Image
On 24/11/2024, we a team of 40 people along with professional volenteers of AMAS KERALA conquered Kondaketti Hill(700 meters high), a feat that was inspired by the determination and spirit of our 84-year-old team member, Sree Prem Vallab Chamoli. Mr. Chamoli's presence on the trek served as a reminder that age is just a number and that with the right attitude, anything is possible. The Kondaketti Hill trek is a challenging one, but Mr. Chamoli never let his age get in his way. His positive attitude and unwavering spirit were an inspiration to all of us. In addition to Mr. Chamoli, the entire team, especially the volunteers of the organising team AMAS KERALA played a vital role in the success of the trek.

A Day of Delight at Mandrothu: A Teacher's Retreat

Image
Yesterday, the teachers of St. Thomas Higher Secondary School embarked on a much-anticipated one-day trip to Mandrothu, a journey that proved to be a delightful escape from the routine of school life. While the initial mood was a little subdued due to some unforeseen hiccups in the original plan, the timely and insightful intervention of the resort manager turned the day around completely, transforming a potentially disappointing outing into a joyous and memorable experience. We are immensely grateful for their quick thinking and adaptability. Our adventure began with a visit to the mesmerizing Mangrove forest. Climbing the sturdy mangrove branches was an exhilarating, almost mind-blowing experience, offering a unique perspective of this vital ecosystem. We felt a sense of childlike wonder as we navigated through the intricate network of roots and branches. The aquatic adventures continued with kayaking through the serene backwaters. Paddling our way through the calm waters, surro...
