Successful Literacy Campaign:
As secretary of the Interact Club of our school, it is my privilege to report about the literacy campaign arranged by our school during last month. Our respected Principal announced about the literacy campaign in the morning assembly. The purpose of this campaign was to bring awakening among the slum children and to encourage them to join schools and acquire the benefits of education. Accordingly, we made arrangements and went to the nearby slum area, which was considered to be the most backward.
The members of the club were divided into separate groups. One such group was assigned the duty to make the banners and posters for the purpose. We interacted with the children of the slum area and tried to be acquainted with their problems.
It was revealed that most of the children worked in different shops to earn some money for their families and hence the habit of going to school was never encouraged by their parents also. The children seemed quite eager to be regular school goes if they were given the chance.
We found that they were too poor to buy the necessary’ books, notebooks and stationery. So we distributed the needed books and notebooks and encouraged them to go to school and explained to them the benefits of education.
Next, the members of another group took the responsibility of teaching the students. The children were divided into separate groups and different members were assigned the duty to teach them. They were also provided inter food packets. We received a very amiable and welcoming response from the slum children. They assured us that they would continue to study hard. They would work hard and become educated citizens of the country. Their parents too felt obliged and thanked us. In short, it was a very successful campaign.
LITERACY CAMPAIGN
It is my honor, as Secretary of our school's Interact Club, to report on our school's literacy program, which took place last week, 7 July to 15 July to promote knowledge, integrity, and expertise among the underprivileged segments of society. In the morning meeting, our esteemed Principal announced the week-long literacy drive. This campaign aimed to raise awareness among slum children and encourage them to enroll in schools so that they could benefit from education.
Nearly 60 students from our school Delhi Public School in Delhi and 20 teachers organized a literacy drive in the surrounding slum area.
The club's members were grouped into several classes. One such party was tasked with creating banners and posters for the occasion. We worked with the children in the slum and attempted to understand their issues. The entire preparation process was overseen by the school's principal, MR. Anupam Mishra.
The primary goal behind this movement was to make sincere attempts for the underprivileged parts and divisions of the community to provide them with equitable opportunities. The responsibility for educating the students was taken over by members of another group. The children were grouped into classes, and various participants were given the responsibility of teaching them. They were often given food packs in between meals. Daily preparation and counseling sessions were also conducted to monitor people's performances and gain input to improve counseling instructional practices.
The children in the slums were very friendly and accepting. Their guardians, too, felt obligated and expressed gratitude to us. In a nutshell, the campaign was a huge success.
