Souhardyo (Extending the spirit of friendship) Objectives:“Helping hands are better than praying lips” Mother Teresa Exposing the younger minds towards a broader spectrum. Encouraging them to think bold and broad. Inculcate caring attitude among the students.
Children matter- both as individuals as well as future citizens of the country. The most important thing that matters most about them is their subjective well-being- both mental and physical. Shrinking exposure to nature, excessive academic pressure and increased screen time contribute towards decline in a child’s mental well-being. Hence nurturing students for their overall development should be a fundamental part of the teaching process. Not only the children but differently abled children and elderly people also need an extra bit of care so as to be nurtured in a proper manner. The college thus tried to inculcate this caring attitude amongst students by encouraging them to help these sections of the society as much as possible. Giving moral support showing heartfelt humility and respect makes them aware that someone really does care about them, “Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love” Mother Teresa
The College takes initiative to cater to these young minds by arranging varied activities for them in order to make learning fun for them. The documentary films on various social issues and subjects contribute to their overall development with respect to cognitive, emotional and social well-being. The schools adjacent to the College represents students who come from economically backward and minority community. The college facilitates them with an opportunity to come and gather knowledge through audio-visual aids. Since the year 2020 to 2022 was the time of unprecedented changes and challenges in the field of learning due to the global pandemic, hence arises the need for creating an environment which supports and strengthens the mental health and well-being of these young minds.
