The students of Stds. IV A & B embarked on a journey to spend a day out, in order to get acquainted with the important landmarks and places of interest in Mumbai. On 12th February, 2014, the students boarded the bus at 9.15 a.m., to jump out of their classrooms (and books) and discover the places en route the journey to and fro from school. This adventurous field trip was exciting, thrilling, fascinating, enlightening and refreshing.

The students witnessed a range of landmarks associated with spirituality, knowledge, tourist attractions, recreation, travel and health. They came 'face to face' with places like Haji Ali, Mahalaxmi Temple, Siddhivinayak Temple, British Council Library, C.S.T., Gateway of India,Marine Drive, Colaba, Fountain, Jehangir Art Gallery,Prince of Wales Museum, Reserve Bank of India, Lion Gate, Mahalaxmi Race Course, Taraporewala Aquarium, General Post Office, K.E.M., Wadia, St. George Hospitals, etc. The scenic view of the beautiful beaches and places of knowledge like the Nehru Centre, government buildings like Mantralaya, Naval Headquarters, hotels and gardens offered a good blend of all aspects related to the life of the Mumbaikars!

The final destination was our friendly neighbourhood - Five Gardens. Here the students got a chance to be one with nature and play in the company of trees and plants. They were fascinated to see bats hanging from the tall trees and the beautifully trimmed and well-maintained gardens.


The field trip to the various places of interest in Mumbai was an enriching experience which made learning outdoors fun-filled and enjoyable. This awesome field trip drew to a close at 12.15 p.m., and brought the students back to their books, not before experiencing how the wonderful information in their books can come alive! An enthusiastic batch of students then followed the field trip with interesting feed-back and joyful inputs in their classrooms.
