Shiksha
We are establishing Palan Pathshala as supplementary education centers in various villages with the support of dedicated individuals, known as didi bhaiya, who are qualified and knowledgeable within their own communities. These local volunteers play a vital role in the establishment and operation of Palan Pathshala, ensuring that children in the villages have access to quality education and holistic development opportunities. Their commitment and expertise contribute to the success of Palan’s educational initiatives, making a positive impact on the lives of children in these rural areas. We we’re not only focusing on academic education but also on the overall development of children by incorporating activities like yoga, healthcare, nutrition, life skills, festivals, sports, and cultural enrichment. By providing a loving and caring atmosphere, you create a conducive learning environment for the children from deprived and destitute backgrounds.
We usually run this PATHSHALA in two segments –
A) Palan Shishu Vatika :-
For the children we serve, we follow the concept of “Learning while playing.” We engage in interactive play sessions with the children and create a nurturing environment where they can thrive. We also celebrate festivals with great love and affection, fostering a sense of joy and togetherness.Our primary objective is to create an atmosphere filled with love and care, enabling the children to flourish and reach their full potential. We specifically focus on children aged 6-7 years who come from vulnerable backgrounds, have experienced victimization, and are living in conditions where starvation and malnutrition are prevalent. By providing a safe and loving environment coupled with playful learning experiences, we aim to empower these children to overcome their challenges, acquire knowledge, and develop essential skills for a brighter future.
B) Palan Tarun Vatika :-
Education is the means to raise one’s issue and concerns democratically. With the help of education, an aim to create a society where everyone lives with an honour, liberty, dignity and equality. In this project, we make learn their –
1) Basic Education: In Palan Pathshala, we focus on providing a well-rounded education to students, including subjects like Hindi, English, Maths, and General Knowledge. We employ a combination of interactive tools and traditional classroom teaching methods to enhance their learning experience.
2) Yoga and Pranayam: We begin each day at the Pathshala with prayer, yoga, and pranayama. We believe that practicing yoga helps students develop a balanced and healthy lifestyle.
3) Social Harmony: Indian culture has always emphasized social harmony, without any discrimination or untouchability. We strive to revive these values and promote a sense of unity and inclusivity among our students.
4) Social Education: Our aim is to provide education that nurtures the mental, intellectual, and physical development of our students. Alongside academic subjects, we conduct sports and cultural activities to foster holistic growth.
5) Cleanliness and Health: We consider our village as a sacred place and it is our collective responsibility, as villagers, to keep it clean and beautiful. We emphasize the importance of cleanliness and hygiene for the well-being of the community.
6) Sports: Sports play a vital role in our Pathshala. We regularly engage in sports activities with the children and organize camps both within and outside the Pathshala premises. Through sports, we teach valuable life lessons such as discipline, responsibility, self-confidence, and teamwork.
By incorporating these aspects into our Palan Pathshala curriculum, we aim to provide a comprehensive education that encompasses not only academic subjects but also holistic development, social values, cleanliness, and physical fitness.
