      Trips to historical places help children complement what is taught in the classroom. Historical places are a treasure trove of information and offer abundant opportunities for children to discover many interesting and curious things. These visits are a great way to get the children started with the habit of exploring and discovering.

      Students of class III went on an educational trip to the UNESCO World Heritage Site Qutab Minar Delhi on Friday ,August 26, 2022. The children were extremely excited about their excursion as they left from school, accompanied by their teachers, they got into line to enter the complex, eager as they were to see the red sandstone and marble edifice.

       A long walk inside the minar seemed a beautiful journey. The children not only saw the 72.5 m tall monument but were also guided to observe the beautiful architecture, the Quwwat-Ul-Islam Mosque, Ala-i – Darwaza, Alai Minar and the lush layout. Besides having a great time during the excursion, the students learnt a lot about Indian heritage. It was indeed an enriching experience.

        Visit to 'Spencer's Retail Store'

        Field trips play an important role in learning. They link the classroom experience with the outside world and in doing so they drastically improve the process of learning. Learning Objective of this educational excursion was to help the kids explore their choices and practically understand the healthy and non-healthy food.

         In order to connect with our inquiry in a better way we chose to go on a field trip to 'Spencer's Retail Store' on August 23, 2022 for pre nursery and nursery classes. The children saw a wide variety of food and goods which help us to follow healthy habits on a day to day basis. They identified healthy and unhealthy food very enthusiastically.

        The trip was a success as the students exhibited high level of enthusiasm and at the same time followed the essential agreements, like walking in a line, listening to their teacher and even greeted people with their smiles. They were principled and it was truly an enriching experience that helped them enhance their social skills.

        This educational, interactive experience is sure to leave a lasting impression with the young  TSS’ians.
