CORE KENDRA WEEKLY UPDATE BAAL MANDIR WEEKLY UPDATE On Sunday we did circle time and the baalko are starting to interact with each other more than previous weeks ,we then recapped the lines of asatyo maanhethee in prathna. We played games like dodgeball and lungri and the baalko seem to develop more of an understanding of the games they played. After we finished games we went to join Prathna with core kendra. The baalko seemed to enjoy it. The baalko could sing along as well. Dates for your Diary
