ABSTRACT

PHILOSOPHY

SCHOOLING IS AN IMPORTANT PHASE IN A CHILD’S LIFE WHICH AFFECTS THE OVERALL DEVELOPMENT OF A CHILD; ACADEMIC AND ALSO AS A HUMAN BEING. SCHOOL DESIGN INCLUDES VARIOUS FACTORS LIKE PSYCHOLOGY OF CHILDREN, TEACHING, METHODS ADOPTED BY THE SCHOOL, BOARD REQUIREMENTS, QUALITY OF EDUCATION PROVIDED AND SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT OF THE SCHOOL. BROADLY, THE BASIC DESIGN FACTORS INFLUENCING SCHOOL ARE ENVIRONMENTAL, EDUCATIONAL, AND ARCHITECTURAL. SCHOOLS WITH DIFFERENT PHILOSOPHIES HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AND ASSOCIATED WITH ITS VISUAL IMAGERY AND ARCHITECTURAL CHARACTER TO UNDERSTAND HOW THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE SCHOOL IS REFLECTED.

AIM TO DESIGN AN ENVIRONMENT THAT FOCUSES ON EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING TOWARDS EDUCATION.

OBJECTIVES - COMMUNITY INVOLVED SCHOOL - TO BRING GLOBAL AWARENESS TO THE RURAL LEVEL - TO BRIDGE GAP BETWEEN URBAN LIVING AND FARMING ETHOS. - TO PRESERVE CULTURE THROUGH EDUCATION - CHILD CENTRIC APPROACH VTO EDUCATION - HANDS ON APPROACH TO LEARNING - TECHOLOGY IN EDUCATION - TO FIND A BALANCE BETWEEN TECHNOLOGY AND HANDSON LEARNING IN THE DIGITAL ERA. - FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION. - LEARNING OF HUMANISTIC VALUES OVER BOOK LEARNING.

INTENT CONCERN

THE INTENT OF THIS SCHOOL IS TO EQUIP CHILDREN WITH A WILL TO LEARN THROUGHOUT THEIR LIFE. THE PROJECT IS INSPIRED FROM VARIOUS PHILOSOPHIES AND EXAMPLES FROM AROUND THE WORLD, STEINER’S WALDORF SCHOOLS AND JIDDU KRISHNAMURTI’S SCHOOL.

INTRODUCTION Education in India : FORMAL EDUCATION IN INDIA WAS ESTABLISHED DURING THE 1800S BY A BRITISH HISTORIAN, THOMAS BABINGTON MACAULAY. INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION WAS IN FULL SWING IN ENGLAND. THE EAST INDIA COMPANY NEEDED CLERKS AND ENGINEERS FOR THE SAME, AND SO A CURRICULUM WITH THE HIERARCHY WAS ESTABLISHED STEM > HUMANITIES > ART. MACAULAY BELIEVED IN UNTILITARIAN PURPOSES OF EDUCATION AND COMPLETELY DISREGARDED THE INDIAN CULTURAL CONTEXT; MOREOVER HE WENT ON TO STATE, “IT IS, NO EXAGGERATION TO SAY THAT ALL THE HISTORICAL INFORMATION WHICH HAS BEEN COLLECTED FROM ALL THE BOOKS WRITTEN IN THE SANSKRIT LANGUAGE IS LESS VALUABLE THAN WHAT MAY BE FOUND IN THE MOST PALTRY ABRIDGEMENTS USED AT PREPARATORY SCHOOLS IN ENGLAND.” THE ENGLISH EDUCATION ACT OF 1835 WAS PASSED. ART IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF WHAT MAKES US HUMAN, ESPECIALLY IN INDIA’S CONTEXT. Preservation of Culture : ART IS A METHOD OF PRESERVING CULTURE. CRAFTSMEN WHO PRACTICE THE TRADE ARE SENDING THEIR CHILDREN OUT TO OTHER FIELDS BECAUSE THERE IS NO SCOPE IN THEIR FIELDS. IF WE AS A NATION DO NOT GIVE IMPORTANCE TO THEIR TRADE, WHO ELSE WILL VALUE IT? AS NELSON MANDELA HAS SAID, “EDUCATION IS THE MOST POWERFUL WEAPON WHICH CAN BE USED TO CHANGE THE WORLD.” LANGUAGES ARE DYING BECAUSE THE LACK OF IMPLEMENTATION IN THE SCHOOL SYSTEM. INDIA BEING AN AGRAGRIAN NATION, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT CHILDREN ARE TAUGHT HOW TO FARM. NOT ONLY DOES THIS TEACH THEM REVERING FOOD, BUT ALSO CULTIVATES THEM TO BE MORE INDEPENDANT AND SELF SUFFICIENT HUMAN BEINGS. EDUCATION THAT INCULCATES IN CHILDREN THE TRUE VALUES OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BELONG TO THIS COUNTRY. FOR EXAMPLE, RESPECTING ELDERS IS TRAIT DEEP ROOTED IN OUR LINEAGE WHICH ISN’T THAT PROMINANT IN OTHER CULTURES. THIS QUALITY NEEDS TO BE RESPECTED IN THE YEARS TO COME. UNLESS IT IS SPECIFIED IN THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM, CHILDREN COULD FALL CULPRIT TO THE BLIND MIMICRY OF THE WESTERN WORLD. Love for Learning : EDUCATION SHOULD BE A MEANS OF LEARNING HOW TO LIVE A WHOLESOME LIFE, RATHER THAN GAINING CONTENT KNOWLEDGE ONLY (DEWEY, 1938). THE COMBINED ACADEMIC YEARS MAY HARDLY BE ENOUGH TO TEACH A CHILD ALL THE SKILLS THAT THEY COULD POSSIBLY REQUIRE IN THEIR LIFETIME. SO INSTEAD OF STUFFING ALL THE SKILLS, TEACH A CHILD HOW TO LEARN INSTEAD OF WHAT TO LEARN. ACCORDING TO STEINER, LEARNING CONSISTS OF AN ELEMENT OF WILL, WHICH IS CLOSELY TIED TO THE BODY AND THE SENSES, AS WELL AS OF EMOTION AND COGNITION. CONTRARY TO “HEAD-LEARNING” STEINER SCHOOLS FOCUS ON “LIMB-LEARNING” (BJØRNHOLT, 2014)

Education in the Age of Internet : THE NEXT GENERATION OF STUDENTS ARE GOING TO BE DIGITAL NATIVES ((BOYS, 2011). PRIOR TO THE DIGITAL ERA, INFORMATION WAS NOT AS READILY ACCESSIBLE AND SO THE PRIMARY ROLE OF THE EDUCATOR WAS TO PASS ON INFORMATION TO STUDENTS BY SELF PREPARED NOTES FROM THE TEXT BOOK (WIKRAMANAYAKE, 2005).

STRATEGIES

SR. NO. 1.

THE STUDENT TEACHER RELATION- CLASSROOM MODULE DESIGN PROMOTES SPACES FOR LEARNING- FORSHIP SHOULD BE ENHANCED BY THE MAL AND INFORMAL. THE TEACHER STUDENT RATIO IS 1:24. SMALLER DESIGN CLASS MAKES SURE THERE IS PERSONAL ATTENTION TOWARDS THE STUDENT, HENCE GROWING THE STUDENT TEACHER BOND 2. THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT SHOULD THE CLASSROOMS ARE DESIGN IN A WAY TO PROVIDE COLLECTIVE ALLOW FREEDOM OF THOUGHT AND LEARNING. SPACES NEAR THE LIBRARY ARE PROVIDED FOR INDIVUAL AND SPACES TO EXPLORE AND LEARN. SMALLER GROUP LEARNING. THE FARMLANDS ON SITE AND THE ROCKY TERRAIN MAKE IT AND IDEAL PLACE FOR THINKING, DAY DREAMING, AND CONTEMPLATION. 3. THERE SHOULD BE SPACES AVAIL- SPACES SHOULD BE DESIGNED IN A HIERARCHY OF OPEN SPACES SO AS ABLE FOR CHILDREN OF THE ENTIRE TO REFLECT AND CATER TO EACH CHILD. SPECTRUM OF EXTROVERTISM AND INTROVERTISM. 4. THE ACTIVITIES IN SPACE PROGRAM ACTIVITIES LIKEFARMING, TREKKING, BOULDERING/ROCK CLIMBING, CONSHOULD PROMOTE UNDERSTANDING OEING AND WATER SPORTS, HAVE BEEN PROPOSED SENSITIZING ONE THE NATURE, NATURAL SURROUND- TOWARDS NATURE AND ALSO ATTRACTING VARIOUS SPECIES OF BIRDS. INGS, LEARNING OF TRADITIONAL ART ART BEING ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ACTIVITIES. IT IS THE BASIS OF AND CULTURE, BEING ACTIVE AND FIT LEARNING ANY SUBJECT.

BY PLAYING SPORTS ALONG WITH REGULAR CURRICULUM. 5. PROMOTING LEARNING AS A TWO WAY THE IDEA OF TEACHER BEING THE SUPREME AUTHORITY AND STUPROCESS WHERE NO ONE IS SUPERI- DENTS BEING TAUGHT IS TOTALLY REMOVED FROM THE KRISHNAMURTI OR STUDENTS AND TEACHERS ARE SCHOOLS HERE BOTH ARE AT PAR AND LEARNING FROM EACH OTHER. THE AT THE SAME LEVEL LEARNING FROM STAFFROOMS ARE PLACED ALONG WITH CLASSROOMS. TEACHER ALSO ACTING AS A HOUSE PARENT REMOVES THE TOTAL NOTION OF SUPERIOREACHOTHER. ITY-INFERIORITY COMPLEX. 6. THE RESIDENTS SHOULD FEEL AT THE RESIDENTIAL CLUSTER IS DESIGNED TO ACCOMMODATE A HOUSE HOME AND DEVELOP PARENT- CHILD PARENT ALONG WITH DORMITORIES BUILDING AN ENVIRONMENT LIKE A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE STU- FAMILY LIVING TOGETHER. ALSO THE SIMPLE GEOMETRY AND FORM SIGDENTS AND TEACHERS NIFIES SIMPLE LIVING 7.

ADEQUATE SHADED OUTDOOR AREA. EVERY CLASSROOM HAS AN OPEN LEARNING SPACE ADJOINING IT. THE COURTYARDS CAN ALSO BE USED AS A LEARNING SPACE WHERE THE TREE FOLIAGE BECOMES THE ROOF AND THE CLASSROOM EDGE AS A DEFININIG EDGE OF THE OUTDOOR CLASS. ALONG WITH OUTDOOR CLASSROOMS STUDENTS LEARN FROM OBSERVING THE NATURE- LAKE, MOUNTAINS, LISTENING TO CHIRPING OF THE BIRDS, RUSTLING OF LEAVES, EXPLORING DIFFERENT PLANT SPECIES- MULSHI BEING RICH IN BIODIVERSITY. 8. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT IN THE COMMUNITY TO HAVE ACCESS TO SCHOOL PREMISES DURING AFTER SCHOOL SCHOOL HOURS IN THE EVENING.

LOCATION

FOUNDER OF KISHKINDA TRUST AT ANEGUNDI IN 1997. THE NGO WORKS TO EMPOWER COMMUNITITES AND CREATES A WAY OF LIFE THAT CONSIDERS CULTURE AS AN INTANGIBLE ELEMENT

ANEGUNDI IS LOCATED IN THE SOUTHERN STATE OF KARNATAKA, ON THE BANKS OF THE TUNGABHADRA RIVER AT A POINT WHERE IT MAKES A TURN NORTHWARD. SUCH A DIRECTION OF FLOW IS UNUSUAL AND HIGHLY AUSPICIOUS.

PERMEATING THROUGH ALL WALKS OF LIFE. SHE FOCUSES ON THE CAPACITY BUILDING OF LOCALS ACROSS MULTIDISCIPLINARY FIELDS - ARCHITECTURAL CONSERVATION, HERITAGE RESTORATION, CRAFTS, MANAGEMENT AND HOSPITALITY SO THAT THEIR LIVES ARE NURTURED, ENRICHED AND EMPOWERED BY THEIR OWN CULTURE AND IDENTITIES. SHE IS LOOKING TO BUILD A SCHOOL A LONG THE SAME PRICIPLES OF SELF SUSTAINANCE.

ACCESSIBILITY ANEGUNDI IS REACHED BY ROAD FROM THE NEARBY TOWNS OF GANGAVATHI AND HOSPET, AND IS SERVED BY LOCAL BUSES SEVERAL TIMES A DAY. THE QUICKEST ROUTE FROM HOSPET IS THROUGH THE ANCIENT SITE OF VIJAYANAGARA, FROM WHERE ONE HAS TO CROSS THE TUNGABHADRA BY A CORACLE AT THE RIVER CROSSING KNOWN AS TALARIGHAT. DUE TO THE SCALE OF THE VILLAGE, AND GOOD PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, ANEGUNDI IS PEDESTRIAN FRIENDLY WITH OCCASIONAL BIKES AND BULLOCK CARTS. ON ENTERING THE VILLAGE, ONE CAN CATCH GLIMPSES OF ANCIENT SHRINES, GATEWAYS AND WALLS EMBEDDED INTO THE HOUSES; THE SURROUNDING HILLS ARE FORTIFIED WITH WALLS AND GATEWAYS. ATTACKED SEVERAL TIMES THROUGHOUT ITS LONG HISTORY, ANEGUNDI WAS EVIDENTALY AN IMPORTANT ADMINISTRATIVE CENTRE FOR THE SURROUNDING DISTRICTS. THE ARCHITECTURAL REMAINS SPAN A CONSIDERABLE PERIOD, FROM THE TWELFTH AND THIRTEENTH CENTURIES DOWN TO THE PRESENT DAY.

CONSTRUCTION TWO MAIN MATERIALS ARE USED FOR WALL CONSTRUCTION AT ANEGUNDI; MUD AND STONE. RIDGE ROOF HOUSES ARE MOSTLY FOUND ON THE PERIPHERY OF THE SETTLEMENT. RIDGE ROOFS ARE CONSTRUCTED IN THATCH SUPPORTING POLES CAN EITHER BE A PALM TRUNK OR A TALL STONE COLUMN NOTCHED AT THE TOP. THE THATCH IS LASHED TOGETHER USING ROPE OF COCONUT FIBRE AND CROSS MEMBERS ARE BAMBOO. DOORS CAN BE MADE OF VERTICAL WEAVE OF BAMBOO SRIPS. FLOORS AND WALLS ARE COATED WITH LAYER OF COW DUNG AS IT ACTS AS INSECTICIDE BY KEEPING FLIES AWAY. ANOTHER TYPE IS BUILT OF REGULAR STONE BLOCKS. BULLOCKS ARE USED TO GRIND MORTAR, THE OLD GRINDER STILL USED IN THE OLD PALACE. LIME, SAND, SUGAR CANE TO BIND THE MIXTURE, AND BETEL NUT WHICH ALSO ACTS AS INSECTICIDE ARE USED.

ANEGUNDI MEANS ELEPHANT PIT. THE ELEPHANT PIT IS AN AREA OF WATER BEYOND THE NORTHERN RIVER SIDE STEPS OF THE VILLAGE WHERE IS IS DEEP ENOUGH TO BATH ELEPHANTS. MAGOTA HILL

ANEGUNDI LIES WITHIN THE REGION OF THE MONKEY KINGDOM OF KISHKINDHA, AND THE BIRTHPLACE OF HANUMAN, IDENTIFIED WITH ANJANEYA PARBAT TO THE WEST OF THE VILLAGE AT LIES TO THE WEST OF ANEGUNDI. HIGH UP ABOVE THE SOUTHERN FORT OF MAGOTA HILL THERE A HIGHT OF 140M IS ANOTHER GROUP OF GATEWAYS WHISH IS SELDOM USED TODAY, EXCEPT BY THE OCCASIONAL FARMER WHO CULTIVATES POCKETS OF LAND IN BETWEEN THE BOULDERS. ANEGUNDI IS WELL PROTECTED BY NATURAL BOUNDARIES; TUNGABHADRA TO THE SOUTH AND EAST, AND HILLS OF HUGE GRANITE BOULDERS TO THE NORTH AND WEST. FURTHER PROTECTION IS PROVIDED BY MASSIVE FORTIFICATIONS, THE REMAINS OF WHICH CAN BE SEEN IN AND AROUND THE VILLAGE. THE SETTLEMENT EXTENDS OVER AN AREA OF APPROX 1 SQ KM. BEING BOUNDED BY THE RIVER AND HILLS, THE SPACE AVAILABLE FOR BUILDINGS IS LIMITED. MANY OF THE DWELLINGS ARE CONTAINED WITHIN THE CHARIOT ROUTE, A WIDE ROAD THAT RUNS AROUND FOUR SIDES OF THE SQUARE THAT CONSTITUTES THE CENTRAL CORE OF THE VILLAGE.

WEST OF ANEGUNDI ARE WALLS WHICH ENCOMPASS THE ROCKY MASS OF MAGOTA HILL WHICH OVERLOOKS THE VILLAGE. THEY SURROUND WHAT MUST HAVE BEEN A MAJOR SETTLEMENT. SOME DURGA TEMPLE Durga Temple - Google Maps 2 KM TO THE NORTH AND WEST OF THE CENTRE, ANOTHER SERIES OF WALLS RUNS ALONG THE3/19/2019 TOPS OF THE GRANITE HILLS, FILLING IN THE GAPS BETWEEN THE BOULDERS. THE FLAT LAND BETWEEN THE NEWLY FURBISHED SHRINE TO THE GODDESS DURGA STANDS BY A MAGNOLIA TREE ON THE Durga Temple THESE WALLS IS DOTTED WITH THE REMAINS OF ANCIENT HOUSE PLINTHS, ROOF TILES, WELLS AND HILLSIDE BENEATH THE MAGOTA HILL FORT POTTERY SHERD. ENCLOSED WITHIN THE SOUTHERN PART OF MAGOTA HILL ARE THE REMAINS OF A HISTORICAL LINKS WITH THE VIJAYANAGARA EMPIRE EXIST. THE PRESENT DAY RULES, FORTRESS WITH ASSOCIATED BUILDINGS. ACHYUTA DEVA RAYA, CLAIMS DESCENT FROM THE KINGS OF VIJAYANAGARA. MEN FROM THE BEDARU (WARRIOR CASTE) CLAIMS THAT THEIR FOREFATHERS WERE FOOT-SOLDIERS OF THE EM- MILITARY GATEWAY PEROR KRISHNA DEVA RAYA IN THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY.

AS PRESERVED TODAY, ANEGUNDI IS THE FORTIFIED NUCLEUS OF THE OLD TOWN WHICH CONTAINS ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS DATING BACK TO 14TH, 15TH, AND 16TH CENTURIES. SUGANDHA (1986: 62, 105) SUGGESTS THAT THE VILLAGE WAS THE FIRST SEAT OF POWER IN VIJAYANAGARA TIMES, ANTEDATING THE CITY OF VIJAYANAGAR AS THE CAPITAL. LATER, THE FORTUNES OF ANEGUNDI DECLINED TO TH NUCLEUS AROUND THE SQUARE.

AN ENCLOSED RIVER INLET LIES TO THE SOUTH-WEST OF ANEGUNDI ON THE TUNGABHADRA. ONE GATEWAY STANDS BESIDE THE RIVER, ANOTHER ON TOP OF THE RIDGE. THE BOTTOM GATEWAY AT THE RIVER BANK IS CRUDELY CUT STONE, WITH FLAT SLAB LIKE STEPS ON EACH SIDE. THE GATEWAY IS FLANKED BY BASTIONS, WITH LOW WALLS EXTENDING TO NEARBY INLET. THE RIDGE TOP GATEWAY IS PERCHED HIGH ON ONE RIDGE AT THE TOP OF A VALLEY WHICH IS COMPLETELY FORTIFIED BY CURTAIN WALLS. A STEPPED PATH DESCENDING FROM THE RIDGE TOP GATE TO THE BOTTOM GATE IS DEFINED BY BOULDERS. THE ENTIRE AREA, NOW IS OVERGROWN WITH THORN BUSHES AND HIGH CACTUS PLANTS WAS A MILITARY ENTRANCE IN THE PAST. THE RIDGE TOP GATEWAY OPENS ONTO AN ENCLOSED FLAT PLAIN AND APPEARS TO HAVE FUNCTIONED AS A RECEPTION AND/OR MARKET AREA FOR THE TROOPS.

PEOPLE ANEGUNDI LIES NEAR THE BORDER OF ANDHRA PRADESH AND KARNATAKA. THE INHABITANTS SPEAK BOTH TELUGU AND KANNADA. HINDI IS ALSO USED BY SOME FAMILIESWHO HAVE TAKEN BRIDES FROM NORTHERN INDIAN STATES. ACCORDING TO THE POPULATION CENSUS OF 1981 ANEGUNDI HAD A POPULATION OF 3,258. 3500 POPULATION AS PER 2001 CENSUS. IT IS THE SLOWEST POPULATION GROWTH IN THE PAST 3-4 DECADES. IT IS SAID TO REACH 4000 BY 2021. MAJORITY OF THE VILLAGERS ARE HINDU, THOUGH THERE ARE 600 MUSLIMS, AND 8-10 CHRISTIAN FAMILIES. THE HINDU POPULATION OF ANEGUNDI DIVIDES ITSELF INTO FOUR CASTE GROUPS; BRAHMINS (PRIESTS), KSHATRIYAS (WARRIORS), VAISHYS (TRADERS), AND SHUDRAS (WORKERS).

OCCUPATION

SNAKE PRAYER

ANEGUNDI LIES IN A FERTILE WETLANDS AREA. THE MAJORITY OF THE INHABITANTS FOCUS THEIR LIVES AROUNT THE ACTIVITIES OF AGRICULTURE AND ANIMAL HUSBANDRY. FIELDS ARE CULTIVATED FOR SEVER KILOMETRES NORTH AND WEST OF ANEGUNDI, BOTH INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE FORTIFICATIONS. DURING THE VIJAYANAGARA TIMES, LOCAL RULERS DONATED LANDS TO TEMPLES, WHICH ENHANCED THEIR STANDING AND RELIGIOUS MERIT. THE FARMS ON SITE BELONG TO THE DURGA MATHA DEVOSTHALAM. ALL THE VEGETABLES GROWN HERE GO TO THE TEMPLE WHO SERVE 3 MEALS A DAY AS PRASAD. IN 1990, A NET AREA OF 564 HECTARES WAS USED FOR CROPS AND PLANTATIONS, OF WHICH 282 HECTARES WERE IRRIGATED.

STONES OF THE SNAKE GOD, CALLED NAGARA DEVA KALLU, ARE FOUND ALL OVER ANEGUNDI. ONCE A YEAR PEOPLE MAKE A PRAYER TO SUCH STONES, ANOINTING THEM WITH MILK AND TURMERIC. NAGARA CHOWTI IS THE SNAKE FESTIVAL WHEN PEOPLE MAKE PRAYERS ON THE STONES.

5. POPULATION - THE POPULATION OF ANEGUNDI HAS BEEN 3500 FOR THE PAST FOUR DECADES. IT HAS SEEN THE LOWEST POPULATION PROJECTION OF REACHING 4000 TILL 2021. ONE OF THE MAJOR REASONS FOR THIS IS THE LACK OF GOOD EDUCATION ANF FUTURE PROSPECTS FOR THE CHILDREN. THE WOMEN OF THE VILLAGE WORK REALLY HARD IN HOUSE INDUSTRIES TO SEE THEIR MASTER PLAN - 2021 CHILDREN HAVE A BRIGHT FUTURE, BUT WHEN THEY REALISE THAT IT ISNT THEIRFOR IN ANEGUNDI THEY LOCAL PLANNING LEAVE. THE ORIGINAL DESCENDANTS ARE LEAVING THE VILLAGEHAMPI AND THEIR HOUSES ARE AREA BEING CONVERTED INTO HERITAGE GUEST HOUSES. WHILE ARCHITECTURALLY THIS (FINAL) MAY SEEM A GOOD PROSPECT, THE PEOPLE AND CULTURE ARE AS MUCH A PART OF ANEGUNDI INDEX AS THE ARCHITECTURE. BY PROPOSING A SCHOOL HERE, I WISH TO PRESERVE THE LIVE HERITAGE OF THE VILLAGEMain AND SENSITIZE THE PEOPLE TOWARDS NATURE. Parking TO

FIELDS ARE PLOUGHED AND PREPARED IN JULY WHEN THE MONSOON PROPER STARTS, AND SOWING BEGINS IN AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER. THE NEW RAINS WHICH COME IN MARCH AND APRIL ARE VERY LIGHT, AND THE LOWER THE TEMPERATURE, THOUGH THE MONSOON PROPER BEGINS IN JULY. THE COLD SEASON IS BETWEEN NOVEMBER AND JANUARY WHEN NIGHT TIME TEMPERATURES DROP AS LOW AS 10 DEGREES SUMMER GENERALLY LASTS FROM MID FEB TO END OF MAY, WITH TEMPERATURES UP TO 40 DEGREES. THE MONSOON MONTHS OCCUR BETWEEN JUNE AND SEPTEMBER WHEN THERE IS HIGH HUMIDITY. SKIES ARE CLOUDY AND WINDS ARE WESTERLY AND SOUTH-WESTERLY. IN DRY LANDS (MARUBHUMI PRADESHA) CROPS GROWN IN ALTERNATE FIELDS ARE SORGHUM, SPLIT PEAS, AND SUNFLOWERS. IN THE WET LANDS (NIRAVARI PRADESHA) PEOPLE GROW TOMATOES, CUCUMBERS, AND EGG PLANTS. SUGAR CANE IS HARVESTED IN JANUARY. THE CROP TAKES 12 MONTHS TO MATURE, AND THE NEW CROP IS PLANTED IMMEDIATELY. EITHER THE ROOT IS LEFT IN FOR REGROWTH (TWO OR THREE YEARS RUNNING) OR LENGTHS OF 3 SEGMENTS ARE CUT AND PLANTED A WEEK AFTER HARVEST. USUALLY ONCE THE SUGAR CANE CROP IS OVER, BANANAS ARE HARVESTED. PADDY IS GROWN IN SMALL RECTANGULAR, WELL IRRIGATED FIELDS. ALTERNATE FIELDS OF PADDY AND BANANAS ARE ABOUT 60 M WIDE. IN LATE NOVEMBER, RICE IS HARVESTED AND THE STRAW IS USED FOR ANIMAL FODDER. BY EARLY DECEMBER THE PADDY HAS ALL BEEN CUT DOWN. BEFORE CLEARING THE FIELD, PEOPLE COME WITH THE WORKFORCE BEFORE DAWN AND MAKE PRAYERS. THE NEW COMMERCIAL CROP OF RICE IS FAST RIPENING: TAKING ONE MONTH IN THE NURSERY TO GERMINATE, THEN FOUR MONTHS BEFORE HARVESTING. THERE USED TO BE A BELIEF THAT RICE SHOULD RECIEVE THE WINTER DEW, BUT NOW THE CROP IS HARVESTED BEFORE THE WINTER. PREVIOUSLY THE CROP HAD A LONGER SEASON OF AROUND SIX MONTHS. INHABITANTS OF ANEGUNDI ARE PAID IN RICE TO HARVEST CROP, WHERE AS WORKERS FROM SURROUNDING VILLAGES ARE PAID IN CASH. IN 1990, LABOURERS RECIEVED ONE OVAL BASKET PER WEEK FOR 15 DAYS OF HARVEST WORK. ONE HECTARE FIELD WAS PRICED AT 300 RUPEES FOR A WEEK’S WORK OR FOR 15 DAYS. FOR A DAY’S WORK A FARMER RECIEVED 10 KGS OF PADDY. IN 1991, ONE SACK OF RICE EQUALLED THREE OR FOUR DAYS PAY; ALTERNATELY, DAY LABOURERS IN THE FIELD COULD EARN 12 RUPEES. TODAY, THE FARMERS ARE PAID 150 RUPEES FOR A DAY’S WORK WHICH IS GIVEN TO THEM ON A WEEKLY OR MONTHLY BASIS. ALSO, FOOD AND STAY IS PROVIDED

BY THE DEVOSTHALAM. COCONUT PALMS ARE PLANTED IN THE BOUNDARIES BETWEEN THE FIELDS.

ANIMALS ARE USED FOR WORK OR FOR THE RESOURCES THEY PROVIDE. COWS AND BUFFALOS ARE KEPT ON THE FARM OR IN THE FRONT PORTION OF THEIR HOUSE. COWS ARE REVERED AND NEVER EATEN. GOATS, SHEEP, POULTRY AND PONIES ARE ALSO SEEN IN THE AREA. FISH IS CAUGHT FROM THE TUNGABHADRA.

STATE OF KARNATAKA IS LOCATED IN THE SOUTH WESTERN REGION OF INDIA. THE CAPITAL AND LARGEST CITY IN THE STATE IS BANGALORE (370KM FROM ANEGUNDI). KARNATAKA IS BORDERED BY THE ARABIAN SEA ON THE WEST, GOA TO NORTHWEST, TELANGANA TO THE NORTHEAST, ANDRA PRADESH TO THE EAST, TAMIL NADU TO SOUTH EAST, AND KERALA TO THE SOUTH. AS PER 2011 CENSUS, KA HAS LITERACY RATE OF 75.4%. TO MAXIMISE ATTENDANCE IN SCHOOLS, THE KARNATAKA GOV. HAS LAUNCHED A MID-DAY MEAL SCHEME IN IN GOV. AND AIDED SCHOOLS. KN IS FAMOUS FOR ITS HERITAGE AND NATURAL DIVERSITY.

ANEGUNDI IS LOCATED IN NORTHERN PART OF KA. IT WAS PREVIOUSLY CALLED

KISHKINDHA. GANGAVATHI TALUK, KOPPAL DISTRICT. IT ISOLDER THAN HAM- ANEGUNDI FORT OR CORE COMES UNDER ASI AND IS DECLARED A HERITAGE PI AND IS SITUATED ON THE NORTHERN BANK OF THE TUNGABHADRA RIVER. TO SITE. THERE ARE TWO GATES TO THE FORT; NORTH GATE AND SOUTH GATE. BE ABLE TO CONSERVE THE ANCIENT LINEAGE AND HISTORIC SURROUNDINGS, THE SOUTH GATE IS ALSO CALLED TALWAR GATTA WHICH IS FACING THE THE VILLAGERS OF ANEGUNDI MUST BE SELF SUFFICIENT WITH SUSTAINABLE TUNGABHADRA RIVER. THERE ARE CORACLE BOATS AVAILABLE TO FERRY ECONOMIC SUPPORT, THE UNION GOV UNDER ITS RURAL TOURISM SCHEME, ACROSS THE RIVER FOR 20 RS. FORT AREA IS ACCESSED MOSTLY BY CYCLES,

KAMLAPUR IS 5.2 KM FROM THE SOUTH GATE BEYOND THE TUNGABHADRA. THERE IS GOOD CONNECTIVITY WITH PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. KAMPLAPUR CAN BE REACHED BY BUS OR TRAIN. SANAPUR IS 8KM TO THE NORTHWEST AND GANGAVATHI IS 13KM TO THE NORTHEAST. THERE IS ONE ROAD GOING THROUGH THE FORMED A TRUST NAMED KISHKINDHA TO BUILD CAPACITY IN THE VILLAGERS. IT BIKES, AND PEDESTRIANS. THERE IS VEHICLE ACCESS FROM THE NORTH GATE HERITAGE ZONE AND BY 12M BYPASS ROAD WHICH LIES OUTSIDE THE INNER WAS FOUNDED BY SHAMA PAWAR WHO IS LOOKING TO BUILD A SCHOOL IN BUT IS NOT A POPULAR OPTION AS THE BRIDGE TO CROSS TUNGABHADRA FORT WALL ANEGUNDI ALONG THE PRINCIPLES OF SELF SUSTAINANCE AND EMPOWERMENT. IS 30KM FARTHER UP.

EASTERN SIDE OF THE SITE HAS FLAT TERRAIN WHICH MAKES THE SUN DIRECT AND HOT EVEN IN THE MORNING. IT GOES OVER THE HILLOCK BEYOND 3-4 DEPENDING ON THE TIME OF THE YEAR.

ANEGUNDI IS SURROUNDED BY FERTILE FARMLANDS AND GIANT GRANITE BOULDERS. THE SITE LIES ON THE BYPASS ROAD, OUTSIDE THE HERITAGE ZONE. TUNGABHADRA CAN BE ACCESSED THROUGH THE SITE OVER THE HILLOCK.

PRIMARY WIND DIRECTION IS FROM THE WEST SIDE OVER THE HILLOCK. THERE ARE AVERAGE RAINFALL A YEAR IS 777MM. MONSOON SEASON IS DURING TWO VALLEYS WHICH BECOME CRITICAL WIND PRESSURE AREAS. SECONDARY JUNE-SEPTEMBER BUT SOMETIMES EXTENDS FROM MAY-OCTOBER. DIRECTION IS FROM THE EAST SIDE.

BOULDER EDGE RIVER EDGE ROAD EDGE HIGHEST POINT ON SITE BUILDABLE ROCKY EDGE VIEW POINTS ON SITE

THE SITE IS PRIMARILY ACCESSED BY THE 12M WIDE ROAD ON THE EAST SIDE BEYOND WHICH LIES CORE ANEGUNDI. THE INTERMEDIATE FLAT TERRAIN MAKES THE SITE VISIBLE FROM THE VILLAGE. BEYOND THE HILLOCK ON THE NORTH SIDE LIES FARM LANDS. BEYOND THE HILLOCK ON THE SOUTH SIDE IS A SMALL SETTLEMENT. THE FARMERS LIVE THERE. THERE IS ANOTHER SMALLER ACCESS FROM THE NORTHWEST SIDE BEYOND THE DURGA MATA TEMPLE. THE SAME ROUTE ALSO ACCESS THE MILITARY BARRACKS AND ELEPHANT STABLES ON THE SAME SIDE. THERE IS RESTORATION WORK ON IT. BEYOND THE SOUTH WEST HILLOCK LIES THE TUNGABHADRA RIVER.

THERE ARE 3 PATCHES OF FERTILE FARMLANDS ON SITE. COCONUT TREES LINE THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THERE ARE SHRUBS AND CACTI GROW ALONG AND ON THE BOULDERS.

THE HILLOCK TO THE SW SIDE IS THE MAIN VIEW TO THE SITE WHICH IS VISIBLE FROM THE ROAD AND THE VILLAGE. THERE ARE TWO PRIMARY VANTAGE POINTS ON SITE, ONE LOOKS OVER THE SUN RISE. THE OTHER IS TO THE W OF THE HILLOCK WHICH HAS A VIEW OF THE RIVER AND ANJANADRI PARBAT BEYOND AT A DISTANCE

THERE ARE 4 HERITAGE STRUCTURES ON SITE. 1) AN ABANDONED TEMLE RESTS ON A GIANT ROCK SURFACE WHICH HAS BEEN FALLEN PREY TO VANDALISM. 2)BROKEN FORT WALL. 3) WATCH TOWER. 4) 2 STRUCTURES AND OVERGROWN STEPS GOING DOWN TO THE RIVER. THESE WILL BE MAINTAINED BY THE SCHOOL.

THERE IS A WATER BODY FORMED DUE TO COLLECTION OF WATER IN A ROCK DITCH AND LATER HAS BEEN DAMMED TO PREVENT FLOODS ON THE FARM LAND. THE WATER BODY WILL BE RETAINED AND CONVERTE`D TO A SWIMMING POND WITH THE NATURAL EDGE. ACCESS TO TUNGABHADRA IS TO THE SW SIDE.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ROCKY UNBUILDABLE AREA TO FLAT BUILDABLE AREA

THE SITE IS ABUTTED BY ROCKY RIDGE LINE ON 3 SIDES, N,S, AND W. EAST SIDE IS ABUTTED BY THE ROAD. THE BASE OF THESE HILLOCKS HAVE A GRADUAL SLOPE AND A DEFINITY ROCK LINE. THIS MAKES THIS EDGE BUILDABLE, WHICH IN TURN ALLOWS THE FLAT LAND TO BE RETAINED FOR FARMING AND PLAYING ACTIVITIES. THE HIGHEST POINT OF THE SITE IS TO THE SOUTH WEST SIDE WHICH CAN BE USED TO ORIENT THE STRUCTURES AND ADDS ADVANTAGE IN PROVIDING SHADE TO THE FLATTER AREAS DURING THE HOT LATE AFTERNOONS.THERE IS AN ENCLOSED FLAT AREA AMIDST THE BOULDERS ON THE N SIDE ACCESSED FROM UNDER A GIANT OVERHANGING ROCK. THIS CAN BE USED AS CHILDRENS PERSON PLAY SPACE AND CAN BE CONVERTED TO A SAND PIT AND ROCKCLIMBING AREA.

RELIEF MAP SHOWING THE HIGHEST POINT ON SITE AND THE LOWEST. THE SLOPED PART OF THE SITE IT NOT BUILDABLE DUE TO THE BOULDERS. THE BUILDABLE REGION COVERS 2 LEVELS. LOWEST CONTOUR LINE IS AT 408 AND HIGHEST IS AT 434M WITH 26M INBETWEEN.

THE VALLEY BESIDE THE HIGHEST POINT IS A CRITICAL POINT TO FOR HIGH PRESSURE WIND. ALSO THE NE SIDE OF THE HILLOCK BECOME SHADED DURING LATE AFTERNOONS.

THE BOULDER STREWN LANDSCAPE IS ONE OF THE OLDEST EXPOSED SURFACES ON EARTH. UNLIKE MOST OF THE MOUNTAIN RAINGES, THE BOULDER HEAPS Anegundi WERE NOT FORMED AS A RESULT OF VOLCANISMS OR OF ANY UPLIFT IN THE EARTH’S CRUST. THE BOULDERS WERE ONCE PART OF GIGANTIC GRANITE MONOLITHS. THE NATURAL FORCES OF SUN, WIND, RAIN AND STORM ERODED THE GRANITE OVER 3-3.5 BILLIONS YEARS.

THE RIDGE LINES ARE NOT WELL DEFINED AS THERE ARE MANY GAPS INBETWEEN THE LARGE BOULDERS.

AS THE SCHOOL PREMISES AND CLASSROOMS REQUIRE LARGE OUTDOOR SPACES, IT IS LOCATED ON THE FLAT AREA AWAY FROM THE FARMS. THE MAIN MOTIVE WAS TO RETAIN THE FARMS AND THE NATURAL FEATURES. ALSO TO USE THE ROCK EDGELINE TO DEFINE THE GEOMETRY OF THE STRUCTURE. THE HISHEST ROCK EVOLVED A LINEAR; ALIGNED GEOMETRY TO THE SCHOOL BUILDING AND CONNECTING THE TWO EXTREME PARTS OF SITE WITH THE SAME. RESIDENTIAL IS LOCATED ALONG THE BASE OF THE HILLOCK NEAR THE FARMS AS IT IS A NIGHT ACTIVITY AND DOES NOT REQUIRE LARGE OPEN SPACE. MOREOVER, THE RESIDENTS ACCESS THE SCHOOL VIA THE FARMS FACILITATING ENGAGEMENT. PARKING AREA ARE RESTRICTED TOWARDS THE BEGINING OF THE SITE. THE REST OF THE SITE IS PEDESTRIAN, OR CYCLE. THERE IS A SCHOOL GOLF CAR AVAILABLE INCASE OF EMERGENCIES OR SENIOR FACULTY TRANSPORT. COWS GRAZING AREA IS LOCATED NEAR THE FARM AND CAFETERIA SO AS TO COMPOST FOOD PARTICLES OR FEED IT TO THE COWS. PUBLIC ACCESS IS RESTRICTED TILL THE ADMIN. PLAYING GROUNDS ARE LOCATED NEAR THE NORTH CORNER OF THE SITE NEAR THE CHILDRENS PRIVATE PLAYING ENCLOSER. ALSO CLOSER TO PUBLIC AREA IN CASE OF SPECTATORS.

BY WEEDS AND LIE IN RUINS

VIEW OF THE SUN RISE FROM THE HILLOCK/BROKEN FORT WALL AT 6 AM. SUN RAYS ARE HARSH BEYOND 9 AM IN WARMER WEATHER

VIEW OF THE OF THE FARMS BELOW. THIS IS A CRITICAL POINT FOR WIND PRESSURE AS IT IS A VALLEY IMMEDIATLY NEXT TO HIGH ROCK LEDGES. ALSO IT IS A PASSAGE CONNECTING BETWEEN TWO REGIONS.

VIEW OF THE TEMPLE IN RUINS. THIS ISNT UNDER THE ASI AND HAS FALLEN PREY TO VANDALISM AND IS IN POOR CONDITIONS.

WATER BODY AT THE BASE OF THE TEMPLE.. IT HAS A NATURAL EDGE OF ROCK WHICH WILL BE RETAINED. THE WATER BODY WILL BE CONVERTED INTO A SWIMMING POND.

GIANT MONOLITHIC ROCK PRESENT IN THE NATURAL ENCLOSURE IN THE NORTHEAST PART OF THE SITE. LOOKS LIKE A SLEEPING WHALE. CAN BE USED FOR ROCK CLIMBING WITH THE BASE BURRIED IN SAND

VIEW OF THE WATCH TOWER LOCATED ON THE RIDGE LINE OF THE SITE. IT WILL REMAIN AS IS AND MAINTAINED BY THE SCHOOL

SWOT ANALYSIS : STRENGTH

WEAKNESS

1. THE IMMACTFUL YEARS OF A CHILD ARE EMMERSED AMIDST NATURE 2. MAKES THEM MORE SENSITIVE OF IT AND LEARNING TO LIVE IN HARMONY; COEXIST. 3. SECLUDED FROM THE COMMERCIAL URBAN ENVIRONMENT THE CHILD CAN TRULY FOCUS ON THE INNER SELF. 4. RESIDING AND LEARNING IN AN ENVIRONMENT THAT EXISTED IN THE VERY STORIES THEY WILL BE LEARNING AT THE SCHOOL WILL MAKE THEM APPRECIATE THE CURRICULAR AT A FAR DEEPER LEVEL BY EXPERIENCING THE SITE. 5. THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT ALLOWS FOR A SPECTRA OF OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES WHICH RENDER TO A WELL ROUNDED GROWTH OF THE CHILD. 6. SENSITIVITY TOWARDS CULTURE. 7. COMMUNITY LIVING 8. CLEANER AND HEALTHIER NATURAL ENVIRONMENT WITHOUT POLUTION.

1. CHILDREN WHO MIGHT GROW UP IN SUCH AN ENVIRONMENT MIGHT HAVE A DIFFICULT TIME ADJUSTING TO THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT LATER IN THEIR LIFE. 2. EVEN THE CLOSEST MAJOR HOSPITAL IS VERY FAR, SO IT WILL BE DIFFICULT IN CASE OF EMERGENCY SITUATIONS. 3. TEACHERS FROM THE VILLAGE HAVE THEMSELVES NOT HAD ADEQUATE EDUCATION TO TEACH SO FIRST THEY WILL BE NEED TO TRAINED. 4. PROPER ASSESSMENT METHODS MUST BE DERIVED THAT ENABLE CHILD CENTRIC GROWTH OVER A STANDARDIZED MARK SHEET.

OPPORTUNITIES

THREATS

1. GROWTH OF THE COMMUNITY INCLUSIVELY WITH THE SCHOOL 2. EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE MEMBERS OF COMMUNITY. 3. SPREADING OF GLOBAL AWARENESS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. 4. STRENGTHEN CULTURAL SPIRIT WITHIN THE COMMUNITY. 5. TEACHING CHILDREN FARMING METHODS 6. FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION 7. LEARNING OF AGE OLD CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES. 8. GUIDED GROWTH OF THE VILLAGE. 9. SPREADING ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS 10. INNOVATION WITH LOCAL CRAFT AND SELLING ONLINE. EMPOWERING THE COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITH THE SAME.

1. EROSION OF THE BOULDERS DUE TO EXTENSIVE HUMAN INTERVENTION. 2. CONSTRUCTING THIS CLOSE TO THE BOULDERS MIGHT OPEN UP THE DOOR TO PEOPLE WHO MIGHT RUTHLESSLY BEGIN CONSTRUCTION WITHOUT BEING SENSITIVE TOWARDS THE BOULDERS. 3. EXTENSIVE AFFECT ON THE WILDLIFE. 4. INTOLERABLE HEAT RADIATION FROM THE MASSIVE GRANITE BOULDERS. 5. EARTHQUAKE OR A SERIOUS STORM MIGHT BE DISASTEROUS DESPITE TAKING NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS. 6. HARM THAT MAY HAVE COME FROM THE WILDLIFE.
