  • REPORT on DILLI DARSHAN CLASS III “What We
    REPORT ON DILLI DARSHAN CLASS III “What we learn with pleasure, we never forget! “ Through educational school trips, students can have amazing learning experiences while they are having fun. Stepping away from their regular school environment opens up their minds and helps them retain information better. Keeping the above in mind, a Dilli Darshan trip was organized for the students of class III on 25th September 2019. The children were all enthusiastic and excited as they looked forward to visit Qutub Minar, India Gate, Teen Murti Bhavan and National Rail Museum along with spending a fun filled day with their friends. The first destination was the magnificent Qutub Minar, whose history lures a large number of tourists from all parts of the world. They learnt minute details about the inscriptions and architecture involved in the making of the grand tower. The next halt was at the India Gate situated at Rajpath. The children were acquainted with the importance of this prominent monument as it commemorates the names of the Indian soldiers who lost their lives in the First World War They were also informed about the significance of the Amar Jawan Jyoti, the burning flame which is considered immortal, to honour the sacrifice of the soldiers martyred in the war. Children curiously observed some of the important state buildings as the bus drove past Supreme Court, High Court, Secretariat buildings, Rashtrapati Bhawan and Parliament House. After a delectable lunch at the Bikanerwala, children visited the splendid Teen Murti Bhavan which was the residence of the first Prime Minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru and has now been converted into a memorial.

  • Dilli Darshan Report Class Iii
    DILLI DARSHAN REPORT CLASS III “The best journeys in life are those that answer questions you never thought to ask.” On 7th November 2017, class III went for Dilli Darshan. All eager and enthusiastic students travelled to Delhi by bus to learn more about the heritage of Delhi. The children were amazed on seeing QutubMinar, the highest minaret in India which was constructed with sand stone and marble by Qutubuddin Aibak. The next stop was at Bal Bhavan which was founded by Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru. It was established to give a nationwide mission for creative enhancement of children through play in a child friendly environment according to their age, aptitude and ability. The next venue of the day was Teen Murti Bhavan. It is the former residence of the first Prime Minister of India, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. It houses the Nehru Memorial library and the museum which was a great visual experience for our children. It also served as a tool in familiarizing students with the objects and manuscripts which represented the lifestyle of our great leader. At the National Rail Museum, students were delighted to explore different kinds of engines, coaches and wagons. Fun ride on the ‘Toy Train’ was enjoyed thoroughly by all. Delicious snacks and a scrumptious lunch at Bikanerwala were served enroute to keep the energy levels high. Elated and satisfied by the new knowledge gained, students returned bringing along wonderful memories which would never fade and always remain fresh in their minds. .
