I have reached the school by Saturday evening, but today I share the diary of 12.10.15.

Sendhurai really such a cool and calm village, I like it very much.

Went to the school, the children welcomed us with a greeting card which was nicely decorated and they gave kumkum and sandhanam. It was a very warm welcome and Shanthi mam introduced rest of the staff and helpers as we already know hema mam and jothi akka. During the material working time music will be played and here a veenai music was played and one child said change the music. Gollu was also being setup in the school in presence of the children, but none of the children left their material work to see the gollu setting or none of the children touch the idols which was kept on the floor which are to be placed on the step. The children doesn't disturb in anyway while setting up the gollu. The children here have more self-discipline and after the material works is finished a bell was rang and the children winded up their material very neatly and folded the mats and placed them were mats are kept. A dance (bharatanatiyam) video was shown to the children and all were watching and enjoying it, some even danced. During the silent time everyone was real quiet, a pin drop silence was maintained. During the circle time they were obeying and doing what the teacher has said. Like Porayar School here also it is a full working day. Afternoon, after having lunch the children went to sleep silently. During the meeting Hema mam showed us rest of the document which we have not seen in Coimbatore. Now I have got a clear picture of a uni5 Based Montessori school functioning. Thank you to all of you, who have given me the wonderful opportunity, showed and helped us in training.
