This learning centre in Sambhav Colony is a centre with one classroom for a mixed class of juniors and seniors and is led by our teacher Aarnika. The centre is open for three hours, six days a week after 2:00 pm when the children come back from the government school. 
Aarnika is a lovely young indian teacher at Concern for Humanity CFH in Bapu colony in the Slums of New Delhi

At the centres, we focus on strengthening the academic foundation of children. We teach children Hindi, English and Mathematics according to their academic levels and help them to do better in their grades, thus preventing them from dropping out of school.

Reading is an integral part of everyday activities and is compulsory for every student.

CENTRE ACTIVITIES

Beside the tuition we run several activities in all our centres to foster the skills and the fantasy of our children. For example, with a ‘plant a plant’ project our children learn to become responsible citizens towards sustainable environment, where each student has to take care of a personal plant.
