HF JOY OF KNOWLEDGE 6

It is indeed very necessary to include General Knowledge as a subject in the school
curriculum. This is because the immense pressure to excel at studies can oblige
school children to neglect many other meaningful things. But in a larger sense,
education is much more than mere classroom learning and the need to score high
marks. There is an endless variety of non-curriculum topics that can enrich
children's lives, if only they are gently guided towards them. By introducing students
to a vast array of useful information, this uniquely designed series encourages
thinking ability, enhances self confidence and creates awareness about alternate
careers.
