2. Activities to encourage children in learning

 As an incentive to improve interest levels in academics, star badges are awarded to students. In Domlur schools, 25 students were awarded with star badges as a token of appreciation for their interest and performance in academics and extra-curricular activities. 120 diaries were distributed to children studying in 4^th to 7^th standard in Domlur schools. Children are encouraged to document their day-to-day activities in the diary to keep track of their work. In addition the diary has additional information including child’s rights, important facts and figures and quick references which help the children in their academic work. The diaries have enabled the children to systematize their work.
