Visit to Dispensary and Tree Adoptation @ Pehal

CHANGING WEATHER MADE OUR PEHAL CHILDREN SICK

Today, we visited our classroom and found out a lot many children were suffering from the effects of seasonal change. Fever, cold and cough was prevalent in 12 kids, two of them were having a liquid discharge from their ears and one of them was suffering from Conjunctivitis. We took them to the nearby dispensary and got them registered.

The doctor did a thorough check-up and provided them with medicines which we explained to their parents once we returned to the site. The kids have been sleeping without blankets due to randomly changing weather conditions. However, this is the time where maximum precaution needs to be taken as it can lead to fever and other such issues.

Whilst the parents were glad their kids were given medicines, the kids were more than happy to receive the complementary banana from the clinic.

Tree Adoption @ Pehal
From the moment I entered Pehal today, there was a buzz of excitement in the air. All children were out in the field after attending their regular classes. We went to the site together and our Pehal teacher told us "how to plant trees" which was simultaneously being demonstrated by labourers. Following that, Children helped them fill the ditch with soft mud and water the trees. Each one of them adopted a tree and promised to look
after it and water it everyday.
The children were also quizzed about the importance of trees and they came up with pretty good answers!
The children will be allowed to be a part of the tree plantation drive next week.
It was a fun day and a great learning experience for the children!!
