Today, I introduced the topic Nature to the children through a leaf-pasting activity. The children collected and pasted different leaves to create beautiful artwork. This hands-on activity helped develop their fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, creativity, and concentration. The children actively participated and enjoyed learning about nature through play and exploration. 🌿🍂

Today marked a memorable and joyous occasion for the newly shifted ECCD Centre at Shinbuwoong under Deothang Gewog with the successful grand consecration and opening ceremony held in the esteemed presence of the Deputy CDEO, CTEO of Samdrup Jongkhar Thromde, Principal of Rikhay Primary School, officials from the Gewog Administration, and other distinguished guests.

The program was successfully conducted through the collective efforts, dedication, and unwavering support of the people of Shinbuwoong. The event became a success due to the guidance and encouragement of the Sherig leaders of Samdrup Jongkhar and the spiritual blessings received from CGI/Deothang Shedra.
