During the week long celebrations, each day was dedicated to addressing different aspects of the challenges faced by the different pillars of Community Service at Mayo College Girls’ School and along    the way we hoped to bring together the entire community as one.

Day 4- 4th  , August, 2019

MCGS organized a tree plantation drive in Pushkar where our students and their community service partners planted almost 100 saplings. Tree plantation drive was followed by lunch which allowed us to spend quality time with our special friends in an informal atmosphere. It gave them a sense of purpose by allowing them to be in the role of enablers and care providers.

Day 5- 5th  , August, 2019

On the 5th of July, 2019, our girls had the privilege to attend a workshop conducted by Ms. Jesselina Rana, alumni MCGS Batch of 2013. Jasselina Rana who completed her graduation from NLU, Delhi became the founder of  a social enterprise called ‘Pad2Go‘, a sanitary pad vending machine distributor in Nepal along with her co-founder.She talked about the importance of creating awareness of mensuration and its hygiene. We had an interactive session about the menstrual issues, myths and taboos.She also enlightened us with the necessity of the involvement of men for spreading awareness about such an import issue in today’s era.

Ma’am was successful in seeding within us a sense of responsibility towards our community and the art of giving.

Day 6- 6th  , August, 2019

MCGS Students from different Service groups visited different Social Service organisations which they do not visit regularly. This was done with the aim of sensitizing them to the plight of people with many other difficulties. We also hope that they were inspired and motivated by the individuals and organisations who are care givers to the underprivileged.

Prayas– 16 of class IX girls got opportunity of visiting ‘SHUBHDA’ , a centre for children with special needs.‘Shubhda’ is a school for intellectually disabled children providing them with special education and vocational training. Specifically dealing with children suffering through Cerebral Palsy, Autism and Multiple Disabilities. They have students from the chronicle age group of 4-41 but with a minimum mental age. The school teaches students to do their daily chores , sit, eat, speak etc provide them therapies including physiotherapy, speech therapy and behavioural therapy to enable them to be a part of society. 

Jagriti- visited Dayanand Bal Sadan for an interactive session with the girls there. The girls from our school distributed food packets to them. They sang songs for each other and even danced with them. The students enquired about their daily routine and shared their routine with them. It was a fun-filled interaction with a lot of learning for our students.​

Khushi– A batch consisting of 20 students went to visit the MISSION GIRLS SCHOOL on 4th of august. We had a great time interacting with these girls.  It was an eye opening experience for us to know about their lives. We performed several activities like tree plantation, magic box , talk on sex education, a drill performance, painting the classroom walls.

Sparsh- ‘Sparsh’ community service took its students to the Government Senior Secondary School for the Blind as a part of the Happy Week ‘Sankalp’ 2019.

Our students had the opportunity to learn about the life of the students there. They learnt about Braille and various such things that facilitate the life of blind students. On their visit, they also were fortunate to witness the talented students of the school playing instruments and singing various songs.

The experience was beautiful and humbling as our students learnt about gratitude and privilege. They learnt that life is not what you are given; rather it is what you make of it.

The students returned feeling overwhelmed and grateful, having learnt the value of hard work and perseverance. The support and enthusiasm of all the students and teachers was appreciated and we look forward to many such inspiring visits.

Day 7- 7th , August, 2019

On the last day, we invited our community service partners for an evening of dance and music where they could showcase  their talents which made us realize that physical, emotional or mental disabilities are no barriers to a happy and contended life.
