Special Cell - Bhavan’s Wing for the Intellectually Challenged


 

“I am only one; but still I am one. I cannot do everything but still I can do something. I will not refuse to do something I can do”

A special wing for the intellectually challenged children has been operational at the school since 1986. Bhavan’s pet project, this special wing aims at imparting education to empower children with mental disabilities. The wing has 57 students under the care of Special Educators who are epitomes of commitment, infinite love and patience. These students are trained with utmost care and attention by the team that includes a speech therapist and a physical fitness trainer too. Trained in music, dance, computers, and pre- vocational and vocational training, these children also explore nature and the outdoors when they go on trips and excursions.
