Wenlido is a self-defence training which is designed to improve the physical, mental and emotional capabilities of girl child happened in the month of May. 10 trainings happened during this period for three different age groups of Balsena and Tarunsena girls ranging from 7 to 11 years, 12 to 15 years and 16 to 19 years. We had a participation of 214 girls in these trainings.

On 30th May, 2018 we had a cultural event to celebrate the success of 12 days of vacation camp. Children have shown great diversity by performing skits, dance, speeches, songs etc. under different themes like cleanliness, patriotism, social equality etc. We had a participation of 218 children on this day. On this occasion our Guest was Shri. SarvadamansinghRana, the great grandson of renowned freedom fighter Shri. SardarsinghRana who prepared the first flag of India. He shared lots of stories of the life of this great freedom fighter and also showed a documentary film based on his life. 

June, 2018 is the beginning of the academic year. We saw bundle of joy and enthusiasm among children as we started different activities in their respective areas. Through our regular Balsena activities, we reached about 745 children by the end of 30th June, 2018. Special programme like "Anti child labour day" on 12th June, was conducted to create an awareness among masses about the critical issue of "child labour". 124 Balsena children and many more children from outside joined the campaign. 

By the month of July, we expanded to 8 more areas to conduct our activities. This makes the total 20 area points for Balsena activities. Apart from the regular area activities, 3 Balmelas were conducted on the theme of "Child rights". We had a participation of 145 boys and 127 girls in the Balmelas. Through different activities children got aware of the 4 basic rights of right to protection, right to survival, right to development, and right to participate. 

Upcoming Events

August 19th, 2018 is planned for "Balsena Election Day" where new President and Vice president will be elected among children. Since July, preparation for this has been started by the election of President, Vice president, and 4 committee leaders in each area point. Among them, 12 candidates have nominated for the President and Vice president position. All children and staff of Shaishav are looking forward to make "Balsena Election Day" a grand success.
