Socialisation plays a major role in a child’s life, especially when they are first placed in care of other care takers. To be properly socialised, children must spend large amount of time with their peers, and these skills cannot be appropriately taught by just being in the classroom. With this aim we took our little angels – the Grade Ones on an excursion to the Children’s park on 5^th March 2013. During this Excursion students were given the opportunity to develop their social skills in a more relaxed environment.

The geography students of Grade 10 went on a field trip to Thilafushi, to observe and learn more about the industrial procedure in the Gas Plants. Geography students researched on the industrial aspects, the inputs, processes and outputs of the plants. The chief engineer showed students their machines, what they produce and gave them various information about the industry. The students learnt a lot about the industries and got to see it all in action which would make it easy for students to do case studies in the O’ Levels.

The trip was successful. We thank the Gas Plant management for receiving us warmly and exchanging valuable information with our students.
