Class 1 visits the National Rail Museum

An excursion to the National Rail Museum, located in the heart of Chanakyapuri,was organised for students of class 1 of The Indian School on Wednesday, 28 August 2019.

Six teachers of the Primary escorted 179 students to the museum. The object of the trip was to introduce our students to our railheritage.

The students were walked around andobserved the different models of trains and were shown how they work. The museum boasts many locomotive models, photo exhibitions and a toy train ride amongst other things. The students were told theimportance of the Indian rail network and were ushered to explore the exhibits independently as well. Safety was ensured by the class teachers and discipline was maintained, but apart from that, students were given the freedom to observe and enjoy the museum. They loved the ride on the toy train and the hustle around the engines and bogies. Some students even delightedly squealed as the little train chuffed away.

The sunny day concluded with the bright and wide smiles on the childrens faces asproof of a well spent fun day!
