Summer Camp for the children of Evening Schools

Summer Camp Highlight: Butterfly Craft Workshop by Prime Trust

At Prime Educational and Social Trust, summer isn’t just a season—it’s a celebration of creativity, learning, and joyful experiences! One of the most memorable activities of this year’s Summer Camp was the Butterfly Craft Workshop, where imagination took flight in vibrant colors and fluttering forms.

Theme: Transformation and Beauty in Nature

The butterfly, a universal symbol of transformation and hope, was chosen as the central theme of the craft activity. Just like the metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly, this workshop encouraged children to explore their own creativity and express their inner potential through art.

Activity Details:

Activity Name: Butterfly Craft – Wings of Imagination
Date: 1^st May to 31^st May 2025
Venue: Prime Trust Community Hall, Puducherry
Age Group: 6 to 14 years
Participants: 50+ children from local communities and the Janani Home for Girls

What the Children Did:

Children were provided with all the necessary materials, including:

Colorful papers and cardboard
Scissors and glue
Feathers, glitter, sequins, and pipe cleaners
Stencils and sketch pens

Our facilitators guided the children through:

Designing symmetrical butterfly wings
Cutting and folding techniques
Decorating with unique color patterns
Personalizing their butterflies with creative flair

The session was filled with excitement as little hands turned simple materials into stunning works of art. Each butterfly created was as unique as the child who made it—full of color, detail, and heart

New Remedial School to a rural community

New Evening School for a rural community

Prime Trust Expands Educational Outreach with New Evening School in Kolliyangunam

With deep pride and renewed dedication, Prime Educational and Social Trust has inaugurated a new evening school in Kolliyangunam, a rural village where access to quality education remains limited. This initiative reflects our steadfast commitment to bridging the educational gap and ensuring that no child is left behind due to poverty, distance, or circumstance.

The evening school is tailored to support children from marginalized communities, many of whom are first-generation learners. These students often face challenges such as lack of academic support at home, engagement in household or labor activities during the day, and limited access to basic educational resources. Our evening classes are designed to provide remedial education, homework assistance, and foundational learning in core subjects such as Tamil, English, Mathematics, and Science.

As a gesture of encouragement and practical support, Prime Trust distributed essential study materials, including notebooks, pens, pencils, and learning aids, to all the children attending the program. These resources not only alleviate the financial burden on families but also symbolize the start of a hopeful educational journey.

The launch event was met with enthusiastic participation from local families, volunteers, and community leaders, who expressed their appreciation for the positive impact this program is expected to have on the village’s youth. We also extend our heartfelt thanks to our donors and supporters, whose generous contributions have made this initiative possible.

Looking ahead, Prime Trust aims to expand this model to other underserved areas, with the vision of creating a network of evening schools that can reach hundreds more children across the region. With consistent community engagement, trained educators, and strategic partnerships, we are confident that this initiative will help transform lives and uplift entire communities.

We invite individuals, organizations, and institutions who share our passion for education to join hands with us. Together, we can empower children with knowledge, inspire dreams, and build a more equitable future.
