Visit to old age home 3

Today the day was really a fun day. As last time I was with grandfathers (Nanas) I promised them to show the movie they asked for but unfortunately this time I was selected for Nani ward. As I had planned for a movie I started to setup. It was amazing experience to see all grandmothers (Nanis) to see them so happy. Their faces were literally glowing up when I took out my laptop and asked them to sit around and be comfortable. I asked them which movie they want to see and one of the grandmothers asked me which movie I have and will be showing to them. I told them that as I have came in Nani ward (section of grandmothers) first time I have the latest movie “Ajab Prem Ki Gajab Kahani”. They asked me about the background and the actors. I answered all their questions and started the movie. I asked them if there was any problem in watching or sound system but there was no problem. They were so interested that they didn’t even distract for a second. Sometimes they were unable to make out the word spoken in movie so I helped them and told them the script. Few new terms and things which were spoken and shown in movie were new to them so I helped them in understanding it. If happiness is considered as the global issue and is really necessary for all then I think I was successful.

Preparation of walkathon

While discussing about the best athletes of the world, it came in our mind that we should also conduct some athletic events. First, we all agreed to mini-marathon of 5-6 km but then we concluded that it will be very difficult for children of junior classes. We decided to plan for a walkathon. After consulting with our supervisor, Mukul became the in charge of the distributing the responsibilities. He made list as follows:

Task

Students, who will arrange for the things

Fliers

Kaustubh

First aid box (3 sets)

Ambulance

My first job was to make route for walkathon and Nishad was with me. I went to Google maps and started searching for our school. It was very difficult for me to search because of low network and I was not getting proper internet signals. After trying for a long time I succeeded in getting it. With the help of screen snap shot I took its snap and found the route around school.

Gardening 3

Wow! Each time I come here and these incredible plants amaze me more and more. This time when we came here they were full of vegetables and flowers. There were chilies and lady fingers hanging in the branches. It really felt great watching them grow. Now, I can imagine what a mother feels watching her child grow. We all worked as a team and the result of our hard work and idea was in front of us. Mihan is a developing area and here we have very less trees, this was our small try to reduce the deforestation problem and pollution problem. This will not end and soon I will be starting a new project. May be on under CAS but it’s for life long.
