A Plant a Child

Each child would be given a plant on the date of joining. It will be in the school premises for the whole academic year. Each flower pot will hold the names of the kid. Each day the teachers / care takers will guide them in watering the plants.
This practice is to create an interest in the child's mind for gardening. At this age, the word global warming may sound Greek and Latin to them and would be difficult for them to understand that plants / trees play a major role in saving the environment around us.
As an education institution it is our role to make them socially responsible. Hence we have chosen this idea!

Dental check-up

Almost 30% of the kids have some problem in their teeth these days. There is nothing to blame about the child. Just for the sake of comfortableness or to divert the kids, parents give them chocolates. This becomes a habit and eventually causes problem in teeth. So we would be arranging for a dental check-up. The purpose is to make the child understand the importance of teeth and how to maintain it by brushing and having control on eatables that might damage the teeth.

About the child from their parents

At the time of admission, we ask the parents to list out the strength and weakness of the kid. The parents are requested to list out the points that they wish to change in their child. For example, the child may be an addict of chocolates (all kids these days know almost 5-6 names of the chocolates) and the parent is concerned very much about the teeth and wants the child to reduce eating chocolates. Given this point, we would take necessary steps such that he/she reduces eating chocolates. Also the list of points would be reviewed on the parents-teacher meeting and the change chart will be put in the kid's file. May be if not all at least a few things can be changed at Hello kids Ilanthalir!
