2019-2020

As a part of UNNAT BHARATH ABIYAN, the students of B.Sc Mathematics and Chemistry of our college went to government primary school at Athivakam, Thiruvalur district on 29.02.2020.

The students conducted various activities on HEALTH &HIGINE. The Department of Chemistry explained food adulteration and its causes. Also, they demonstrated how to find adulterated food through experiments. The school students have enjoyed the show and some of them participated in the activities on food adulteration. The Department of Mathematics performed a street play to spread awareness about personal hygiene and the importance of keeping the environment clean. The village people are also taken part and enjoyed the street play. From these activities, the school students acquired knowledge about good habits and personal hygiene. We also cherished all the students by giving them a stationary kit which consists of a pen, a ruler, a pencil, a sharpener and an eraser. Finally, the Head Mistress of the School appreciated our students and the college for their initiative in spreading the awareness about food adulteration, Health and Hygiene.

To celebrate the National Science Day 2020, the Departments of Basic science (Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry) visited “Cholavaram Panchayat Elementary School” at Siruvapuri village, Thiruvallur District on Feb 28, 2020

The purpose of the visit is to inspire students towards various concepts, models, experiments and explain to them the importance of science especially the different applications of Mathematics. Also, our students created awareness about the various aspects and achievements in different fields of science. The students of the Department of Mathematics demonstrated the mathematics behind the Eiffel tower, fraction models (2D and 3D), Swing rides, and different Mathematical shapes with different colours through models. Also conducted various Math tricky games and Coin games to attract the students towards mathematics.
