'Homestay camp' to help NRI students explore their roots
Similar scenes unfolded in Thiruvananthapuram on Friday, as the Malayalam Mission teamed up with the Kattakkada Assembly constituency to organise a three-day camp titled Verukal Chirakukal (Roots & Wings), as part of which 25 NRI students will stay at the homes of as many local children.
Inaugurated by Cultural Department director Divya S Iyer at Puliyarakonam, the camp features students from GCC countries, aged between 8 and 15, who will be engaged in a wide range of activities during their stay.
'The camp is envisioned to foster cultural exchange between Malayali students brought up abroad and in Kerala,' says Kattakkada MLA I B Satheesh.
