“Do not keep children to their studies by compulsion but by play”, said Plato and his words still ring true.

In cognizance with the above thought, Vardhman Academy, Radha Garden, Meerut organized an excursion to Kidzania on 01st October 2024 which is a unique and interactive indoor theme park. It gives a real- life experience to kids through role-play activities. Students from classes 3 to 8 enjoyed the tour to this theme park. By blending reality with entertainment, it provides an authentic and powerful development platform where the students explore and learn about the real- world occupations. Students enjoyed understanding about real-world occupations in private services, public services, entertainment industry, airline industry and other sphere of life. Students played the role of pilot, doctor, chef, firefighter, and many other professions with full gusto.

The students returned to school with wonderful memories to share with their parents. The excursion strengthened in them the value for dignity to labour. In addition, this trip enabled them to appreciate the contribution of each member of the society and made them reflect upon the challenges faced by each working individual in the real- world.
