‘Field Trip to Sri Bhagyalakshmi Farms’
Class: 5 Date: 7 SEPTEMBER 2023 (Thursday)
National Public School, Yeshwanthpur organized a field trip for the students of Class 5 to Sri Bhagyalakshmi Farms on Thursday, 7 September 2023. This school field trip was designed to provide our students with hands-on learning experiences related to agriculture, animal husbandry and sustainable farming practices. The tour started with a tractor ride over the farms where students were educated about different types of crops, planting techniques, seasonal crops, intercrops, mix farming and much more. It was integrated with Horticulture, Bonsai and Vertical gardening and Animal Husbandry. The Students explored the farm's greenhouses, where they gained insights into growing vegetables and herbs.
The farm had a beautiful segment where students were able to get close to farm animals. They were offered a unique opportunity to observe the diverse array of birds and aqua life under one roof.
The main attraction of this farm is ‘The Green Heaven’ nursery which is a botanical paradise for all plant enthusiasts. This beautiful place greeted us with a breathtaking array of vibrant flora that captured the minds of our students. The Farm has various plants but the main attraction was Gerbera Daisy which has a striking appearance and comes in many vibrant colours.
Overall, it was an enriching experience for our students. It allowed them to connect with nature, gain a deeper understanding of where their food comes from and appreciate the hard work that goes into various flowering types of farming. We hope that this trip will inspire our students to make more informed choices about their food and the environment.
