Educational tour : realtime exposure learning

Memories of school trips are among the most prominent of the formative years, largely because they are a welcome break in the routine for both students and teachers. While the purpose of these trips is essentially to educate, they can also be a fun bonding experience for everyone involved. Sri Aurobindo School of Integral Education planned a school trip classes IV to X  Science City - Kapurthala. While sending the students to Science City Principal, Mrs. Garima S Bhardwaj said that the main motive of this educational tour is to get them more knowledge about science & entertainment. Along with studies these trips are also important which turn to be gainful for the students. Almost every branch of science was exhibited in the Pushpa Gujral Science City, right from physical, applied, natural and social sciences, engineering, technology, agriculture, health sciences, energy, industries, human evolution and civilization, the environment, ecosystems and Jurassic park. The students visited the fun science gallery, space and aviation gallery, amazing living machines gallery, sports gallery, energy park, virtual reality gallery, cyber space gallery and got the related presentations. They were amazed to see the real life experiences of science. They also enjoyed watching the visually stunning 3-D shows, laser show and a special show, "Back to the Moon", in the dome- shaped theatre. The children then went to the 'climate change zone' where they learnt about the climatic changes and the required precautionary measures to be taken.  The students were then served with scrumptious food. It was an informative and enjoyable visit to Science City.
