Description:

“The simplest acts of kindness often leave the deepest impressions.”

On 29 September 2026, the Inclusive Education Society undertook an outreach visit to Sneh Sadan, Gajraula, a home for destitute children with special needs, lovingly cared for by the Sisters of Grace.

The initiative was made possible by the wholehearted support of the Senior School, whose students generously contributed a wide range of essential items for the children. Their response reflected the spirit of compassion, service and social responsibility that the visit sought to encourage.

Accompanied by Mr. Dennis Mathew, Teacher In-charge, the students spent time at Sneh Sadan interacting with the children and learning about their lives, experiences and everyday routines. These interactions gave them an opportunity to look beyond differences and better understand the importance of empathy, dignity and inclusion.

The students also visited St. Mary’s School, an extension of Sneh Sadan, where they gained further insight into the care, education and support provided to the children. The dedication of the Sisters of Grace and the warmth with which the students were received made the experience particularly meaningful.

More than an outreach programme, the visit became a lesson in perspective. The students returned not only with a greater awareness of the lives of children with special needs, but also with a deeper appreciation for compassion, acceptance and the value of human connection.

The Inclusive Education Society extends its sincere gratitude to every Senior School student who contributed to the donation drive and helped make the initiative possible.

Ultimately, the day was a reminder that service is not measured merely by what we give, but by what we understand, what we learn, and what we carry back with us.
