Comments:
This week was about Friendship. We talked about how bad friends can be a bad influence on us. We began our class with usual stretches and our shlokas, we took some requests from our little friends and reviewed some shlokas. We also learnt a new bhajan and 'Nandalaala', who is he can you tell us? We also sang some old bhajans to refresh our memories.
We heard a story about Fox and the Stork and learnt a very important, what is it can you tell us in the next class? We made a craft of a mean fox which helped us remember the story once again.
We practised again the fifth shloka in Geetha chanting and we are really doing great learning all the shlokas.

As a reminder I just want reiterate what Ameetji was saying about the Entry and Exit policy. For ENTRANCE PLEASE DO NOT USE THE BACK DOOR AND ALSO DO NOT HOLD IT FOR ANYONE TO ENTER (you do not want to be held responsible for any mishap) Exit you can use the back door but if you use the front door while exiting you can eat prasadam :)
thank you for your cooperation.
