Primary Schools:

                he present education system aims at a white coloured job and it is leading towards poverty and
                unemployment. It is a system that does not provide scope of development of creativity and free
           Tthinking power in children. It takes away a farmer’s son or daughter away from cultivation, production
           and self-reliance. Children from the very beginning feel study a  burden, full of tension and heavy books
           give rise to nervousness. Thus an entirely new approach is required. The delivery system needed to be
           altered drastically. Changes in strategy, i.e. devising altogether new delivery mechanism, is the need of
           the hour. A model is required that may make the children feel study easy and burden free, tempt them to
           learn and put them  into a search mode, search for the new things.
           In this regard this Ashrama have been assisting 3 primary schools run by NGOs formed by our ex-trainees
           at Angara, Murhu, and  Burmu Blocks.
           A unique technique of teaching has been developed which includes games, models, demonstration,
           discussions,  charts,  maps  as  learning  implements  vis-a-vis  books.  Creativity  development  is  brought
           through sketches, paintings, model making and use of geometry box.
           Under unique teaching technique
           students were guided to play special
           types of games aimed at enhancing
           the power of concentration, memory,
           alertness  and  smartness  leading
           to  the  personality  development.
           For integrated development of
           the children special classes were
           conducted for Yoga, meditation, PT
           and marching practices.
           Children were taken on excursion
           to get them exposed to the nature.
           They were made familiar with trees,
           seeds  and  crops.  They  were  made
           to recognize every component
           of the nature and were explained
           how we are related to the nature.                   Students of Soba Primary School
           Children were made aware of Health                           Burmu, Ranchi
           & Hygiene. Periodical medical check-
           up was arranged.

           Besides the regular primary schools,
           most of our village level organisations
           (Vivekananda Seva Sanghas) are
           running evening coaching classes
           in their respective villages. They
           collect a very nominal fees from
           the students for the maintenance
           of these coaching centres. Besides
           the  regular course,  value  education
           classes are also conducted in these
           coaching centres to inculcate the
           feelings that man is potentially divine
           and religion is the manifestation of
           the divinity in man. Emphasis is given
           on cultivation of goodness - ‘Be good
           and help others to be good’.                          Students of Matkamdih School
                                                                        Angara, Ranchi
