Satsang Vidyalaya Renewal for 2011-2012
School • School location • Located at Madanpalle • 2.5 hrs drive from Bangalore • School • Small campus with 3 buildings • Quiet surroundings • Clean and well maintained campus with a small garden • Children come from 3-4 villages nearby, some walk from about 3kms away • Classes pre-KG to 8th with informal after-school classes for 9th, 10th students
Children • Number doubled to 150 in last 2 yrs • Over 50% in lower classes – pre-KG and 1st • Kids were very active and not too shy • Children are very motivated to attend because of mid-day meals, breakfast and snacks • Children are excited about the school due to music and dance activities that are involved • Kids willingly help with school chores and other activities like paper-binding books • UKG kids could write her name in English • Kids come in every Saturday and help with paper-binding books and other school housekeeping activities, play games after finishing work
Latest Happenings • Mr. C. Ravindran is now in charge of the entire administration • Mr. Srinivas (Math Teacher) has now taken charge as Principal • Mrs. Radhika Ravindran is looking after the Kitchen and Housekeeping requirements • Currently 9 teachers and 150 children • Classes from Nursery to 8th standard • 6 Students who have been attending the after school sessions have scored above 80% in Tenth standard Board exams
Other Initiatives • Volunteers come from Bangalore to train teachers in English • They organized a drive to collect sweaters for the children • After school activity- Coaching the 9 & 10 Std children of Govt schools and some of our senior children who have passed out teaching the lower grade children. • Medical Camp organized and FU action taken. • Sponsored two teachers for a 5 week Training Program - conducted by the MDA, Chennai
Funding History • We funded Rs. 4,23,000 ($9000) for 2009-2010 • This was to cover the cost for part of their operational expenses • Some of their expenses are covered by: • Volunteers who sponsor a child @ Rs. 7500 per year • Charitable donations from people • Borrowing loans
Sponsor • Out of 150 children, they have sponsors for 72 kids • The following is a breakdown by class of the number of children who do not have sponsors
Renewal Proposal • Propose to sponsor children starting from UKG to 7th Grade. • The total amount would then be: • 56 children @Rs.7500 per child = Rs. 4,20000 • This would also account for the 20% cut in budget.
