Prog : 51, 18-04-2009, Municipal school, Sarkari Vasahat, Vastrapur, Ahmedabad










Hello!

Here’s a report on the 51st TAS Municipal School Program.

Today we visited the municipal school at Sarkari Vasahat, Vastrapur, Ahmedabad. This school is adopted by Lions Club of Ahmedabad Greater as Permanent Service Center. Under this banner, they have invited NGO called “Samvedana” to take up the educational challenge of the students.

Today we were called in the morning hours for multi-media presentation of the Solar system. As usual, we were accorded a warm welcome by the students and the authorities excitedly awaiting the program.

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 interactive session. The Solar flare, phases of Venus, Aurora Borealis, etc. slides fascinated them all. Another wonderful thing that gave us tremendous satisfaction is that the teachers as well as organizers too got into the spirit of things and participated wholeheartedly in the question – answer sessions that interspersed the presentation! Both, the teachers and students, were especially keen to have us come again to give them a deeper understanding. During the session we distributed Moon cards to all those bright students who spontaneously answered some questions correctly.

One student from UK and two from Germany – studying history were present too. Even though the session was in local language (Gurarati), they praised the presentation. As a memento, students gave us nice ornamental plant in decorative pot.

We acknowledge the gracious support of the following people in making this program a success: Jankiben Vasant - Founder of Samvedana NGO, Committee of Lions Club of Ahmedabad Greater, Jigar Darji & Ravi Gamit for nice setup. We thank them all for their interest.
