Field Trip: My School(theme)

A field trip was organized for our dear children to sensitize them for the ongoing theme ' My School". We visited our sister concern Oakridge International School, Gachibowli. The learning began as soon as they stepped into the premises of Oakridge International School.
They were introduced to the security who welcomed them warmly at the gate. After which they were taken near the mango tree where they had their rhyme session, they were then taken around the school, first to the play ground where they had running race and frog race amongst themselves which they really enjoyed.. to see their radiant faces please check out the "SELFIE" taken by our student Saamer.
The students were then introduced to the Head Mistress, Coordinator, teachers and the helpers. We took the little ones to the "Toy Library", where they had a story corner where our teacher Vijaya had a story session, exploring the toy library with slides was exciting too.
They peeped into the class rooms and it ended with the group picture. It was a great fun-filled learning trip for children.
