Vatsalya International School
Educational cum entertaining tours are the part of the curriculum specifically designed to stimulate curiosity and engage students. Vatsalya provides an excellent platform for the students in this regard. Students of grade 4th had the chance to visit Vatika resort situated at Devgadh Baria on 18th and 19th November 2019. Children enjoyed trekking, swimming, camp fire, mind games and many more different adventurous activities. They learnt about various medicinal plants and rocks. Besides all this they also learnt more about new situations in an informal environment and to live away from home in the midst of nature. Enriched and reinforced experiences always lay a strong foundation for intellectual stimulation.

Trekking, adventure, wildlife and we… We the students of class 5 visited Ratanmahal wildlife sanctuary on 26th, 27th and 28th November 2019. The trip was started with the blessings of God and it was full of fun, enjoyment with yummy, delicious food and luxurious stay in tents. The sanctuary is famous for sloth bears, flying squirrels, blue bulls, types of rocks, more than 150 species of birds, Sal tree, Medicinal plants and so on.

It didn’t take long for the marathoners to drop away from the pack as soon as the whistle blew at the starting point on 1st December 2019 at Borsad. With the message ‘To Race Against Aids’ a long line of students, parents and teachers together stretched away in swift jog. This Marathon is scheduled every year to encourage mass participation and to instill values of promoting good health amongst students, teachers and community through mentioned programme. Dipped in morning freshness, all these members of the Vatsalya family carried forward an important message to the society against the fatal disease of AIDS. Volunteers were posted at every nook of the designated pathway to check on the interiority of the runners. It was started exactly at 6:30 am. Participants were briefed all formalities required to be fulfilled like getting tickets and seal properly, not to follow short cut routes and to be mindful of their safety measures. Water and juice facility was also made available at different points of the leg whereas all other provisions were taken care in case of casualty. The run continued for an hour where the participants displayed robust energy. The school received a strong support from the local police who helped in smooth conduction of the programme. A heartfelt thanks to all the stakeholders who collaborated and co-operated with us.

Wherever you go, no matter what the weather is, you can always bring your own sunshine. This is what the students of class 2 and 3 experienced on a two days one night tour to the marvellous Jambugoda Wildlife Sanctuary. Students along with Mrs. Nishat Ahmed, Mrs. Marshila Parmar, Mrs. Rupa Verma, Mrs. Dipalee Bhoge, Mrs. Mansi Buke, Ms. Vandana Tiwari and Mr. Prasad left on the 18th of November from Borsad. On the way kids enjoyed delicious breakfast and enjoyed the journey singing and dancing on tunes of their favourite music. We reached the destination by afternoon. Post lunch we took some rest and headed towards Kada dam reservoir which was an hour’s walk from our dormitories. Kids enjoyed the walk through the forest and learnt about various trees and their uses. Later at night the organisers had arranged for camp fire where kids entertained themselves by dancing and singing. “The best view comes after the hardest climb.” Next morning kids were excited about bird watching and some new adventures. We went for trek where kids saw types of birds, spiders, ants, lizards, mushrooms and some medicinal plants. Kids learnt a song on nature and played some team games. We visited a small museum and enjoyed sky walk. We left from the Jambugoda Wildlife Sanctuary by afternoon. It was a mesmerising experience for all of us. “To walk with nature is to witness thousand miracles.”
