FEEL
We the students carryheavy load of bags to school which we cannot
escape but silently suffer, thinking that carrying the school bag
is nothing but hell.
Todays competitive world has made education overloaded to the
children mentally (with lot to study) as well as physically (with
lot of books to be carried).How good it would be if there was some
way out.
Not all schools have enough place to accommodate the books of all
the students. Then what can be the possible rescue especially for
the tiny children ?

ANGRAU
Oh..Carrying this bag is such a hell. Hope some fairy would come to
my rescue some day and lessen this load.
We felt- Can we cut down the load of Books to be carried?
Can we get back the smile on her face?
Yes.definitely but it needs a thought and importantly thought needs
implementation.

Thus, we thought that if we can bring a small change by reducing
the load of books many children will be benefited. Hence we have
chosen the topic for our project for the
DESIGN FOR CHANGE CONTEST, 2010
as
STUDY WELL WITHOUT THE LOAD OF HELL
We have chosen Class I to V children of our own school i.e.
Krishi High School, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad for
implementing the project

was very happy and gave us valuable suggestions &
blessings.
The Kind co-operation extended from the class teachers of I to V
standard for implementing the project in their classes filled us
with more energy and encouragement to proceed.

less number
of subjects

*Teachers should design their time table to teach only three
subjects per day.
*Home work and class work should be maintained in
one book only.
*School should provide protected water so that
carrying water bottles will be reduced.
*Encourage students to read the text books
*Rack facilities must be provided in each class.
*Printed papers must be given as a reports of home
works instead of books which reduces the weight

We were alarmed to know from the doctorthat carrying
heavy bags on the back
may effect abdominal
cavity in turn effecting
the nutrition.
It may also hamper the
Physical growth.
Students might become
restless and irritated
which may effect their
studies & performance in
activities.

PARENTS OPINION:
Dr. Jhansi Rani, Associate Professor, ANGRAU; & Mr.Vemuvandanam
said weight of bags are hampering the physical growth of children
leading to defective postures reflecting that they are not self
confident.
Jhansi aunty suggested
Dividing the text books into three parts as per three terms
will reduce the load.
STUDENTS OPINION:
Students expressed their agony in carrying heavy bags and
Were happy to know about our ideas in solving their problem

PLAN OF ACTION:
After listening to the opinions of different people
Our team discussed with our mentors and decided
to separate & stitch the text books and work books in to three
parts according to three terms to reduce load.
Children will carry only books of that term, thus giving them
relief from carrying a whole book.

POST PROJECT WORK
Happy with the concept, our Head master and
Special officer Sri.Ratnakar decided to implement the
Idea this whole year and further too.
After implementing to the classes I to V, now talks are
going on to implement it to higher classes by changing
the time table, with less number of subjects covered
each day.
We wish to pass on this idea to other schools too, so
that their students will also be benefited like us.
