A new academic year has begun! The year started with enrolment drives across villages, to get children to re-join Eureka classes this year. In several villages, our teams went door-to-door, meeting parents, and explaining about Eureka classes and their structure. The meetings that we had organized in May, sharing childrens annual learning progress with parents, turned out to be helpful in convincing many to enroll their children in the centers, again this year. Field persons and tutors have been trained, materials have been supplied and classes have begun since July.
Community pitches in
The members of Nehru Youth club in Rajakollihalli have donated good story books, including books on Spoken English, for the Eureka centers in their village. When the Eureka center had to be built in Kunnathur, the Panchayat President not only helped with free community land, but also used the existing 100 days employment guarantee scheme (NREGA) to construct the center! Usually the scheme is used to provide jobs in rural areas for laying roads, cleaning water tanks etc. Mr. Jayachandra Mohan grew up in Machanur village. Struggling against all odds, he set up a machine tools factory and is now a successful entrepreneur. A strong supporter of Eureka classes in Machanur village, he had donated more than Rs. 35,000 towards childrens learning!
