Anubhav

Anubhav Concept

Anubhav is planned to introduce city children to nature, its elements and the inter-relationships. Understandably, this will require a great deal of care and patience. For, many students are likely to consider most of the harmless objects as "icky" or "nasty" or even fearfully dangerous. These children are often so full of distress and prejudices that they run in terror from almost any living thing.

Today, the students are much hampered by their lack of experience with Nature. They ask, "Will it bite me?" "Does it sting?" "Is it poisonous?" and a harmless black beetle is an object of grave suspicion even after they have been assured that it will no way hurt them. To hold a black beetle in one's palm or to caress a caterpillar for the first time are great experience for any child because this is how they conquer their unfounded fears and awaken an experience-based spirit of exploration and adventure.

Environment has become a compulsory subject right from primary level for all the schools irrespective of the curriculum they follow. However, teaching environment in classrooms has its own limitations. We believe that learning through one's own experience through outdoor-based activities certainly enhance the quality of environmental education. Anubhav is a package implemented from Class I to Class XII and under it every student is made to experience 12 different eco-systems by the time they complete their schooling
