A step forward to take Third Branch of Paathshala in Primary School premises ( Present address: Piara Waters Pavilion, Wright Road, Piara Waters) As we informed in our October Edition that a third branch of Paathshala was opened in Piara Waters on 25 October 2015 and the classes commenced on the same day. Hindi Samaj is taking it a step further. HSWA has submitted a proposal to the management of Piara Waters Primary School (PWPS) to start Hindi classes at PWPS premises in partnership with (PWPS) from next year school term-1. Hindi Classes shall be run by our Hindi School Paathshala teachers. The proposal has been taken very positively by the school management. PWPS management has forwarded the proposal to the Ministry of Education to obtain permission. Under the proposal, Hindi classes shall be open to both PWPS and outside students (age 5 and up) as well as adults. These classes shall be open to all who wish to learn Hindi as a second or third language. There will be no cultural or religious restrictions. The Primary School will be promoting Hindi classes in their school and Ministry of Education through advertising in school notice board, newsletters, emails, website etc. Primary objective of this proposal is to provide an opportunity to our students to develop basic and advanced skills in Hindi language as we believe that Education in Languages opens up career opportunities. This also provides a range of benefits, such as, stimulating brain development; enhancing literacy skills; and encouraging respect and understanding of other cultures. 3
