Nativity certificate is a government document

that is issued by the State Governments of India

to certify that the individual has been residing

in a particular location for five or more years.

This certificate is issued in every state in

India and is used to get admission in schools and

for employment purposes. The certificate is issued

by a Special Tahsildar. To create an awareness about

Native Certificate among our students, 8th grade

Tamil teacher Kothai at the Isha Vidhya Dharmapuri

school planned an activity about applying for the

native certificate.

The school’s Principal acted as the Tahsildar.

Students filed their applications for getting native

certificates. Through this activity, students came

to know the procedure of filing the Native Certificate

form. They also learnt where to submit it. Since most

of the children were not aware of it, the activity

helped the children a lot in understanding the process.

It developed their skills of filling in the form and

talking to the officials to submit the application.

Activities like these enrich the students’ learning of

social skills and community processes. Isha Vidhya takes

care that students learn not just the academics but also

the required life skills to live well in the community.
