Construction Update

THE MAKING OF SAI KRUSHNA MANDIR- CONSTRUCTION UPDATE

Sai Krushna Mandir after Phase 1 and 2

With the Divine Blessings and grace of our Beloved Swami, the ground floor of Phase 1 of the children’s home – Sai Krushna Mandir – will be inaugurated on 23^rd November, 2012. While there are numerous challenges, the SKM construction team is working to ensure that the foundation, construction and funding are all moving along expected timelines.

As you are all aware, owing to our stance of non-corruption with government authorities, the construction work began only on Gurupoornima-3^rd July. We are grateful to Swami that He has allowed us to complete the ground floor of the building in time to celebrate the inauguration of the ground floor on His birthday It is entirely a reflection of His grace on the project that in a short duration of about 4 months the ground floor of Phase 1 would be complete and the civil structure of the first and second floors would be done by November. The entire building would be finished by February/ March. It is expected that Sai Krushna Mandir will be functional as a children’s home from April/May 2013. That way, the children who will be coming will also be able to join during the change of academic session. We also invite applications for suitable volunteer families who will be willing to to live with and take care of the children.

Children's Corner- School Update

Our children in the Sharavathi Kannada Higher Primary School are returning to school from the first of June. The teachers have evaluated the papers and the results have been announced. The performance of the children has been much better this semester. The school has secured a 91% result at the Class 10 level. In the month of May, the classrooms of the primary school were given a new look with whitewashing of walls, painting of blackboards and making the classroom more fun and informative with posters/ exhibits etc. The children will also be given text books, note books, pencil boxes, geometry boxes, tables books and other items of stationery completely free of charge. The School Management Team has devised a more comprehensive time table to incorporate periods for Bal Vikas, Physical Education, Craft work, Music and Teaching through Videos. This will help develop a more holistic attitude of the children which will enable learning and all round growth.
