With Vidhya Bhuvan School we cross the 900 mark...

The Vidhya Bhuvan School in Comba, Margao was set up by the Konkani Bhasha Mandal.

Konkani is the language of the people of Goa and also the Official language of the State. The organization aims is to bring about speedy development of Konkani language, literature and culture thereby promoting the cultural unity of Goa.

 

The School has around a 100 students from grade 1 to grade 5…The school is managed by a very enthusiastic and motivated group of teachers…and at the helm the principal Mr Anant Agni has a keen desire to encourage learning and promote the all round development of his students……

Besides the 1000 crane project…Tara trust volunteers will start conducting programmes for the children once a week…The principal was keen to start with social based programmes as some of the children are first generation learners and come from lower economic homes..

Nancy and Soraiya the Tara Volunteers were amazed and very happy to meet young enthusiastic and keen young minds…Our group of 54 children were well mannered and very keen on learning as much as they could…They were very positive and attentive during the entire presentation and painted their t-shirts beautifully…The wantes to know more about the 1000 crane story and Japan..

 

Simultaneously we also ran a small painting program for grades 1 to 4…What a treat that was…

 

We received positive feedback from the students..They are very keen that we return to conduct more programmes with them and they loved the program and the stories told…The teachers also gave us very positive feedback..
