This resort resembled Egyptian Civilization consisting of two pools with Egyptian statues. Offering rejuvenation of mind and relaxation for the body, the resort also helps in pumping up adrenaline for enjoying adventure activities.

All the students danced to the rhythmic music on the dance floor with great energy. Even the teachers shook a leg along with the students. Students played swing, see- saw, and slides and   enjoyed Rain Dance, splashing water on one another.

After a tiring and fun packed morning the children headed for lunch. The dining hall, filled with the aroma of food triggered our hunger and children relished the delicious food. The next event was a magic show which all students looked forward to.  The magician performed some amazing tricks which both students and teachers enjoyed a lot. The most enjoyable act was where a pigeon turns into a pair of pigeons. After the magic show students played in the park.

All the students expressed a desire to revisit the place with their family & friends. Some also mentioned that though they had been to this place with their family, they enjoyed coming with their friends the most. We reached school at 3:40 pm. This was a great day for all the students and teachers as well, as it strengthened the bond between the students and their teachers. A class picnic not only refreshes but also gives us a chance to observe and spend time with nature. It was a delightful picnic perfectly enjoyed by all.
