Free, Quality Education II

Previous Meetup: 9 members attended <2 from here>. We discussed about a govt.-aided school in Dommasandra which is open to experiments for betterment of kids. We plan to work on multiple ideas & areas viz; Edu-counselling, Summer Camp, Teachers' Training, creation of a FabLabs, SchoolCampus greening & painting, etc. We are motivated & have specific goals to achieve over next 4months.

PS: Creation of b&b facilities oncampus for education enthusiasts and for people on sabbatical who wish to experiment and teach is part of core agenda of our community & this meetup group too. A better interaction & bond with kids is part of the long-drawn strategy and process to enrich their life experiences & to become better adults!
