system slides. Nearly all the slides fascinated them all. Another wonderful thing that gave us tremendous satisfaction is that the teachers too got into the spirit of things and participated wholeheartedly in the question – answer sessions that interspersed the presentation! Questions like – who was the first to go to the moon, how many planets are there in our solar system, now?’ created some interesting debates. Some exceptionally bright students answered my questions with amazing clarity and were awarded prizes at the end of the presentation. Both, the teachers and students, were especially keen to have us come again to give them a deeper understanding.
We acknowledge the gracious support of the following people in making this program a success: Mr. Jagat for coordinating, Rajesh Nath for photo documentation, Jigar Darji & Ravi Gamit for set up. We thank them all for their interest.
