𝐒𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐡 𝐀𝐩𝐩 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐠𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐌𝐚𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐭𝐫𝐚 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐚 !! 𝟐𝟐 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 & 𝟖 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬 associated with 𝐒𝐚𝐦𝐮𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐤 𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐛𝐡𝐢𝐲𝐚𝐧 (Community Teaching Group) based at 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐞 (Maharashtra) were given access to the 𝐒𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐡 𝐀𝐩𝐩 on 𝐃𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐢 day (31st Oct 2024). The students, living in nearby slum areas, are children of migrant labourers from North India. On 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝟖𝐭𝐡 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫, the Students and Teachers met at “𝐍𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐚” in Thane, for the 𝐒𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐡 𝐀𝐩𝐩 orientation session. The Teachers were given access to the 𝐒𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐡 𝐀𝐩𝐩, 2 weeks earlier, so that they get familiarised with the App before training their students. The students have been given a target to complete the “𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡” course and 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐬 have been announced for the 𝐓𝐨𝐩 𝟑 students. The lively setting under the shade of 𝐓𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐬, is a great way for the students, to start their learning journey, through the App. This is just a small beginning. The Centre caters to more than 𝟕𝟎𝟎 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 from 𝐒𝐭𝐝 𝟔𝐭𝐡 to 𝐒𝐭𝐝 𝟏𝟐𝐭𝐡, with the strong support of 𝟔𝟎 lady volunteers as 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬. We hope the App reaches most of the students in a phased manner 👍 Sharada Educational Trust wishes all the students - 𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 and we hope they make best use of the 𝐒𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐡 𝐀𝐩𝐩, to learn 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡 and do well in their career 👍 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐬 to our 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐁𝐨𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 - 𝐒𝐡𝐫𝐢 DINESH SHENOY 𝐣𝐢, for collaborating with the group and ensuring a strong foothold for the 𝐒𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐡 𝐀𝐩𝐩, in 𝐌𝐚𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐭𝐫𝐚 👍

Introducing 𝐌𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜 to 𝐫𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐭 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 enhances their cognitive and emotional development 🎼🎶 Studies have shown that children who engage with music have improved brain development, which help them perform better in academics, particularly in subjects like Math and languages. For many rural students, access to counselling or mental health resources is limited. Music provides a healthy outlet for emotions, helping students cope with stress, anxiety, and trauma. But unfortunately, 𝐌𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜 𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐬 are not part of the curriculum in all Govt schools in India. And to address this gap, Sharada Educational Trust is partnering with 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐚𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐡𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲 to launch 𝐎𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐌𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐜 𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 at 𝟐 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐭. 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐊𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐚 on a pilot basis, sometime in Dec 2024. The initiative should benefit about 𝟒𝟎 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 (2 batches) as well as their 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬 👍

We hope the "𝐆𝐢𝐟𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐥𝐞𝐝𝐠𝐞" will create a 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐭 among the 𝟏𝟑𝟓 kids studying in this school 👍

𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 - 𝐇𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐚 in Kustagi taluk of Koppal District, received the “𝐆𝐢𝐟𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐥𝐞𝐝𝐠𝐞” from Sharada Educational Trust🙏🏻 The Head Master - 𝐒𝐡𝐫𝐢 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐣𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐡, had approached us with a request to support the Library initiative in his school, about a month ago. The Library kit, ordered from Pratham Books, will benefit 𝟏𝟑𝟓 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 from 𝐒𝐭𝐝 𝟏𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝟕𝐭𝐡 👍 The 𝐋𝐢𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐫𝐲-𝐢𝐧-𝐚-𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦 kit is a portable, wall-mounted unit of up to 𝟏𝟎𝟎 colourful storybooks in English and Kannada on topics ranging from values, character, general knowledge, environment, biographies etc. Hope the children make 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐡𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐭, through the 𝑮𝒊𝒇𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝑲𝒏𝒐𝒘𝒍𝒆𝒅𝒈𝒆 📚

Watch this short video that encapsulates the "𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐋𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲" 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦, held at 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐭 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 - 𝐒𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐫𝐮, attended by 𝟏𝟐𝟎 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 from Std 5th to Std 8th, on 𝟐𝟔𝐭𝐡 𝐎𝐜𝐭 👍 Watch the  joy on their faces and the "𝐉𝐨𝐬𝐡" (energy level) !! A big round of applause to all the Teachers, especially SHWETHA P S and Priya Shivaprakash, for making the event a grand success 👏 👏

"𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐭 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐬” Unlike their urban counterparts, students from 𝐫𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐭 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥𝐬 are not fortunate to have 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐋𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲, as a subject, taught to them as part of their regular curriculum or as an extra curricular activity. Our 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐋𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲 program, targeted at rural kids (age group 8 to 14), doesn't involve "black-board" based teaching. Through the means of 𝐃𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 and 𝐐𝐮𝐢𝐳, students are taught the importance of a) Savings, b) Bank account, c) Insurance and about basic Finance. On 𝐒𝐚𝐭 𝟐𝟔𝐭𝐡 𝐎𝐜𝐭 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒, we organised a 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐋𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲 program at 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐭 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 - 𝐒𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐫𝐮 in Kanakapura taluk, attended by 𝟏𝟐𝟎 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 from 𝐒𝐭𝐝. 𝟓𝐭𝐡 to 𝟖𝐭𝐡. The program started with 𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, participated by 𝟐𝟎 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 in 4 teams. The stage plays followed a similar theme with topics like (a) Bank Loan v/s Moneylenders, (b) Importance of Money in an household, (c) Functioning of a Bank and (d) How a Bank loan comes to a Farmer's rescue.   The children came from their homes in drama costume and the scene resembled a carnival of sorts. 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐬 were awarded to the winners of the competition and every child was given an 𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐤𝐢𝐭 as a take-away gift, for attending the event of such importance to them. The program ended with a 𝐐𝐮𝐢𝐳 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 on 𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐜 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 followed by light refreshments.   The children went back home wiser with the knowledge gained during the event and hope the message spreads within their families and neighbourhood 👍🏻 Sharada Educational Trust wishes to 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 SHWETHA P S and Priya Shivaprakash, for successfully organising the program 🙏🏻

Teachers serve as role models. When they demonstrate 𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 abilities, students are more likely to emulate these skills, which are vital for their future academic and professional success 👍 𝐏𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 is a foundational skill that helps Teachers communicate effectively with their students, parents and other stakeholders. Importantly, this skill also helps them in their professional development and leadership. We understand the need and hence we organised a session on 𝐏𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 by 𝐌𝐬 Uma Nataraj, as part of our 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐤 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦 for 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬. The session held on Thu 17th Oct 2024, was attended by Teachers from 𝐑𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐫𝐚, 𝐁𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐫 & 𝐊𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐬 of Karnataka. Kudos to 𝐌𝐬 Uma Nataraj, for her passion to teach this subject to the 𝐆𝐨𝐯𝐭 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬, that will go a long way in improving their communications skills 👏 👏
