Village Links
Visits to villages on the outskirts of Chennai are arranged
for groups of children. Children are encouraged to question
and interact with the villagers and take part in their daily
activities. It is a a unique opportunity for city-bred youngsters
to understand and appreciate the essence of life in the
villages. A walk in the fields and breakfast under big banyan
trees are always enjoyed by the participants.
Special programs for village children are also arranged
both in the village and at DakshinaChitra.
