To make anganwadi centres more appealing for rural children, a district in Uttar Pradesh is modifying and beautifying buildings in innovative ways to use them as “instruments of learning”. The administration in Jhansi has so far rejuvenated 100 centres as part of the programme BaLA — Building as Learning Aid. It involves using the 3-dimensional space of the anganwadi structures to promote innovative learning and altering or beautifying the exterior, interior or outdoor spaces, said officials. The administration has converted different parts of the centres — be it classrooms, corridors, backyards or even windows and ceilings — into “instruments of learning”, said Chief Development Officer, Jhansi, Sailesh Kumar.More Related News
