KITE School's field trips

In the last week of July, 2009, it wasn't raining much, it was cloudy though. And we were just waiting for such a spell for two-three days!
We took our Junior and Senior KG kids to Chena Creek in our TATA Winger school bus on two consequitive days. The kids already had their EVE session on "How does it rain" and related topics, such as, water cycle, water-logging and water transport etc. earlier in July itself. All the children were so happy and excited.











It was real fun with learning. Some of them 'discovered' few things about nature on their own... a very funny tree, a weird insect and a mirror like drop on a leaf! They were exploring the surrounding freely. Of course, teachers, Principal Madam, maid and other staff were keeping a watchful eye on every child. Everyone accompanying the kids was instructed well about the dos and donts, lists, field trip cautions and supplies.









It was a learning experience for us also. We learnt the way children perceive complex things in simple ways. They also interpret in in their own ways. Educators should find the correlation and apply it in their explanation of concepts.

At KITE School, we have decided to have field trips as often as we can.

Can you suggest a new location which is not very far from our school and yet can be an exciting field trip point?
