Birla International School arranged a visit for grade 7th students alongwith teacher escorts to the Largest Literature Festival in Asia –Pacific - ‘Jaipur Literature Festival’ on 21 Jan2012 at Diggi Palace,Jaipur. The main attraction for the children was to meet and hear Mr.Prasoon Joshi and Shri Gulzarji. We were awed and thrilled to hear the song sung by Mr.Prasoon Joshi and reveled in the lovely imaginary drawn by Gulzarji in his poems.
The distinguished speakers also expressed their concern regarding the very short span of childhood and the loss of fantasizing ability to think creatively in the wake of digital technology where prototypes rule a child’s imagination.
It was a lifetime experience for students to interact and move amongst the literary giants and the group returned highly charged to begin their foray into the world of literature.
