New Delhi, Nov 17 (NationPress) The Adani Foundation, with the backing of Adani Electricity, recently marked Children’s Day by engaging more than one lakh students from various schools in Mumbai.
As part of Project ‘Utthan’, the Adani Foundation and Adani Electricity orchestrated the celebrations under the theme ‘Bachpan Ka Utsav’ on November 14, reaching out to “25 wards, over 900 schools, and more than one lakh students in Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) schools in Mumbai,” as stated in an official report.
In line with the ‘Bachpan Ka Utsav’ theme, the schools buzzed with delightful learning activities: a fun games hour, talent showcases featuring songs, dance, and mimicry, as well as a unique ‘teachers as students’ role play where educators and principals embraced the role of learners for a day.
The children relished activities such as drawing, painting, brain teasers, thumb painting, and relay games.
The festivities not only bolstered confidence but also nurtured teamwork and emotional connections among students, echoing the vision of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 that emphasizes play-based, activity-oriented learning during foundational years.
Project Utthan stands as a premier educational initiative by the Adani Foundation, executed in collaboration with Adani Electricity Mumbai Limited (AEML).
This initiative aspires to enhance foundational learning outcomes and elevate the overall quality of education within BMC schools.
With the mission to empower every child to learn with confidence, joy, and curiosity, Project Utthan emphasizes improving foundational literacy and numeracy (FLN) skills.
It also offers experiential and activity-based learning opportunities; enhances teacher capabilities through modern pedagogical tools; cultivates a positive, inclusive, and engaging school atmosphere; and aligns classroom practices with the objectives of NEP 2020.
Project Utthan operates across 25 wards in Mumbai, impacting more than 900 BMC schools and reaching over 1 lakh students annually.
By integrating structured academic support with innovative learning interventions, this initiative aims to empower both students and teachers while addressing learning gaps at the primary level.
