 A PRISTINE CONNECT WITH NATURE : TRIP  TO  PRATAPGARH FARMS

“Travel is rich with learning opportunities, and the ultimate souvenir is a broader perspective."

Travel expands your horizons and school life cannot be accomplished without the fun of educational tours and excursions. These trips are tailor made to facilitate the students to know and understand the real, multicultural world. A host of activities are undertaken as a part of trips which act as a catalyst to think out of the box and broaden the outlook. RPSIS 89, discreetly organizes educational trips to strategically important places and facilitates for students to reach out for information beyond the text books.

In pursuance of the same vision, the School organized  a “Learning Outside Classroom” , outdoor trip for Grades VI-VIII on 10th December to Pratapgarh Farms, a safe and secure place full of adventure, learning and fun amid the rolling green farmlands in the Jhajjar town.

There were several Hands on Experience and Projects that students experienced such as Agriculture, Horticulture , Dairy Farming, Poultry Farming, Waste Management, Pottery, Water Harvesting, Waste Management, etc. The students were also sensitized to rural settings and saw village lifestyles. They enjoyed a host of activities and rides such as camel ride, bullock cart ride, , tug of war, blind alley games, Crossing the Burma Bridge, Trampoline jump, drawing well water, Commando net,Double ride bridge ,Tarzan swing ,Rope ladders , Archery ,Dart ,Gun shooting .They also visited a mini zoo where animals and birds like emu , hens , pigeons and goats were kept in their natural habitat.

This was one of a kind of experience for most of the students who have had no such exposure to this kind of a mix of urban and rural setting. The sumptuous layout of the delicacies for the Breakfast, Lunch and evening snacks was relished by all the members of the school team. It was a day filled with adventure and helped the team to build a strong connection with each other. 

We all enjoyed it and here are a few glimpses of our day-out ...
