Ves Kids Campus

We are located in the Trimurti building over in Jawahar Colony, which is a pretty quiet part of Aurangabad. Ves Kids Campus started because a few of us felt there weren't enough places around here that felt like home for kids. We have a few rooms that we’ve converted into classrooms. It took us a while to get the floors redone and the walls painted a color that didn't look too dull. Now it looks alright. We have a small yard where the kids can run around for a bit, though we have to watch them closely so they don't trip on the roots of the old tree in the corner. Working with children in Maharashtra means you have to deal with the heat, so we have fans going all the time. Most of our staff lives within walking distance, so we don't have to worry about anyone being late because of traffic. We don't use a lot of fancy words or complicated teaching methods. We just show the kids how to share their toys and learn their colors. Sometimes we have meetings with the parents on Saturdays to talk about how things are going. It’s usually just a casual chat over some tea. We aren't trying to change the world, just trying to make sure the kids in Jawahar Colony have a safe place to be during the day. It’s enough for us.
