Important Activities and Events of the Month Karnataka Rajyotsava Negotiation Skills for Girls: Training Session Our School and Students Feature in COP26 Climate Summit Smile Foundation – Invited Talks by our Teachers Chess Training Week & Children’s Day
Climate Action Lab, a programme developed by Salesforce.org to nurture and support a generation of future leaders and environmental campaign groups. Through a range of projects that combine science and technology, students develop a wealth of skills useful all their lives. The project initially developed in Davos was extended to three locations around the world. We are extremely happy that Salesforce found Anjana School an ideal location for CAL (India). The project focused on three important environmental issues – monitoring air quality, studying wildlife by imaging and soundscape recording and analysing microplastics in waterways. In spite of students staying away from school due to frequent covid-induced lockdowns, our students were able to contribute meaningfully to the project, guided by a young team of teachers and volunteers. Apart from gaining precious knowledge through these activities, the experience they acquired through regular interactions with their peers at the other three CAL labs was more precious and this would positively impact their lifestyle choices and their career progression.
The unique learning platform trained students to develop ownership and responsibility for their Climate Action Lab, experiencing full processes from the setting-up and deployment of equipment as well as monitoring and analysing the data they acquired and drawing meaningful conclusions. They regularly shared their findings and discoveries with both local and global communities. With the real data at their hand students were able to plan their actions to invoke changes through building awareness and also contribute to the existing global collaborative environmental science research platforms.
November 01 : Karnataka Rajyotsava Celebrations
Anjana celebrated Karnataka Rajyotsava in the backdrop of demise of popular Kannnada cine actor Sri. Puneeth Rajkumar and also the covid restrictions imposed by the department of public Instruction.

Puneeth Rajkumar followed by hoisting of Karnataka flag by our Patron Sri. Srinivasa Palepu. Children and teachers sang Kuvempu’s Nadageethe and other popular Rajyotsava songs. Senior students highlighted the importance of the day by recollecting the events that led to the formation of Karnataka state. Children eagerly waited to witness several dance events by their friends dressed in typical karnataka colours. As always, the stage materials, prepration, costumes and makeup were taken care by the teachers with the help of support staff. It was a simple-yet- a-GRAND event.
Negotiation Skills /Art of Communication
Leadership training involves children learning to communicate effectively. The art of negotiation becomes necessary in solving disputes amicably.

The highlight of their talks was that all the presentation material they prepared and shared with their audience was based on their own learning and experience

I , a happy teacher at Anjana, like to share my views about ‘WHY ANJANA IS DIFFERENT?’
Most of the schools prevail in a concrete jungle. Even my schooling was done in one of such a ‘jungle’. When I entered here, I was wonder-struck! I couldn’t believe my eyes. A school in the cradle of Mother Nature. Fascinating flora flavored the whole environment. If a person visits a place like this once, he / she would feel rejuvenated at least for a couple of months. And such a place is going to be my workplace! The very thought of it delighted me. This delectation is continuing forever to all the people present here. If I have to express this in a few words, I would just say that ‘Anjana is a paradise on earth!
I do still remember that my schoolmates and I just merely existed as students in our school life. But here, I found that each and every child is living its life as a happy student. The students are not just having the education but experiencing it! For instance, a lesson about germination is not taught using the blackboard and a chalk in the class room but with seeds and soil in the garden. And that is Anjana!
Our school constantly takes efforts in building a healthy society by caring the health of each and every student. Not just mid-day meals are given here but 100% balanced diet has been provided to all the students. Valuable greens are cooked often to compensate for the nutritional needs of the children.
The values of our rich tradition and culture are transitioned to our children through celebration of festivals and events. All children participate actively and by that they understand the core reason as well as value in celebrating the festivals of our soil. We celebrate all festivals in our school. Kids feel happy to do Aarthi to Jesus on Christmas day.
I had just mentioned four reasons as answers to the question, ‘Why Anjana is different?’ but there are plenty of other reasons as well. When other institutions pat their own shoulders and declare their students as ‘Best students’, I would definitely say that our students are ‘Blessed students’!
Namaste, everyone. We would like to share the updates and events in 2021 at AVK school in this newsletter.
THANK YOU:
The biggest lesson learnt in this year is to show gratitude as much as we can to others to make this world better place to live. Covid pandemic has taught us how important it is to cherish the meaning of life. Schools play a vital role in teaching right values like empathy, humility etc., and how to lead a meaningful life in this ever-changing world.
In BRAHMI, we have made a mission for ourselves to work on blending value education with traditional board syllabus for our AVK students. Suggestions and inputs for constructive changes are welcome to make the mission journey more impactful!
Class snap before pandemic hit us!
We tried our best to continue the process of progressing at Anjana in 2021 amidst the pandemic crisis mainly because of the confidence and blessings of noble people like you. We are grateful for having consistent supporters and volunteers who are shaping up the future of next generation rural kids.
SOLAR ENERGY @ ANJANA
APTIV dedicates Solar plant to School
A 15Kva – 10kWp Solar Hybrid Inverter installed by IIEC, providing continuous power supply to all our computers and vital installations including lights was dedicated to our school as part of the CSR initiative by APTIV Technologies, Bangalore. Our hearty thanks to Mr.Shyam and Mrs.Reeshma from APTIV who were the root cause of this initiative. This event was a part of the restricted School Republic Day celebration in Jan 2021.
SCIENTISTS @ ANJANA – Climate Action Lab
CAL session
Salesforce, one of our CSR partner has set up the Climate Action Lab in our school to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals’ 13th goal (i.e.) Climate Action in early 2021. Our school is one of the four places where such labs have been set up. The other three are in Tokyo (Japan), California (U.S.) and Davos (Switzerland). With able support of Ms. Kiranmayi of Salesforce and Mr. Ch Venkata Naga Sreekanth, consultant faculty , few selected students are involved in this program.
The purpose of this program is to educate the students about climate action issues and also about the wildlife around them. In this course of study, students learnt about latest technologies involved in wild life photography and also about testing pollutions. The team would comeup with a campaign to be given to local representatives to bring about a change and the same would be presented at the World Economic Forum that will be held in Davos.
GENEROUSITY OF LAM RESEARCH
The Corporate Social Responsibility Team at Lam Research India had distributed nutrition kits to improve the immunity of our school children. When the pandemic hit and schools had to close during the lockdown period, these nutrition kits played good support role in maintaining the students’ health and nutrition.
SWABHIMAN by SMILE FOUNDATION:
Smile Foundation did various camps and empowerment programs using our Campus targeting needy people in and around AVK school as part of Swabhiman program. A medical camp was organized people in and around our school on 31st July. A training program for empowering women entrepreneurs on 26th July, 12th & 13th August and 13th & 14th September in our campus.
Guidance and Awareness Training Programs on Self Image, Goal Settings and Time Management was attended by AVK students who are beneficiaries of Smile foundation scholarships on 26th August and 17th & 18th September.
TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAM:
In collaboration with Philips, a teacher training program was conducted for 10 weeks on Saturdays for improving their communication and interpersonal skills. This program commenced on 17th April and extended up to 19th June,2021.
FLOWERLESS GARDENS @ ANJANA
Schools have become flowerless gardens without the children who are the blood circulation of all the educational institutions for most of days in this year
It is not wrong to say that we have lost one academic year especially for rural institutions like us as we are not highly effective in this pandemic due to constraints like rural connectivity, economy etc though we tried our best within possible limits and options.
Based on the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) given by Karnataka State Government’s Education Department, our school was reopened to the students from VI grade to X grade at start the 2021. But due to second wave, when government announced the lockdown again, the children had been retained back at home. We struggled to reach our rural students by using the possible latest technologies amidst many inevitable challenges but with moderate success. We started online classes to our students of all grades from 5th of July . Teaching primary children was much challenging but our teachers tried their best. Finally, we have restarted physical classes voluntarily again from Oct 2021 and following as per state government Education department instructions.
Celebrations in AVK:
Many kind-hearted souls and institutions continues to support our operations which helped us to continue with our journey of learning & celebrations despite many challenges. We tried to capture some of those visits in photos & words here:
SRI VIDYA HOMA: Mrs. Karpagam & team visited our school for performing the homa. Mrs. Karpagam, who is a well-knowledged yoga practitioner and trainer, also conducted a yoga-nitra session for our teachers.
MOUNAACHARANAE: Mr. Hari & family visited our school for having a prayer for the departed soul of Smt. Jayanthi (cine actress), one of our patrons.
75TH INDEPENDENCE DAY CELEBRATION: Mrs. Reeshma & family and Mrs. Nitya & family made the simple celebration a bit grand by their presence. The pandemic abolished an awesome celebration of this great day but still our guests visits made it special.
We tried our best to capture most of the happenings in school and as always could not fit in all visits & events in school. Please visit us and help us to shape the future lives.
THANK YOU all again for being with us and appreciate your active & constructive inputs to make our journey more joyful and rewarding for everyone!
Wish you all happy and colorful deepavali 2020 from AVK Team. Thanks to our teacher, Ms. Sukanya, please find the yearly updates from AVK campus and will be posting newsletter on quarterly basis going forward…..

ACADEMIC YEAR 2020-21
CORONA – The hardest challenge to the world. But we encountered it bravely focusing on TEACHERS’ EMPOWERMENT. Our teachers were back to school in the second half of May, 2020 (by following all the terms and conditions as specified by the government rules) Our teachers were empowered by the latest techniques of teachings. Some of them were as follows:
TUTOR ON ONLINE CLASSES FOR TEACHERS
All the teachers were introduced to the next level of teaching – The Online Classes! Through webinar from EducationKnot, experts tutored our teachers to handle the online classes.
POWER – POINT PRESENTATION
All the teachers were taught to do the power-point presentation. Weekly once, the teachers exhibited their presentations among themselves.
PHONEMIC AWARENESS CLASSES
The primary teachers were trained to teach the method of reading for the primary children using phonemics. This method gave a different dimension of teaching ‘How to read in English?’
EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION CLASSES
Our School founder, Mr.Channaraju had started this class for all the teachers to improve their English and communication skills. Along with the communication skills, the interpersonal skills were also focused in the class.
WHATSAPP CLASSES
We reached our students, who were left isolated in their homes, by whatsapp classes. These whatsapp classes were found to be very effective for all the students.
ONLINE CLASSES FOR STUDENTS
We had started online classes for the students of 9th and 10th grade. We’re able to reach our students through advanced level of teaching. These online classes proved the beautiful saying- ‘One should never be limited by challenges’.

Salesforce QTC are the usual suspects at our campus and this time we have thrown a new challenge to them, which is to build a hut for nursery plants. This assignment involves both mental and physical work. It requires to tickle the grey cells to come up with optimal dimensions for the hut. Though the location was chosen by the expert committee at the campus, the planning and execution was a combined effort of Salesforce QTC and Anjana.
Stage 1:
Identify the right baboo
Trim the projects
Transport to the location through human chain
Dig pits to drop the cement poles.
Place the supporting poles at appropriate location/distance and
Tie the bamboo to the poles
Prepare the structure.
Salesforce steam had to pause for stage 2 and post lunch they induled in the usual tasks of spending time with the motherless calf and attended to mundane tasks related to cow farm and spending time with the veggies.
No it is not Fake news. Salesforcebelieves in work hard and hāʻawing hard.
hāʻawi: giving in hawaiian language.
Yes Salesforce was hāʻawiing on a bright Tuesday morning at one of their favorite volunteering spot. Mentoring, engaging kids through sports, framing, cryptographyall happening @ one place.
Bitcoin, cryptocurrency etc. are the buzzwords and salesforce gave a glimpse of the same to our students.
Composite move: Salesforce do get their hands dirty in coding, this time they got dirt on their hands with organic farming. Maneuvering manure on a 4-wheel Push-Kart was the highlight. Digging their way through the pile of composite, transporting to the kart though human chain and getting to the the bed for the veggies, all happening in synchronously. Curious, take a look at the pictures.
Sowing time: Getting the farming bed ready for sowing. This Salesforce is doing it for the 3rd time and now they have got the idea on how it works.
Another milestone by Salesforce QTC team and this time on Guru Nanak Jayanti. Last time when they were here it was Diwali with plants and this time Guru Nanak Jayanti with Guru’s and Children. On this auspicious day, Salesforce QTC Volunteering team spend time with 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th grade kids in giving them “Gyan” on real life experiences and how one has to deal with challenges that are not taught in class room but faced by them in real life.
Engaging with Kids: There is nothing noble than donating time for the education of a child and I am very grateful for Salesforce team engaging kids and giving them a different perspective of real world scenarios.
Learning by doing: The new New science Lab was inaugurated with the support of Global spirit and TCS. On the day of inauguration, Gurus and Children demonstrated one chemical reaction and coule of physics demonstrations.
Organic Farming: After a day long with budding flowers, the children of Anjana, Salesforce QTC team shifted gears to budding seedlings. They wanted to get their hands dirty and they have got what they have asked for. This time they planted cabbage and chilli seedlings/saplings.
Diwali Organic Farming Status: Efforts put in by Salesforce QTC during their last volunteering has started bearing fruits or veggies. Below images show the growth on the organic beds worked upon by the Salesforce QTC team.
Another milestone for Anjana Kendra and Salesforce together and many more to come.
Salesforce QTC India arm celebrated their Diwali ’17 with a blast minus the noise & air pollution. Motivated team of Salesforce QTC engaged themselves by volunteering @ our wonderful place called Anjana Vidya Kendra, which is tucked away from hustle and bustle of the “Namma” Bengaluru. A picture speaks 1000 words, hence, I put down the pen and draw your attention to the pictures below:
Plantation the Organic way: Shovel Earth, lay dry composite, fill Earth again to make a bed (imagine composite is sandwiched between earth) , choose symbiotic veggies and sow the seeds.
Home made Pharma: Treating plants with organic pesticides by spraying organic insect repellent called AA (Agni Astra, its a secret recipe and if you want to know, come join us)
Grass cutting with crass (fodder for cows): Mother cow has been serving us since our childhood and it was a golden opportunity to serve her once. It was not easy to cut simple looking long grass. There is a technique which our expert Mr. Amresh taught the Salesforce team.
Website development: Talentend QTC team spent good amount of time to bring our school/organization website up-to speed. They ensured to updated the blogs and also revamped the website with latest templates to give our official website a boost. As on going process Salesforce QTC team is going to enhance the website by adding more features. Stay tuned.
Feeding Calf: Salesforce QTC team had heartfelt experience while feeding the motherless calf. I urge all the readers to rethink and go VEGAN to save these motherless calf ending up here, being fed by humans, instead being fed by their mother cow.
Master Chef – Village Guttahalli: Cooked delicious food using organically grown veggies from Brahmi organic farm + lot of salesforce spices brought the best of cooking. At the end it was finger licking cuisines that was served to all.
All-in-all it was soulful & amazing experience where in Salesforce and Brahmi have engaged and learnt each other organizations culture & values. Salesforce QTC team had first hand experience in organic farming that they have learnt various steps involved in organic farming. It also helped them to understand how various species in our environment help to sustain the growth of flora & fauna, local issues related to child educations and how Brahmi is making an impact in many children’s lives.
