We all are aware of the joy of giving week and the goonj initiative .let me just share what g5 has started to do in that respect.Parul came to our grade and gave all of us an opportunity to be a part of the collection drive for goonj Parul shared her goonj visit and a story to inspire students. So today 4 students of g5 went to spread awareness of the collection drive to 3 local schools.
The first school was Xaviers ,Hansol.The principal graciously obliged us and called g8 students for the interaction .g5 then got to know that they had to speak in Gujarati as the students were
guj.med.students.Dhrumil took over the charge and spoke well while the rest chipped in.
Next was Rachana school.The principals were on leave but students managed to interact with g5 who were having their sports time.Sejal and Kshitij were the speakers here.
The last stop was Rosary school. As they had exams students talked to the principal .She was pretty happy and appreciated Riverside for all what is being done!!!!!Shubhangi spoke here.
They all came back smiling and shared their experience with the rest of the class.It was a question .How would people believe the efforts of goonj ?have they visited the center ?(A teacher in one of the school had asked them )It led to a discussion and a collective understanding was built.
rigor spread in front of me..........am in awe of my students
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!They are real gurus.....
