Author Visit-Dr. Devika Rangachari
Dr. Devika Rangachari, a historian and a well renowned children’s author visited Learning Paths School, Mohali. An interactive session on writing skills was arranged for the students to mark the celebrations of ‘International School Library Month’. The author shared her experience about her journey on becoming an author which she had never thought about as a child. Despite this, she has won 20 national awards for her published works. ‘Writing is flexible and goes easily with any career that you choose’, said Devika to the students. She suggested students to write about their fears and anxieties as this will certainly help them to get rid of these. The ‘Katha Club’ of the school had an opportunity to interview the author and had a fruitful discussion about creative writing. Dr. Devika encouraged the students to keep writing in order to better their work and to never give up on this talent. The budding authors of Learning Paths thoroughly enjoyed their chat session with the author and were motivated to take up writing as a serious hobby.
