Activities draw to a close
The books are handed over
On Tuesday, November 21st, Spark volunteers handed over the books to the kids. The kids enjoyed the idea of having books and also eagerly listened to explanations from volunteers on how to use the books.
Final session
The CMI semester examinations ended on Friday, November 24th. On Monday, November 27th, three Spark members (Jayanth, Nivedita and Vipul) were in CMI. They informed the kids that it was unlikely that Spark would be interacting with the kids again. The kids, particularly Satish (who understood the full import of the message) were disappointed. The final session was spent explaining to the kids how to go through the books. Here's a picture of Bhawani gazing at the textbook and a picture of Satish learning mathematics.
One of the parents also went through the Learn English through Telugu book and requested for another set of colouring books for his daughter, whom he had not got here.
Emotional farewell
At the end of the final session, Satish requested for photographs of himself and the other kids to be taken on Jayanth's mobile phone. He also called up Jayanth from Vipul's mobile phone and talked to him on phone for a minute. He took Jayanth's mobil number for contacting Jayanth from his uncle's phone.
