Last week Sandnya Srushti had 40 students of 9th standard from Center Point School. Four staff members also accompanied them. They reached Little late then the time scheduled. In fact we prefer our visitors to attend our morning prayer. It helps the visitor to understand the gravity and complexity of mental disability. We encourage students from normal schools to visit our campus. Seeing is believing, further it helps realizing the limitations of mentally challenged. Which in turn supports integration as well. These young visitors were taken on a conducted tour of Sandnya Srushti by dividing the lot in three groups. We took them through special schooling class rooms, vocational section and then through rehab units. Our trained guides explain about methods of special education and techniques. While going through vocational section guide explains to visitors about concept developing techniques adopted. Through rehab units, they try to emphasis that mental disability does not mean work disability. In therapy section, visitor understands the importance of different exercises under taken to keep our students fit.
