Technology based education:
We have adopted a scientifically designed curriculum. Also, the Field Coordinators carry battery-operated TVs and laptops to the centers on their bikes and give an opportunity for education through multi-media. The children are also taught basic computer skills. Thus we try to maximize their capacity to learn in spite of the fact that they live in villages without electricity.

Swachh Gaon!
As part of the Republic day celebration, the National flag was hoisted in all the centres. But the students and teachers in Baramasiya Child Care Centre decided to celebrate Republic day in a unique way. They went around and collected all the waste in the village and disposed of it. Though unaware of the Prime Minister’s program they made their village clean!
