A trip to Jaipur and Ranthambore was organised by The Shishukunj International School, Jhalaria for the students of Class VI during the Dusshera vacation in October 2026. About 135 students in three groups set forth on this journey along with the educators. Minutely orchestrated by the expert team at Edterra , the itinerary offered a complete tour of the Pink City Jaipur with some of the attractions being Amber Fort, an architectural marvel of Rajasthan, Choki Dhani where students enjoyed camel rides, folk performances, and scrumptious Rajasthani meal, Blue Pottery Workshop where students got to explore the artistic side of them as they painted marble tiles and experimented with block printing. The next day was spent at
Jantar Mantar where use of instruments to decode astronomy was the highlight. Proceeding towards Ranthambore next , the students were taken on a Jungle Safari where they spotted Sambar, Neelgai, Peacocks etc. Some groups who were fortunate were in awe of seeing the Tiger walk royally in front of their eyes. Visit to the Ganesha Temple and Ranthambore Fort
related fascinating stories of the past which left the students a little wiser. On the fifth Day , as it was time to return to Indore via Jaipur, the students were taken to Hathi Gaon where they learnt how this elephant village provided a safe home for elephants and their caretakers.
This trip brought students closer to nature, understanding the diverse ecosystem and learning the mutual coexistence among history, colourful Rajasthani culture and traditions and nature.The students finally paused for a group photo, sealing this special moment amidst the timeless charm of Jaipur.
