We request you to grace the occasion and give your blessings to the endeavour.
Aashna (The FRIEND) is a pilot project for quality education for a few select students of the lower strata of the society. This initiative was conceived by our resourceful team leader Smt. Sreekala Warrier and supported by WCW western region. Based on the feedback of the project it is planned to expand it to other school in the coming years. To kick start the program a workshop was organized to train teachers for conducting the classes. 12 young students of the undergraduate level from Bhavan�s college, Andheri had volunteered for a two day workshop. It was arranged at the home of Mr. Krishnan & Mrs. Mahima Krishnan on 14th and 15th July 2017. The targeted students are from Grade 3 & Grade 4 and the course includes English, Maths & Holisitic living and hygiene. The program will continue till the end of the current school year. The course is intended as a supplemental study along with their normal school program and the school and students are already selected for it. On 14th Ms. Veena was the guide and moderator for the interactive discussion in the first session. The WCW office bearers were also introduced and program outline was generally explained. The second session was moderated by Smt. Geetha Balakrishnan and she had given various guidelines for Maths teaching.
