Sri Prakash Educational Institution is committed to delivering value-based education that extends beyond textbooks. True to this vision, the 8th-grade students recently embarked on an inspiring field trip to a small-scale handloom industry, gaining invaluable insights into a traditional craft. During the visit, the students were fascinated by the intricate art of saree weaving. They observed the meticulous arrangement of threads and the elaborate design processes involved in creating stunning handloom sarees. Subrahmanyam Garu, a knowledgeable member of the cooperative society, graciously answered their questions, explaining the origins of raw materials, export destinations, and the wage system for workers. This interactive session also shed light on the challenges facing the handloom industry in India. Students learned about the factors contributing to its decline, sparking discussions on potential solutions to preserve this heritage craft. The field trip was an enlightening and memorable experience, leaving the students with a deeper appreciation for the artistry and hard work behind handloom weaving. They returned with not just knowledge but also a renewed respect for traditional crafts that form an integral part of our cultural heritage.

Satyanarayana Raju, a versatile farmer, who has been promoting natural farming for years in order to bring awareness to people towards using naturally cultivated crops as their food. He interacted with the students about natural farming and its importance now- a-days.
