No Bag Day
In a refreshing move to promote experiential learning and reduce academic stress, Bhavan’s Vidya Mandir, Girinagar organized a joyful "No Bag Day" for its Standard II students.
The initiative encouraged young learners to attend school without their usual textbooks and notebooks, shifting the focus from routine academics to interactive, hands-on experiences. Classrooms were transformed into lively learning spaces filled with creativity, exploration, and fun.
Students engaged in a variety of thoughtfully designed activities such as storytelling, art and craft, nature walks, simple science experiments, and group games. Teachers facilitated sessions that encouraged curiosity, teamwork, and real-world understanding, all while ensuring a relaxed and joyful atmosphere.
The event aimed to instill a love for learning beyond textbooks and to remind children that school is not just about exams—but also about discovery, imagination, and joy.
The school principal appreciated the enthusiastic participation of students and staff and emphasized the importance of balancing academics with creative development.
“No Bag Day was not just a break from books—it was a step toward joyful learning,” said one of the teachers, reflecting on the success of the day.
