The Good side of Evil

It was five in the evening and everyone held their breath, waiting for the arrival of the witches, ghosts and gypsies. When they did arrive, the cheers from the children and staff greeted them. The witches had decided to put a program for us. The 4^th, 5th and 6^th grade children danced for the song “Thriller” by Michael Jackson.

Then we had a small fanfare of many interesting games and activities put together for us. They were beanbags, scavenger hunt, face painting, three-legged race, art and craft, counting buttons, and many other very awesome activities. The prizes were chocolates. Everyone immensely enjoyed himself or herself.

After dinner, the 8^th and 12^th grade students went trick or treating. They wore weird costumes and danced around the school. They got a huge booty of sweets and chocolates from the staff and volunteers of Shanti Bhavan. Over all, Halloween was scary and fun at the same time.

Robots Invade Shanti Bhavan!

Here is our volunteer Eduard, teaching two of the 11th graders how to make robots! Eduard's university donated all of the robotics equipment. It develops the childrens' computer, physics, math, and creative thinking skills. After Eduard leaves, the children will still be able to learn and play with the robots!

Recently we celebrated Teacher and Mother's day at Shanti Bhavan. This was a chance for us to show our Aunties and teachers how much we love them and appreciate all their hard work. We got a day off from school too :) .








This is Bharat (a.k.a Barack) strutting his stuff in a fashion show as part of the Teacher and Mother's Day performance.

Rakshabhandan!

Here are Rajini and Manimala, and Prameela (teacher) demonstrating how we celebrate Rakshabandan. Rakshabandan is a day when sisters show affection for their brother by tying a Rakhi (woven bracelet). The tying of the Rakhi symbolizes that the sister is under the protection of her brother.

Beware the Ides of March (if you don't study)!

The 10th grade studied very hard for their board exams this March,

but they still found time to have a little fun.

Here we're about to enjoy Julius Caesar on video.
