Class Picnic
(Class - II)
Excitement
began early in the morning when the children of
class II went for a picnic to Vasant Vatika.
They all went around the park a for a nature
walk and explored the flora and fauna of the
park. They all had gone well-equipped with
rackets, bats and footballs to play games like
cricket, badminton and football. A few children
sat in groups and sang songs. This was followed
by a somewhat long session of yummy tiffins. The
children explored the park freely recharged
after a sumptuous round of goodies and enjoyed
themselves thoroughly.
This short

refreshing and rejuvenating for the children

In the words of Alfred Hubbard, "Education is not preparation for life, but life
itself." Standing on the threshold of the 21st century two schools
located in different hemispheres were united in thought and action to bring
light the true aim of education.
Mauritius College established by the honourable Mr. J. N. Roy and Delhi Public
School, Vasant Kunj a leading public school of the country entered into the
second year of the exchange programme initiated in the year 2005.
From 11th June to 22nd June 2006 a group of ten students
and two teachers visited Mauritius for a Pedogogical and Cultural Exchange
Programme. This ten day programme aimed towards providing an exposure to young
minds and build socially oriented, value based torch bearers for a better
tomorrow.
During their stay the students and teachers were initiated into learning French.
The group was also taken around the various enigmatic sights that nature has
blessed the country with. Mauritius truly is God's Paradise on Earth.
As the
students and teachers stayed with their respective host families, it gave all of
them a peek into the sociological set up of the country. Mauritius is also known
as Little India Overseas - which is very true as demographically speaking the
country has 60% Indian population.
The most memorable part of the programme for all was finding new friends and
families across the seas. The group at Delhi Public School, Vasant Kunj now
eagerly awaits the arrival of their Mauritian counterparts which will take place
sometime in the month of November.
