A Mission Begins – Royal Public School
We, the team from Kalpaka NGO, walked into Royal Public School with one goal: to teach young minds about water conservation. But little did we know, we were about to witness some of the funniest and most heartwarming moments of our journey!
“What If There Was No Water?” – A Wild Imagination Exercise
-
“No pani puri!”
-
“My dog won’t get water!”
-
“We can’t take a bath! …Wait, that’s a good thing!”
Laughter erupted. But soon, their giggles turned into thoughtful expressions as they realized the seriousness behind the question.
Making Learning Fun
The Superhero vs. The Dripping Tap
The class loved it! Soon, they were all shouting out solutions:
-
“Turn off the tap!”
-
“Use a bucket instead of a pipe!”
-
“Catch rainwater in a drum!”
They weren’t just learning; they were thinking, laughing, and absorbing every lesson.
The Water-Wasting Championship – A Fun Challenge
We turned saving water into a challenge.
We told them: “Tonight, check how many times someone at home forgets to turn off the tap. Report back—who’s the biggest water-waster in your house?”
The kids loved the idea! Some were already planning to “catch” their parents in the act.
One student even whispered, “I think it’s my grandpa. He forgets everything!”
We couldn’t help but chuckle.
From Laughter to Realization – The Power of Small Actions
One little boy raised his hand and asked, “If we waste water, what happens to the people who don’t have it?”
That moment proved that they understood. This wasn’t just about facts and rules. It was about real people, real struggles, and real change.
A Picture, A Promise, and A Mission
Before leaving, we took a group photo, but this wasn’t just any photo—it was a promise.
A promise that these children would remember what they learned today. A promise that they would save every drop.
And that’s what makes it all worth it. Change doesn’t start with rules, it starts in a classroom, with a child, with a single drop of awareness—one that spreads and grows into something greater.
“Every Drop You Save, A Child’s Tomorrow You Protect. The Power Is in Your Hands.”
