Veleyaadu

Play (veleyaddu) is the #1 favorite activity here at Rising Star.  They get breaks two times a day during the school day to run off some energy and then after school we get to play with them from about 4:30 or 5 until about 6 PM.  This time is spent on the playground, playing soccer, cricket or sitting and talking.  It really depends on what you want to do that day. 

One volunteer brought these cups that you stack into a pyramid (the kids say piramar- pronounced like you have marbles in your mouth. Took Berlyn 10 min to find out they really said pyramid) and first one to build it WINS!

Here they go!


Almost there... 


Gopi wins!!!


Celebration is a big part of winning...



It keeps going!


And going....
