“By education I mean an all-round drawing out of the best in the child and man-body, mind and spirit.” –Mahatma Gandhi
The world behind the books is a world full of colorful information which enriches the mind of the children. Field trips are a way to ease the burden and make the children aware about their subject in a practical manner. It helps the children to open their eyes to new environments and new cultures and positively shapes their perspective. To make the students aware about Mahatma Gandhi, ‘Father of Our Nation’, K.R. Mangalam World School, Faridabad organized a field trip to Rajghat and National Gandhi Museum on 3rd October, 2019 for its III-V graders. Children paid their tribute to Mahatma Gandhi on his Samadhi- which is treated as a place of great reverence. Children also visited the National Gandhi Museum. They saw a collection of the original relics, books, journals and documents, photographs, audio-visual materials, exhibitions, art pieces and other memorabilia closely connected with Mahatma Gandhi, Kastur Ba and the Indian Freedom Struggle.
The knowledge amongst their surroundings not only helped to educate the children in a practical manner, but would help to sustain longer in their mind. It was an over-whelming experience.
