An Euphoric Visit to "Prerna- A school of mentally disable student"


Hello readers!!!!!!
                Sorry for updating you late….but from next time we’ll try to be on time without much delay of time.
An Euphoric Visit to Prerna

                So herewith I’m coming with updates for year 2014…….as we know main motto of our “KARNAMANI MITRA MANDAL” is religious and social work…..In Paryushan parva  , we does the religious work , but we also keep in mind our second and one of the important motto “social work” ….As you know last year we did this in the form of distribution of “Kambals” to poor people and road-siders…..so this year we are also coming with one such similar type of social welfare work…….
                    We first think for various alternatives such as visit to an orphanage or to spend time with old people who are alone………but as we know, these days many organizations are doing these type of social work, we try to do something different as always….finally we decide that we should go to a school for mentally disable children…a part of our society, but no one is ready to look at them or have some time for them…..
                     Now the major task was where to go and when and main concern was that whether this type of school will allow us or not…..after trying at various schools we finally decided to go to “PRERNA” school located in Mirzapur in front of St. Xaviers school, suggested by Parshva….this organization is looking after many disable children since long…..so Niket and Parshva went there to decide whether they will allow or not and what is the no. of students they are taking care etc.  Principal of the school, Mr. Ravat was very co-operative in nature and he was very glad to hear our plan and he readily gave us permission that we can come on weekends and we decided to go there on 9th March, Saturday during 3 to 5...they were looking after around 30 such children…It was surprising to us and we were amazed with the way they dealt with these students and try to make them self-responsible…
                    So we started the planning of food-items that we’ll take there and lots of meetings were happened, think for various activities by which we can give those children pleasure….we decide to have games like musical-chair ,  ball in doll(one minute game) , running competition etc. . Each and every member of the group was excited  with this plan and preparations started..each and everyone was allocated specific task….Harshit , Viral and Nishant were given the task of bringing the food –items…Meet took the responsibility for finding good gifts..Samkit look after the clerical work and many miscellaneous tasks were given to other members also…..
                    Finally the day came….everyone was excited …it was going to be a new kind of experience for every one…we gathered nearly around 1:30 and reached the destination nearly around 1:45…the students were given information about us…they were also excited for it…they gave us a worm welcome…first we have introduction about each and every child and the staff members there…

Then we start the games like ball in doll and running competition,musical chair…..We divided students in three groups and likewise different game for each group. For students less than 12 years, we had Ball in Doll, a one minute game; For Students between 12 to 18 years, we held running compittion; For Students above 18, we had musical chairs...

  We were surprised to see that though they were not able to succeed initially but they were not disappointed with that…it was very inspirational for us, because we get disheartened very instantaneously in our routine life…
We should try to have this attitude and thank the god for making us like 100% pure gold!!!!!!!


 After games , the winners were given prizes….they were very glad to see such prizes…

Then we decided to have some entertainment …For that we started singing songs on demand of those children , which was not a usual practice for us , but they were very pleased to listen these songs and started dancing , we also joined them in that and it was a wonderful scene….Dhruvil , Niket , Abhinav ,Hiren,Dhanik, and Divy were like totally child….they were completely lost…at the same time other members Rushil,Vicky,Jay, Nishant , Harshit ,Preet, Ronak and Kaushil were making sandwiches…..and we distribute sandwiches and cold-drink among students…

finally we gave a small gift to each and every child, just another way to to make them happy and also congratulate the staff members and principal for doing such a noble work….finally when we were about to leave they ask us to come very frequently and also appreciate our mandal for doing such activities.. We thank them by giving them a special Thanks Card. designed by Samkit Shah
