Day1:
Camp was started with a group song and after that the youth were divided into 5 groups. They were given ideas to make pictures of different animals with different type of leaves. The students were so happy and they roamed in the Praggaloy campus to collect leaves. Then they were given trainings to make different creatures with the leaves without making any outline by pencil and pen. Those sessions become very innovative and most of the students made beautiful creatures. Later, their art works were displayed for the visitors. The session were conducted by – Sri Tarun Ghosh and Sushila Halder, Sr staff of Swanirvar and were assisted by Rehana Sultana, a high school language teacher who gave her inputs to the youths as volunteers.
After the lunch there were two slide shows on – ‘Safe drinking Water’ and ‘Global Warming’ and later the youth were given time to find out the solutions to minimize the effects. Each group presented their ideas. After that there was interactive Q/A session.
