And in the afternoon, we held a "Let's try work experience" at the General Affairs Section of the Faculty of Agriculture's General Affairs Division .
First, a colleague explained about the Faculty of Agriculture and what kind of work the General Affairs Section does, and the children listened intently.

The next work experience included shredding, making a Thepla tape, and making envelopes for the school's internal mail.

After completing their work experience, the children commented that they enjoyed shredding, that they were a little nervous in a place where many people were working, and that the time passed quickly.

Parent who participated in this initiative commented that they were nervous at first, but was relieved to see that they were carefully completing the tasks assigned to them.
