Day Two: Reading Workshop

December 2, 2014 by Varsha Seshan 2 Comments

At VP’s Bal Vikas Mandir, workshops are not just enjoyable work. On Monday, after my first two sessions, I was not well.
“Could I have just soup for dinner?” I asked.
“Of course,” was the reply.
Ten minutes later, there was a knock on the door – Vicks and Crocin to ensure that I slept well.
That’s what working in a place with thoughtful people is like! On my first day there, I met three teachers: one who had worked for 19 years, one for 22 and one for 35. I was astounded and commented on this to the principal, who calmly replied that often, when teachers join the school, they leave only when they retire. I am no longer surprised: when there are thoughtful people around you, you want to work in that environment!
