Kaggaladu visit: Phase 2 visit 2
Members of the core team visited Kaggaladu village on the 14th of Nov to celebrate Childrens Day with the students of the
An activity has been assigned to the kids of 5th to 7th classes. Five KG cardboards, poster paints and crayons have been given to them and we’ve told them to make posters which depict the village, the agriculture, the birds, the water and their school. The posters are to be made ready in a month’s time when we visit next. We’ve promised prizes for the best one. This was given with two main intentions. One is for the kids to appreciate better the village and school, and secondly, to give them opportunities to bring out their creativity in the form of art.
After the school visit we had a brief chat with one of the panchayati leaders. We realized that if anything has to come out of our efforts, continued visits and pressure will be required from our side.
After that we went bird watching. We had received prior information that some storks had already arrived. At a nearby lake we spotted 4 kinds of water birds and probably one painted stork.
Our next visit is planned towards the end of december and another one in Republic Day. By then the birds are expected to have arrived. We hope bird watchers and volunteers would join us next time.
