We have always aimed at providing an invigorating ambience of cultural ethos, so that at a tender age, the innocent minds are cradled to become good human beings. Keeping this in view, we organized a field trip to the religious places, i.e. a temple, church, mosque and gurudwara. The main objective of the visit was to accustom our tiny tots to start with prayers at an early age, seek blessings of the Almighty and acquaint them with the significance of these sacred places. They were made familiar with the customs and rituals which are followed there.
