The Social Sciences curriculum is based on the belief that culture and therefore history is a response to an adaptive dance life in all its forms dances with the physical geography of the planet. The sequence of information and the inquiry process that comprises the curriculum results in a compassion for diversity and ecological balance. The Kids in Nature Fund is being used to meet the promise to children that they will experience first hand the major biomes or habitats along with a workshop that binds the learning done in class with actual experience and a great deal of fun.
In preparation, the Community Outreach and teaching teams worked with parents to defend the curriculum and the students’ enthusiasm to take the trip. After overcoming many hurdles related to parental consent, community consensus and even clothing and self-confidence, 28 girls travelled with two teachers to Tolma in the lower Himalayas. The exposure has also included a meeting with the organisers and the parents, and a training session with the teachers. After their return, the participants lived up to their commitment to train those who did not go. Teachers and students created an exhibition, which, the person who funds Kids in Nature, Deborah, was in town to see.
