As a part of ‘Freedom15’, we are providing an Internship programme as our February event. Even though we had provided internship programmes to engineering students and graduates in the past, it is for the first time SPACE coming with a comprehensive programme and announcing an open call for the same. We are planning to provide internships to at least 15 candidates throughout this year on different technologies we are working on. Registrations will be kept open until we find and select suitable candidates for our various programmes.

15 Years of SPACE at Free Software Movement.

May Flowers 2016

May Flowers 2016, the summer camp of Insight was organized from 2

about a change in the monotony of the routine affairs of its students and to bring about enthusiasm

and inspiration for the next academic year. It was a child centered programme away from

technology and academic pressures. Everyday started with a morning prayer followed by

relaxation exercises to help them reduce the stress and enjoy the rest of the day. There was music

and creative movements everyday through dance to improve balance and gross motor skills.

Camp had sessions to promote personal development in a non­competitive environment. Skills that

would help in activities of daily living such as buttoning, tying shoe laces, plaiting hair, were

reviewed to help them do it independently. Personalized name key chains were made by them

which gave them an importance and pride in their name. A session which developed individuality

and creativity is framing their own photos and also decorating it. The campers were proud to take

home their framed photos and personalized key chains on the last day.

Kids' kitchen was another interesting multisensory activity for the kids in the camp. They were

able to touch, taste, smell all the ingredients of rice flakes snack, juice and sandwich. They had a

great time making food for themselves and eating it too.

Group activities were organized to help them interact with each other and have fun. Games which

can improve the fine motor skills and eye hand co­ordination such as sorting of grains and

colouring pictures using crayons were also included in the camp. Afternoon sessions were

refreshed by simple folk songs and action songs which are being hummed by them even after the

camp.

The camp came to an end with a tour to Kovalam, Aquarium and Veli tourist village on the final

day. The beach walk at Kovalam gave massaging to the soles of the feet and also improved the

blood circulation. The visit to Aquarium helped to calm down the autistic children and the bright

colours and moving shapes gave stimulation to their senses. At Veli tourist village, the children

were able to enjoy the boat ride and also cross the lake from one side to another through a floating

bridge. It was a beautiful scenic spot which helped both parents and children to relax and admire

the serenity of the lake and tourist spot.

The six day programme culminated with development of social skills, peer interactions, personal

development along with fun and entertainment.
