FOR THE LOVELY CHILDREN WHO DELIGHTED US WITH THEIR VISIT ON MARCH 8: March 8 is celebrated world-wide as a day where special attention is given to issues related to women. At the Goethe-Zentrum Trivandrum, children from Brightland Discovery spent this day focusing on a very special woman: Mother Nature. On their first visit to the Zentrum, these students of German attended a workshop conducted by Travancore Natural History Society, during which two documentary films “Home” and “Butterfly Park”by Shri Suresh Elamon, the award-winning wildlife filmmaker were shown. At the interaction with Mr. Ramesh that followed, the children of Brightland Discovery showed their keen interest in conservation issues through their very relevant questions. This was followed by an exhibition of photographs on the wealth of bio-diversity in our environment. Post Lunch, the children interacted with the teachers of the Goethe-Zentrum. After a memory quiz on the photo exhibition conducted by their Germna teacher Ms Devi, the children played various language games like “Tambola” with German words and grouping of words related to a topic. It was then time to wow the students and teachers of Goethe-Zentrum with their cultural programme. Impeccable pronunciation of the words of a German song on various seasons allowed the children to sing and enact it without a microphone. The day was wound up with a treasure hunt where they could explore the premises of the Goethe-Zentrum on their own to get the right answers to the questions given. And they did!! Packing in all the prizes won on this day, the bright sparks of Brightland Discovery School sang the school anthem for Ms Sudha Pradeep, the Head of the Language Department and won her heart. These children who are examples of the fact that the best education is learning values for life left the Goethe-Zentrum team already looking forward to the next visit by the children of a very Bright Land who learn by discovering their world….
