Pagdandi slum kids' day out to the Red Fort and Nehru Museum, Delhi

On 10th April Swechha's Pagdandi programme (environment and life skills education for slum kids of Jagdamba Camp) organised an excursion to a couple of Delhi sites chosen by the children - the Red Fort and the Nehru Museum. We met the 110 children in the morning in front of their community, and set off with 2 buses. The kids were excited to drive through Delhi's wide streets and chanted names of places of interest - like 'metro, metro metro!' or 'Old Fort, Old Fort, Old Fort!'. Tour guides explained the Red Fort history. We had a picnic lunch on the lawns of the Nehru Museum, and at the end of the day everyone enjoyed playing on the large lawns.
