Educational Excursion to Bolpur, Santiniketan

St. Mary’s Arcadian School organized an enriching educational excursion to Bolpur, Santiniketan, offering students a unique opportunity to explore this historical and culturally rich site. Santiniketan, founded by the Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore, is renowned for its approach to education that emphasizes a close connection with nature and arts. This philosophy deeply resonated with our students, providing them with a holistic learning experience outside the traditional classroom setting.

The visit to Santiniketan allowed students to immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Tagore’s educational ideals, which advocate for a balanced development of the individual’s intellectual, artistic, and emotional faculties. The exposure to such a diverse cultural setting helped broaden their perspectives, fostering a deeper appreciation for cultural diversity and artistic expression. This excursion not only supplemented their academic learning but also contributed significantly to their personal growth and understanding of global cultural heritage.
