VENUE: Rashtrapati Bhavan Museum and India Gate
The students of class 6 – sections A to E – went on an educational trip to the Rashtrapati Bhavan Museum on 17th December, Tuesday. The trip to the museum was followed by a visit to India Gate. The students of each section were accompanied by their class teacher as well as a co-teacher.
The visit turned out to be extremely fruitful as the students got a chance to see various historical artefacts of our nation along with getting a glimpse of the estate. The students were taken on a comprehensively guided tour by the members of the museum. Some of the major spots of attraction were - the first draft of Indian Constitution; statues of King George V and Queen Mary; the paintings and gifts presented to various presidents, among others. They were shown 3-D figures of some of the prominent leaders. Two movies were also shown to the children – one on Mahatma Gandhi’s life and work and another exploring the important aspects related to the country’s presidents. The trip concluded with a visit to India Gate, reminding students of the values our nation was built upon.
