Gurukul Global School, Chandigarh

Students and faculty of the school recently returned from an inspiring educational tour of Europe. The centrepiece of the tour was the visit to the illustrious three-day camp at Euro Space Center in Belgium where the students immersed themselves in advanced simulations, experiencing the thrill of walking on the Moon and Mars, rocket launches, and zero-gravity environments. They explored the Mars Village to gain futuristic insights into resource sustainability and participated in a rocket-building workshop, culminating in the successful launch of their models and the awarding of diploma certificates. On their way to Germany, the group visited Luxembourg, celebrated for its cultural heritage and role within the European Union. In Germany, students marvelled at Heidelberg’s historic castles, relished scenic views during a cable car ride, and explored the iconic Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart, delving into the evolution of automotive technology. The journey concluded in Paris, where the Globalites were mesmerised by landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, and Champs-Élysées. A visit to Disneyland, Paris, infused the trip with a sense of wonder and excitement. Managing Director Praveen Setya and Principal Urvashi Kakkar emphasised the transformative power of experiential learning.
