The Best Excursion Ever!
The plan was set. A
school trip to the local museum – an educative way to break the daily
grind. We set off with high hopes, only
to find upon arrival that the museum was closed (only on Tuesdays, which this
day unluckily happened to be). Suffice
to say, we were all disappointed, adult and child alike. Then Buntty suggested Bhat Bhetini (a local
shopping centre) and I was both excited and scared.
Before we continue, here’s a little context:
Most of the children with us on this day suffer from varying
degrees of autism. As my ability to
control them within a schooling environment was already limited, the aspect of
controlling them in an arcade made me a bit sceptical.
However all of my fears were relieved once we arrived. The children were extremely well behaved and
had a wonderful time on the attractions.
The volunteers and staff were even able to sneak in a quick game of
bowling!
All in all, the best excursion ever!
