Dream Explore Discover

"Dream is the hope of tomorrow.."

We have hundreds and thousands of dreams but do we pursue all of them? why do we leave some of them? why do we struggle for some of them? why do we want to achieve some, even though we are very much aware of the rough road ahead?....

A group of individuals had a passion of providing education to the poor and underprivileged children.. they knew it was not an easy task.. unfazed they set up a unique trust.. "Ananya" which has completed 11 years.. yet still fresh.. still dedicated!

 

We reached there at around 2 in the afternoon.. After roaming around the campus i found myself engrossed in the environment created for kids. There is nothing formal.. no formal syllabus.. no sky high buildings.. its as simple as learning in nature! I was awestruck the moment i saw the classrooms there.. teachers were in no hurry to complete one class and flee to another.. kids need not worry about various subjects.. no exam fever.. no mid-term tension..(cool huh?) still there was a kind of learning process! everyone were so relaxed.. relishing every moment !

Kids are allowed to explore things around them which improves their ability to analyze.. inquire.. learn... and thats the main objective of ASK (Ananya Sikshana Kendra). Their thirst to learn more has prompted the trust to have science and computer labs for them to research. No competition, No discrimination, clear conscience among kids shows the best efforts of the volunteers.

They are free to choose their own career and develop skills accordingly.. They have the number they like or the day they prefer, for their birth day. A comfy environment is all they need and its provided in Ananya.

We couldnt find much time to interact with the kids as we had our offices to flee to! but those few hours spent there was worth it and looking forward to meet them soon!
