Prog : 57, 27-06-2009 at Kathiawad Primary School, Himmatnagar, Dist: Sabarkantha

Hello!

Here’s a report on the 57th TAS School Program.

Today we visited the Kathiawad Primary School at City : Himmatnagar, Dist : Sabarkantha.

As usual, we were accorded a warm welcome by the students and the authorities excitedly awaiting the program.

The banner display of 4’ x 3’ size (Local language Gujarati & English both) was set up for the students to explore the mysteries of the solar system & monthly star charts at their own pace. And we watched them peruse the information and discuss the same with their friends.

The session started with ‘Journey to Space’ show. During the interactive session that followed, nearly 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! Many different questions created interesting debates. Some exceptionally bright students answered my questions with amazing clarity and were awarded prizes at the end of the presentation.

Due to lack of big hall and projector, the ‘Journey to Space’ was shown on computer screen to the students of 6th standard to 9th standards in class room. In every show they were roughly 50 of them. To cover every student, we screened 12 shows and interactive sessions to cover nearly 600 students.

We acknowledge the gracious support of the following people in making this program a success: Ravindra Ambala, Neel Shah, Nikul. We thank them all for their interest.
