Health Sena Volunteers Training (TOT)
The Sneha jyothi Light to Life project arranged a training program for the children who are interested in health campaign and wanted to become a health professional in future. 40 children were joined us and the project staff and health professional were lead the sessions. It was a one day program and every one participated in it very joyfully and interestingly. The children came to know about the importance of health screening and BMI (Body Mass Index). It helped the children to do exercise in proper way keep their body as healthy and tidy. It was really a TOT training and after the completion of the training, the members were decided to form a volunteers group namely, Health Sena and it mainly focus to educate the other children in the project and also the community. The project decided to conduct health awareness campaign in community level in association with cluster level parents’ leaders’ forum called “Sisumithra”. The trained children are taking care of the hygiene, health, etc.. of the project children and they are giving leadership for health screening, providing First Aid for the children who are in need. It is the great pleasure to share that the Health Sena members started a new program called Sneha jyothi Life Care and the members selected 25 grandmothers for the community and who are living alone and isolated. They are interested to visit those people and prepared a plan of action as part of the health training.
Children Theatre Workshop
The Sneha Jyothi Life to Life project conducted a theatre workshop on 15th August 2025 for the children who were interested in acting and other performing arts. The participants were selected as per their interest, skill, etc..! As part of the selection, we had conducted a script writing workshop and script writing competition. The children were joined us with great interest and enthusiasm. We have selected the best one of the submitted scripts and arranged a workshop to train the children to perform it in the stage. 30 selected children were participated in the acting workshop and it has been inaugurated by Rev. Sijin Thomas Varghese, the Project Director. The children were trained in the following matters: a. Elements of good scripts. b. Importance of properties in a script. c. Acting- an introduction d. Body language and movements in stage. e. Voice modulation. They trained well and equipped to present a script in the stage. The project is also planning to use that drama to educate the children about Honesty and planning to start an Honesty shop in project campus. The story had been taken from the school syllabus of 5th Grade and it also strengthened their studies and it helped to connect the project activities with school subject. It also motivated the weaker students to learn their lesson in an interesting way (Participatory Learning and Action).
