GANGTOK, 08 Oct: In an effort to assist students from various schools across Sikkim to become smarter and confident through the process of cultural exchange programs, a ten-day students’ exchange program ‘Connecting Champions’ is being conducted by 24hours Inspired during the month of December 2013.
A press release informs that students in the age group between 12-16 years are encouraged to be part of the program.
Speaking about the program, Dewaker Basnet [Chief Learning Officer 24hours Inspired] says, “One of the vital aspects for the overall growth of a child is providing him/her the right exposure so that he/she becomes well equipped for life. One of the important elements of exposure is the process of physically connecting students of a particular geography with the students of another geographical space so that they learn from each other. These physical engagements also go a long way in inspiring these young ones to connect with each other and look at their lives from a broader perspective. ‘Connecting Champions’ endeavors to provide a platform for students to learn and grow through the process of cultural and intellectual exchanges between the youngsters of both the regions. This is our second year of the exchange program. In the first year of the program, we had taken a group of 15 students to Kerala for a 10-day intervention and the positive transformation of the students has been appreciated by the school and the parents”.
Connecting Champions hopes to be a great leveler in terms of culturally and intellectually exposing children of the state to mainstream India and improve with the passage of time, the release adds.
Interested schools/parents can contact the program co-ordinators at 800-134-0022, 787-288-0086, 03592-280333
