Dear Parent,
We at St Mary
School, Dahod, are engaging with Youreka (A
brief note attached) to provide our children with a unique learning
experience.
The Youreka
program is conducted in the outdoors where children get an opportunity to be
with nature and engage in adventure activities. This outdoor learning program is the extension of our endeavour to provide for the wholesome development of a child's
personality and also bringing the child closer to the environment and nature.
We feel, that though we teach the
children about rain forest, wildlife etc., we are able to do little to
encourage children's personal relationship with the outside world, due to our
limited means. Children remain glued to the Internet, computer games and TV.
This alienation from the natural world does impact our child's long term
physical and mental well being. Studies show that interacting with the natural
world encourages children to sharpen all their senses.
YOUREKA is the pioneer of adventure
based learning programs for children in India. Over 50000 children from
all over India and overseas have experienced Youreka in the past 20 years.
The program
being organized for our school will be conducted at the Dharamshala, campus of Youreka. The details about the program are
given in the attached note.
I would like to reiterate that our children's safety is our primary concern and we will have our
teachers accompany the group.
We would like
you to encourage your child to participate in the program. Please send back the
duly filled registration form to the class teacher latest by 2nd Dec.
There are
limited seats on the program and enrolment will be offered on a first come
first served basis.

The little things in
Youreka since 1996, like experiencing the simple gestures of children, the
feelings and thoughts they share and translating the same into accomplishment, have been priorities for us. We adore children, all accolades to their instant grasping powers,
their infectious smile and their quest for knowledge has made us reach to over 50,000 children of varied age groups internationally. We are proud
to say that we continue to achieve unsurpassed levels of safety, care, fun
along with learning, which we call “Youreka Moments”.
