Henny Penny No. 35

Henny Penny 35 opens its doors. St. Jude's India ChildCare Centres strive to help very needy children who comes to Mumbai (with accompanying parents) to undergo treatment for and recover from a serious illness, have a clean, safe, comfortable, caring, and cost-free place to stay. The family receives all the information and encouragement they need to develop a positive spirit to fight and overcome the disease, and the child has meaningful opportunities for distraction from the suffering and boredom.

Henny Penny Library 34

Henny Penny Library No 34. The project Sshrishti CRN is designed  for the community living in five villages of rural Kumaon. The 950 families living in these villages of the watershed belong mostly to the SC/ST communities.  The community suffers from low level of education lack of opportunities for income generation and scarcity of water. Although there are  primary schools and few secondary schools, the children have no knowledge of computers and other resources which are a part of modern education system. They consequently suffer from a lack of knowledge.This is the second of the three resource centres covering five villages to bring digital literacy and library within easy reach of the children in these villages.

This initiative emphasises on grooming children from grade I-V for their development as independent learners. The focus is on building early language, literacy and numeracy skills. The aim, as the children move to higher levels, is to equip them to perform at comparable levels when they reach class V. Children are encouraged to play with the alphabets, understand and coin words that they are familiar with. The teaching practices follow the continuum of developing the related listening, speaking, reading and writing skills.
