Visit to Deaf & Dumb school

A school which is just front of my house,Whenever I do Exercises or sit in the evening on the terrace these innocent,evercharming Happy little chaps attract my attention, their faces are always full of expressions ,unfortunately they are deaf & dumb.Sometimes I think - they can not speak nor can listen, still are facing life with courage and entusiasm, & we people who are well to do are physically fit feels depressed sometimes.
I always wanted to do something good for them, but what;I was not knowing.
& during Puja vacations I made my mind to do workshop kind of thing for these friends. Things I learned during our youth camp of college which we call "prayas", which is an idea of "Initiatives of change" will be good means to interact with them, I thought.In youth camp we try to give message through games & skit,which is very interesting way of learning, so we will be able to communicate with these people and they will atleast feel pleasure that others care for them. I wanted to tell them "आप िकसी से कम नही हो".
Initially I got a cool response and then I was surprised how my good friends came out with new ideas, suggestions & other helps.
Finally on 28th of october 2k6 , we decided to have a workshop in "shri harsha memorial school for deaf & dumb" at shap 11 o' clock.Spandan, Saumya ,Sadananda & charming cute guy Alok accomapanied me .
Initially It was looking tough to convert our wordings to their way, but their teachers really played a vital role in that,I will be very thankfull to them for this.The principal madam(Ms. Sanjukta Samantaray) was also very co- operative .
We thought that only class 10 people will be there, but madam advised us have whole school so total 111 students were there.


We played some really nice games like bridge & 'hold it' games.Presented banana skit & explained them a bit of PHUL(purity, honesty, unselfishness & love)which is main concept of prayas.
It was a very^very nice experience.They were very good learners, and were reacting very positively.they learnt our games and convinced us that they will be teaching it to their junior fellows.
The principal mam told us to work for their recruitments in various companies also.
At last we distributed chocolets & pen to our good friends, and took leave.
Now I understand why we call them special children.
