The
students of 10th IGCSE celebrated World Literacy Day. All the
students and drivers were assembled in the amphitheatre as Mr. Manmohan Jain,
the chairman of the Indian Literacy Project arrived. He discussed the
importance of literacy withal of us and told the drivers about the “open
school”-an initiative taken up by his organization. We were taken aback by the
interest the drivers showed in completing their education. After all their
questions were answered, each student was assigned to a driver and we headed to
the ICT lab. The drivers were all seated and we explained to them the benefits
of having an e-mail id. We then helped them create their own e-mail id-s
according their preferences. By the end of the activity, all the drivers had
their own e-mail ids and were sending mails to each other. We interviewed few of
the drivers to know the feedback and they were greatly
thankful to us. We all learned that if you have the passion and drive, you
achieve the unthinkable.
