Bachpan A Play School

Located out on Patkui Bararu Road, our little school is a bit of a landmark for the families living around Bararu in Sagar. It is a play school, so as you can imagine, it is rarely quiet during the day. We have lots of bright colors on the walls, though some of the paint is starting to chip in the corners where the kids play the most. The building at P H No 68 is where we spend our mornings dealing with toddlers and young children who are just getting used to being away from home. There is a lot of singing and sometimes a bit of crying when someone drops their snack, but we manage to get through it. The staff here are mostly local women who know the parents well. We spend a lot of time organizing toys and making sure the floor is clean enough for crawling. It isn't a corporate office; it feels more like a busy house most of the time. The road outside can get a bit muddy when it rains, so we are always telling the kids to wipe their shoes at the door. We have a small outdoor area where they can get some fresh air when the weather is nice. It is simple work, really. We look after the little ones, teach them a few songs, and wait for the parents to come back at midday. It is a noisy, happy kind of mess every single day we are open.
