Moodbidri, Dec 24 : On 20th December 2023, a group of enthusiastic students of Carmel School, Moodbidri embarked on a heart warming journey to Spoorthi Special School, an institution dedicated to nurturing the unique abilities of its students.

Students of grade VII A and B along with their class teachers Tr Amritha and Tr Shruthi were greeted with genuine warmth . The exchange of laughter and dance moves became a language that transcended any differences. These moments reinforced the idea that joy knows no boundaries. Food items and necessities were also distributed. With gratitude and a renewed perspective, the students bid farewell to Spoorthi Special School, carrying with them the warmth of their welcome, the echoes of shared laughter, and the profound lesson that the spirit of learning and joy knows no limitations.

Carmel school also had organized a heart-warming outreach programme for grade 8 students at Mount Rosary Old Age Home in Alangar, where destitutes experience the warmth of God's love. The students along with their class teacher Sir Prajwal were graciously welcomed by the sisters of Mount Rosary Old Age Home.

The initiative began with the distribution of essential food items and necessities to the destitutes, reflecting their commitment to supporting those in need. A short programme was led by a prayer service followed by an entertaining dance on Christmas Carols, Live crib presentation and so on. All the sisters and the destitutes were overjoyed by the short Christmas programme which was given by the students. At last the students had a friendly conversation with them whereby some of them shared their bitter feelings/ experiences and joys with the students. Overall it was a wonderful experience for all of them.

The students and teachers were thankful to the Management and the Principal of Carmel School for giving an opportunity for such an experiential outreach program.
