Dear Supporters,

Recently I held a workshop with the District Institute of Education and Training (DIET), Bageshwar on the importance and use of sports for development. The workshop on sports was part of the lecture series on 'Arts and Work Experience in Schools' and was attended by a selected group of teachers from all over the district.The main aim of the workshop was to help the teachers understand the importance of Life Skills and the use of sports in Life Skill development of the children. This topic was linked to Continuous and Compressive Evaluation, an important process in the Right to Information Act of India, which talks about the importance of inculcating Life Skills in Children.To help the teachers facilitate this development of life skills in children, Aniketh Mendonca has written a book of 13 sports which are a blend of local as well as well-known games.
These games were put together keeping two main factors in mind, the space constraints of working in the schools of the hills and the lack of resources available to them. These 13 games can be played in confined spaces and also in classrooms and will require little to no resources.

A demonstration of the games was done with the teachers, who showed an overwhelming response to this concept and are eagerly looking forward to implementing this process in their schools.
The next stage of this project will be to print these books and distribute them to over 700+ Government Primary and Junior High schools in the district.
