"Life-Giving Experience: NSS Blood Donation Camp at KUCTE thevally"

-
"Donate blood, save a life, and make a difference." - World Health Organization




Today NSS unit of our B.Ed college, in association with the NSS Unit of Government Model Boys HSS Thevally, Kollam, and Bishop Benziger Hospital, organized a blood donation camp as part of our NSS program. As an NSS volunteer, I was eager to contribute to this noble cause.

I had decided to donate blood, but unfortunately, my hemoglobin level was found to be below the required threshold during the preliminary testing. Although I couldn't donate blood, I chose to participate in coordinating the program. This experience allowed me to understand the intricacies of organizing such events and reminded me of the importance of maintaining good health.

The program was inaugurated and expertly conducted by Dr. Amal Girishankar. The event witnessed an overwhelming response from students, teachers, and staff members, demonstrating their commitment to this life-saving cause. The camp collected a significant number of blood units, which will undoubtedly help save numerous lives.

This initiative reinforced the significance of voluntary blood donation and promoted health awareness among participants. The National Service Scheme (NSS) provides opportunities for personal growth, skill development, and civic engagement. This experience strengthened my commitment to the NSS ideals and motivated me to continue making a positive impact.

We extend our gratitude to Dr. Amal Girishankar for inaugurating and conducting the program, the NSS Unit of Government Model Boys HSS Thevally, Kollam, and Bishop Benziger Hospital for their technical support, and to all participants and volunteers for their enthusiasm and dedication.

 The blood donation camp was a truly life-giving experience, and I look forward to future initiatives that make a difference in our community.

"Teaching is the greatest act of optimism." - Colin Powell I started my 40-day B.Ed teaching practice internship at Government Model Girls High School, Kollam, in Thevally. This first week was a blend of learning, challenges, and excitement as I navigated through teaching practices, interactions with students, and adapting to the school environment. Day 1 - 14/07/25 - Monday It was a mix of excitement and nerves as I took a 5E model class on "Atoms" for 8B students in Chemistry. I used simple analogies and experiments to convey the concept, and the pupils were highly interactive as I encouraged their participation. I felt a sense of accomplishment completing the lesson plan despite struggling a bit with using the whiteboard (not being used to it before). A bit disappointed I couldn't ask review questions at the end due to poor time management, but I did ask continuous questions throughout to reinforce the concept. We also participated in ...

“Examinations not only test knowledge, but also patience, responsibility, and teamwork.” The sixth week of my teaching practice, from 18th August to 22nd August 2025, marked a change of pace as the Onam examinations began at school. The vibrant classroom atmosphere was replaced by a quieter, more focused environment. Instead of regular teaching, our responsibilities shifted to assisting with examination duties, distributing question papers, and ensuring smooth conduct of exams.

Day 25 - 18/08/2025 - Monday The first day of Onam examinations began with much anticipation. I was assigned examination duty in Room 8A.

The atmosphere was calm but slightly tense as students appeared serious and focused. I carefully observed how...

“Teaching is the one profession that creates all other professions.” – Unknown.
