Venkateshwara Prathamik Vidyalaya

If you are driving along the Aurangabad Hyderabad Highway through Hingoli, you will pass by Venkateshwara Prathamik Vidyalaya. We are situated right in Aundha Nagnath, which is a busy area because of the traffic on the main road. The school is a simple place meant for primary-aged children from the local villages and nearby houses. It is not a very large building, just a few rooms where the kids sit and learn their lessons every day. Being on the highway means there is always the sound of trucks and cars passing by, but the children are used to it. We have a small gate and a bit of space where they can play during the breaks. The desks are small because the kids are small. We focus on the basic things they need to know at that age, like reading and writing. The teachers are locals who understand the families here. It is a very practical setup. We do not have any fancy facilities, just the bare essentials needed for a school to run. In the mornings, you see the parents dropping off their kids before they head to work in the fields or the local shops. It is a humble school that has been part of the community for some time. We just take it one day at a time, making sure the children show up and do their work. It is an honest place with no big decorations, just a school for the neighborhood children.
