Students of Forms 4 and 5 visited
the Bayer Material Science facility At the solar panels on March 4th. They were given an insight
into how the facility is energy efficient; produces its own energy; how the energy produced, consumed and saved
Details of energy produced and consumed
is recorded; how it harvests water; and
what are the products it manufactures. It was quite a success as children
enjoyed the interaction and learning. Some of them actually said that it was
their best field trip ever. I must say it was very well organised and conducted
by the organization. Our students asked a whole lot of questions – many related
to their Unit of Inquiry - and were satisfied by the answers they got. In fact,
the organisers also said that our students were very inquisitive and asked very
sensible and meaningful questions. They also got to see and get familiar with
some new materials (polyurethane and polycarbonate) and solar panels. The
highlight of the day was the drawbridge construction kit that each child got.
They began constructing them at the facility itself and were thrilled when they
were told that they could take it home.Aradhana Sikri
