On April 13th, 2010, Ms Jane Wicks came in as a guest speaker to share with our PYP students the amazing work being done at the Kalahalli orphanage under her leadership. Jane spoke about how the volunteer PAC-CAS members went about planning and implementing their regular teaching program for the students at the Kalahalli, how much time they devote and why they did this. Jane also outlined how effective she thought the program had been and the challenges they had faced. These volunteer parents have been teaching English, Math and social skills to these children the whole year, as well as assisting Indus in conducting sports day and Children's Day and other food/shoe drives. They have formed a bond with these students and Jane had many touching stories of breaking through with these children and winning their trust.
We commend these caring and committed role models for giving their time and for all their efforts in making a difference in the lives of the students of Kalahalli.
