Nurturing Talents
By Fr. Saji Elambasseril SDB | Director

Trivandrum Don Bosco Veedu has been providing remedial education to underprivileged children in slums. Lack of proper education in schools and learning lags make it difficult for children to study well. Caretakers at home too will not be able to help the children with their studies. Remedial education aims to bridge learning gaps and help children reach their full potential.
Children attend regularly in the classes provided daily and participate in weekly evaluation tests to track their progress. They also have recreational activities and game sessions during the weekends, which keeps them motivated to attend classes regularly.
Sixty percent of the children attending the classes lack a basic foundation in the subjects they are studying in school. This initially made it difficult to help them understand the topics they had to study at school. Later on, when time was carefully managed, the team was able to spare some time each day to teach basic literacy to the children. This helped them overcome their hatred and anxiety towards studies.

Children performing a stunning dance performance
A grand Christmas celebration was organized for the children. Children engaged in various party games and performed various cultural programmes. The children were excited to showcase their talents during the event. The most anticipated part was "Secret Santa," where the children exchanged gifts that were mostly handmade. Every child put their maximum effort into making their gift special. A Christmas cake was also cut and distributed among the children, and this elevated their celebration mood. The break from studies and a chance to create memories drew the children's hearts close to the center.
The children from the urban slum have been benefiting from the remedial education programme provided to them so far. Their grades have improved, and they have also developed discipline and a sense of responsibility. Children always like to play and enjoy. Children were eager to know when the Christmas celebration will be held as they've never got a chance to celebrate it with their friends as they were also left discriminated from the rest. The Christmas celebration at the Edu Center gave the children a marvellous opportunity to create memories and celebrate the time of the year with their friends and loving teachers.
