A field trip was organised for the students of Class I on 31st August to Sabarmati Ashram as part of the POI unit, ‘My City-Ahmedabad ’. The main objective of the visit was to explore and learn more about the heritage sites of our city to help them gain a deeper understanding of the city’s rich history, culture, and heritage through first-hand experience.
During their journey, the students observed several iconic landmarks of Ahmedabad. They saw the Sidi Saiyyed Mosque, Atal Bridge, Patang Hotel, and the historic Ellis Bridge of the World Heritage City- Ahmedabad. They also explored the ashram and observed various places and exhibits related to Gandhiji’s life. They learnt about his principles of truth, non-violence, simplicity, cleanliness, and self-discipline. The visit helped students connect their classroom learning with a real historical place. They showed great curiosity and enthusiasm while exploring the ashram and learning about Gandhiji’s life and teachings. Overall, the field trip was an educational, meaningful, and enriching learning experience for the students.
