Adharshila aquires its own school bus.
Adharshila was in desperate need to improve its capacity to transfer students from the areas around the school. Anand Vahan, has been extremly useful for the last two years but fortunatly, the number of students has increased to a point where they cannot be accommodated in the SUV - resulting in multiple trips by the SUV thus incurring high costs.
For the last 3 months we have been struggling to find a solution, and thanks to a timly intervention by one of the trustees, we have managed to procure a mini bus which should take care of our needs for the at least the next 15 to 24 months.
The school session commences again.
After a well deserved summer vacation, the school is set to reopen on 2nd of July, Monday. The number of students who will start the session in the 5 classes are 171 with a expectation of another 10-12 late admissions.
The faculty staff has been in attendance for the last week, preparing the session papers and discussing the teaching methods.
The big problem forecasted is the transport arrangement needed to ferry the additional students from the villages in the vicinity. The single vehicle "the Anand Vahan" is going to be in-effective to carry all the students.
All suggestions to address this problem are welcome.
