Shanti Sahyog Play/Pre School Tughlakabad VillageTRANSFORMINGLIVES TRANSFORMINGLIVES

We would like to begin by thanking the Australian High Commission for their much-needed grant for school infrastructure, which enabled us to fulfill our long cherished goal of opening a Play/Pre School in a Village, on 3 July 2017. Our decade long experience in educating underprivileged children reveals that those students who have not experienced the formal structure of a Pre School, perform poorly in primary & secondary school. Our Pre Schools aim to provide adequate environment to nurture social standing and mental capability to help these students to adjust in mainstream education.

Like our two Preschools in Kalkaji, our 3rd Preschool in Tughlakabad Village is also run according to Nai Talim - Gandhi's views on basic education, wherein students are taught along with the 3 R's, dignity of labour; humility, empathy and respect for their teachers and school mates. Learning becomes fun through educational tools, building blocks, puzzles and games. The curriculum prepares them for entry into formal education. Creativity is stimulated through extracurricular activities like singing, dance, music, recitation and skits. Picnics and visits to places like the zoo, museums and historical sites are arranged periodically.

The School doubles up as a Center for Remedial, Non-Formal & Adult Education in the afternoon.

In answer to the demand by the youth in Tughlakabad Village for Skill

Development programs, we started our Vocational Centre to give

training in Computer Application & Cutting & Tailoring in June 2017. The

response is overwhelming! The aim is to help young people – especially

women find employment leading to economic independence /

empowerment. Our Computer Instructor Suraj is an excellent teacher.

To date 34 students have enrolled in the Computer Application Basic

Course.
