Art and Skills—–Support Staff
Very rightly said…….It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge—–Albert Einstein.
This year was full of challenges and excitement for us (SurbhiTalwar-Sita Suwalka). We took the the utmost responsibility of taking art and craft classes for the support staff. Initially, we were enthusiastic and bothered how to go about it and finally, we started our first session with introduction and diary making activity in which they gave the reflection of each session.
Our goal was to make them do Best out of waste. Which included bangle making, it was reformed from old bangle. They were very happy when they saw this modification. We took the feedback and decided for the next session. Though Diwali was approaching we decided to make Toran, which was really appreciable. To make best out of waste we also opted making a handbag from old jeans and flower vase from the newspaper.
We thought of making some change so we included cooking activities like Pizza and Nan khatai.

This quote was really applicable to us throughout the year.
