“Happiness is not so much as having in sharing. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”
Queens’ College believes in not just giving but also ensuring that it makes a difference. Our school’s Seva Club planned a visit of Class XII students to “Mahesh Drishtiheen Kalyan Sangh “, a school for children with lost vision. They got the golden opportunity to meet these talented children who have transformed their weaknesses into strengths and have mastered the art of living. They observed the lifestyle of these children and learned how to be content with what they have.
The school showed us how the children there learn the braille scripts, alphabets, and braille books, and how well-versed the children are in it. They showed their school’s braille library, classrooms, art room, music room, etc.
Our students also planned some activities and events for them. They did a musical show with instruments first and later some students sang for the children there. A guess the song game was organized for the children there to enjoy. The children loved the events and were overjoyed and content with our visit.
Our students donated school bags, biscuits, chocolates, and many more eatables to the school. The children there make handmade items such as artificial colorful flowers, rakhis, jute bags, and many more creative and out-of-the-box items which just proves how gifted they are. Students also contributed by buying these items and were willing to contribute even more.
Not only the children there but also our students were delighted and enlightened by this overwhelming visit and were determined to make sure that the flame of humanity will be alive.
