Excursion

We took the K5 children on a delightful trip to Bal Bhavan in Cubbon Park, and it was a fun and an exciting day for the children. They had an absolute blast as they eagerly enjoyed the rides on a toy train that meandered through the landscape and the boat ride. There was a play area with fun play equipment that the children enjoyed playing. Their laughter and excitement filled the air as they explored the attractions, and the entire experience was both fun and educational, leaving them with cherished memories of this wonderful adventure.

After School Program

The After-School Program (ASP) is a tuition initiative designed for students who have graduated from Building Blocks and are now enrolled in primary, middle, or high school under our sponsorship program.

As part of Project +10, offline classes have commenced for students from 1st to 5th standard, along with the provision of evening snacks

Boeing Volunteers Visit

On the 22nd, we had the privilege of welcoming Boeing volunteers—Ms. Madhusmitha, Ms. Soumya, Ms. Pragna, Ms. Arpuda, and Mr. Praveen—to our K3, K4, and K5 classes for engaging art and crafts activities. The day began with a brief tour of the classrooms, following which each volunteer joined a different class to actively participate in and assist with the activities alongside our teachers and students.

The experience was truly delightful for everyone involved, and the children thoroughly enjoyed their time with the volunteers. We deeply appreciate the volunteers’ enthusiasm and support. They also shared their intention to visit regularly, planning to return once a month with an even larger team. During their visit, they captured some heartwarming moments with the children through photographs.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to them for their kindness and valuable time, and we eagerly look forward to their future visits!

Parent Teacher Meeting

Across different centers, we successfully conducted community meetings for our Project+ 10 students parents, achieving remarkable participation rates. Our social work team Ms. Christina and Ms. Pushpa discussed the importance of students focusing on their studies, attending school regularly, maintaining cleanliness, and completing homework and projects. She also reassured parents that uniform expenses for the next academic year would be covered, which brought them great relief and happiness. A separate meeting was also held to address specific concerns with individual parents. These meetings reflect a strong sense of community engagement and support for the children's growth and education.
