Prefab classrooms apart from studies provides the opportunity for vocational training for a special group of children in the field of as painting, music, beads sorting and production of earrings, necklace, bracelets, etc. The paramount part of this prefab cabin is that it can be dismantled and reset again at a different location therefore the effort in building a classroom is not wasted.
Handing over the portable cabin to the students of Saksham Daksh School, Mr. Vinay Jhari, Director and Sapient Noida Office Lead said “Sapient as an organization emphasizes on child education as a cause through its Corporate Social Responsibility program. And today through this prefab classroom we seek to empower physically challenged children in bringing out their creativity and maximizing their true potential.”
Commenting on the generous work done by Saksham and the benefits of pre-fab classroom he added, “Saksham has been working for the educational and re-habitation needs of people with vision impairment for close to a decade now and have undertaken multiple activities from Digital Audio Book Production Centre to Aids and Appliances distribution Centre and Audio Description of Films. The prefab classroom will address challenges like space crunch, non availability of classrooms and enable teachers to spend more time with children in the vocational group and provide an opportunity to the children to unleash their creative aspects.”
The pre-fab classroom will benefit vocational student groups in different classes during the day- for painting class - seven children, for beading classes - four children from the deaf-blind section and six from the low vision academic group. The prefab classroom will also host music classes twice a week for a group of six children.
