Inspired by the vision of Dr. Bijaya Kumar Sahoo, this initiative aims to impart essential life skills through enjoyable activities, aligning with the broader goal of preparing children to make positive contributions to society. Running from 22nd to 27th January 2024, this camp caters to students from Nursery to KGII.
The SAI Happiness Camp focuses on promoting emotional well-being, social skills, and personal growth in children through engaging and enjoyable activities. Its holistic approach includes team-building exercises, inclusive games, mindfulness practices, and physical activities aimed at fostering positive moods and developing essential life skills.
The camp commenced with great excitement on 22nd January 2024, as young campers from Nursery to KG-II eagerly participated in a variety of enchanting activities. ‘Morning Energizers’ set the tone for a day filled with enthusiasm, followed by engaging activities such as Art & Craft, Hands-on Crunchy Creations, Adventurous Thrills & Water Sports Extravaganza, Puppets & Fables, and a surprise Flash Mob.
Parent Connect sessions provided an opportunity for parents to actively engage in the camp’s activities, reinforcing a sense of community and shared joy. The day concluded with a breathtaking ‘Skyward Dreams’ activity, where lanterns of hope and joy were released, symbolizing the collective dreams and aspirations of the young participants.
SAI International Education Group Chairperson Dr. Silpi Sahoo emphasized the importance of the happiness camp, stating, “Dr. Bijaya Sahoo always believed that happiness is a crucial element in a child’s growth, positively impacting emotional development, learning, and social skills. Happy children are more resilient, physically healthier, and tend to develop a positive self-image. Following Dr. Bijaya Sahoo’s vision, SAI organizes this camp every year to promote emotional well-being through positive activities and foster social skills in a supportive environment.”
Each day of the camp concludes with parents joining their children in the evening, enhancing the overall experience and creating lasting memories for all participants.
