Along with education, the most crucial aspect of growing up is learning new skills. And A set of basic rules that are gained through learning or with direct experiences in life are termed Life Skills. These skills enable groups and individuals to tackle various sorts of issues & problems effectively which are commonly faced in daily life. They are the abilities for adaptive & positive behaviour that enable human beings to deal with every life challenge & situation effectively.
Activities like critical thinking, creative art & craft work, decision-making, problem-solving, an ability to collaborate & communicate along with a sense of responsibility towards personal as well as society at large, to contribute good citizenship comes under Life Skill
At bluegrass, we believe in taking students through these experiences in order to gain valuable life skills.
Schools all over the world, at large, adopt an academic-centric model of Education. For the most part in schools, the learning process is confined only to classrooms. In fact, this process is more about gaining facts & less about learning. The best way to address this problem is to introduce life-changing skill training in the school-based curriculum. Bluegrass gives them such options at the onset of teenage which gives them the chance to explore & learn more things beyond their textbooks & whatever is taught in classrooms. One more advantage of introducing Life skills to kids is that they get the freedom to choose at an early age. Skills like team spirit, inquisitiveness, creativity, trustworthiness, sympathy, coordination, assertiveness and much more come with life skill activities. And the freedom to choose and make informed decisions is the best gift we can give to our future generations
At bluegrass, We follow the Mantra, “Children must be taught how to think, not what to think”.
