Short Street - Activities

Health and Nutrition Workshop for children and parents was conducted in school in collaboration with the Horlicks company. Children did an activity on what they wished to be after growing up and made cards for their parents. Doctors examined children, recorded their height and weight and calculated their BMI.

 

These cards were sent home with children. A workshop for parents was conducted by Dr. Das. She explained the importance of good and proper nutrition for children The Horlicks company presented a Weighing Machine to school.

Summer Camp was held  during the summer vacation (from 18th -25th May 2013).

 

Children enjoyed non-fire cooking, art and craft, singing, storytelling, nature walk, and yoga.

 

The last day of the camp a party was organized where they had games to play and tasty food to eat.
 

In March 2013 Mongrace children connected with a partner school, England Jane Kin Lane School in U.K. They received a parcel from the U.K partner School. Children got together in a classroom and waited with great excitement to open the parcel sent by their international friends.

 

A world map was hung on the wall and children were shown the route from India to England. They learnt the name of their partner school and were excited to know that they have children of their age in a school in UK and whom they can call their E pals.
 
The parcel contained cards printed with different coloured fingerprints of children.

Next to each fingerprint name of the child was written.  Some cards had beautiful drawings done by the children. The parcel also contained palm crosses, Easter Activity Book, Chicks decoration, Window gel stickers...all this made children really happy.
 
Later a display board was made with all the material that they received.
