Kerala

A trip to God’s Own Country – Kerala

The last week of September will forever remain etched in the memories of students of our school, as 44 students and 04 teachers visited the two adjoining southern states of Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Places visited were Munnar, Kochi, Alleppey, Kovalam,Trivandrum and Kanyakumari The lush greenery, majestic mountains and tea estates of Munnar left them mesmerized by nature’s beauty. Their visit to a Tea Estate was very informative.

The trip also made them aware of the problem of tourists spoiling the beauty of our hill stations and the need to keep them pollution free. Some of the other places visited were Dutch Palace and Chinese fishing nets at Marine Drive Kochi. The trip would not have been complete without a sail in the serene backwaters on Kerala’s famous houseboat or ‘Kettuvallam’. Other enchanting places visited were Kovalam Beach in Trivandrum and Vivekananda Shrine at Kanyakumari. The students thoroughly enjoyed the trip and inculcated life skills like leadership, importance of keeping a time schedule and the need for sharing and co-ordination when travelling in a group.
