What do we at DnE and Bhumi do best? We are all about creating a difference. Be it in the lives of kids at a whole, empowering them with skill sets to face life and its hardships or to the smallest sweetest differences on their faces by a special something that is worth more than a million bucks – A SMIIIILEEE J.

What’s better than combining fun that brings up long glee filled faces and an activity with a lesson to boost their teambuilding and strategizing skills? An activity by fellow Dronas -  Sangeetha and Jacob did not let us down on that front :D. you have one go,guess what all of us loved when we were kids despite the chocolates, messing the place around and pulling your siblings hair :P ANSWER - BALLOOOOOONS!  Everyone loves balloons now, don’t we? A wise man once said 'usage of something we love in our learning always enhances the process of learning' (That wise man was certainly not me : D ) And looks like Jacob and Sangeetha did take the wise man's advice ;) We had pillars and beds of balloons made by teams of kids competing against each other to build the strongest, tallest and the most stable balloon tower.  Materials used were restricted to a spool of thread, a roll of tape and of course balloons.

 One simply has to be amazed on the technique and strategic team work pooled in by our little fellas. At the end of it all, it was a 5 foot balloon tower that stood taller than the rest. The winning team shared their experience with the rest and the applauds where converted in blasts, blasts of balloons popping :P

Nooooow.. it was that time of the day where we Dronas sit together for our LEARNING CYCLE! Our new LC co-od- Ganapathy along with Prakash had planned a team-wise presentation on whats our take on communication. Although it was just a start a few rattling points where made. The discussion carries on to the next week with a team preparing an LC with the topic revolving around communication. 

NOW THAT THE LC IS BACK THIS SEASON, WE CAN ALL BE REST ASSURED OF PRESENTATIONS AND HEATED UP DISCUSSIONS ULTIMATELY AIMING FOR ONE GOAL AND ONE GOAL ONLY - ENRICHING THE DRONA BRAINS :D
