Since April '03 till now (i.e. February 2010),
we have a total of 30 class groups with about 650 children
and a staff strength of 175 committed people working to
make the Shikshantar reality happen on a day-to-day basis.
The
seventh school year at Shikshantar commenced for
children on 25th March 2009.
Shikshantar
began its first school year on the 2nd of April, 2003
for children enrolled in Playgroup, Nursery, Kindergarten and
Class I. To celebrate the day, Shikshantar planted a banyan
tree in the rear portion of the primary block. Planted by the
Shikshantar team, the children and the parents, the event was
symbolic of the first step taken together by the growing
Shikshantar family.
As
another year progresses and as we build the school from
strength to strength, Shikshantar continues to plan meaningful
events for children to experience the wonder of discovering
life and the joy of sharing.
