Training sessions planned to ensure their physical and mental health
The Kozhikode office of the Samagra Shiksha Kerala (SSK) has opened 280 special care centres for differently abled students to come out of the monotony of online learning at home.
According to A.K. Abdul Hakeem, district project coordinator, SSK, training sessions have been conceived to ensure the physical and mental health of the students. The sessions are held in association with various local bodies.
Pointing out that learning together and mingling were essential for differently abled children, Mr. Hakeem said many of them could not cope with online learning because of their special nature. Direct training is important for them. They are also facing mental stress these days, affecting their health. This has had an impact on their parents as well. The idea of special care centres was conceived to offer a support system for them.

Over the decades, the Anglo-Indian Grand Christmas Ball in Chennai has stepped into many venues, from Railway enclaves to private halls. It has left an indelible mark on some of these venues, Faiz Mahal and Shiraz Hall, both in Egmore, counted among them. This Christmas Day (December 25), Faiz Mahal is playing host to yet another Grand Christmas Ball. The soiree is organised by Anglo-Indians but by no means restricted to them. In these times of dwindling Anglo-Indian presence even in enclaves with a distinctive Anglo-Indian flavour, this event signifies an effort to preserve a cultural tradition that has enriched Chennai
