ADVENTURES / PICNIC

One of the best memory, we carry of our school life is certainly the school trips and picnics which were full of fun and learning. As students, children are bound by a number of rules, do’s and don’ts. These rules and restrictions are important for the overall development of a child, it is also highly important that once in a while they are let out free to explore and experiment. School trips provide children an opportunity to come out from the confines and groom themselves to get ready to face the challenges of life alone. School trip add significantly to the overall personality development of a child and bring out their inner qualities like leadership, team building, trust, and respect.

When a child comes out of the protected home environment for a school trip, there is also a sense of responsibility and belongingness that emerges, which is important to build a strong personality of a child. Apart from the fun side, school picnics and overnight trips also have a lot of learning coming out from them. Students are exposed to the world outside their homes and classrooms to learn about nature, man-made wonders, heritage, arts and science, languages, and culture.

School trips that involve adventure activities and sports can become the foundation of future interests in children. Such activities help children explore sports beyond phones and tablets thereby inducing physical activity that eventually helps them stay healthy. Walks, treks and other adventure activities also help in addressing issues like childhood obesity which is currently on the rise.
