Our Story So far ...
We started off with a research done by the middle school students which culminated with a mind map of their findings. Hence, we got a broad view of what child labour means and how it can effect a child.
Next, we spoke to the underprivileged within the school community. We noted down, as they explained, the sufferings of their economic struggle and living conditions. This created an understanding of the reasons of child labour and helped us to gain an insight about the issue and how it may perpetuate in the immediate neighbourhood.
This talk was followed by a detailed research on 4 different countries which have maximum rates of child labour - Congo, Nigeria, Bangladesh, United Kingdom and India. As a result of the study, we prepared and presented a skit to the rest of the school community, a small skit that emphasized our analysis of how child labour is present in the four countries.
We did not stop within the school community and stretched our hands out to spread awareness beyond the four walls of our school, to the Ooty town.We went forth on a rally to the town, on 1st December 2016, with an aim of interacting and spreading awareness amidst the local community.
