HOW WE DELIVER OUTCOMES


DAY 1

UDUPI – MALPE – MANGALORE - | 2 NIGHTS | 3 DAYS |

LIVING KARNATAKA

Understanding the connections between the Human Body, Environment, Community & Heritage


DAY 01: BENGALURU → UDUPI → MANIPAL → MALPE

From the Human Body to the Living Coast

04:00 AM – Reporting at School


04:30 AM – Departure from School


07:30 AM – Breakfast En Route

03:30 PM – Manipal Museum of Anatomy & Pathology

“Where the human body becomes a map of structure, function and life.”

Students step into the world of medical science through an encounter with real anatomical specimens and representations of pathological change.

The experience brings the complexity of the human body into a tangible setting—moving beyond diagrams and textbook illustrations to observe how organs, structures and systems are connected.


04:30 PM – Malpe Beach

“Where land meets sea, and every wave reveals a relationship.”

The journey continues from the human body to one of nature's most dynamic systems.

At Malpe, students encounter the meeting point of land, sea, climate and human life. The coastline offers a visible example of constant interaction—waves shape the shore, the shore influences human activity, and coastal communities develop livelihoods around the sea.


06:30 PM – Return to Hotel


08:00 PM – Dinner


10:00 PM – Night Halt at Udupi


DAY 2

10:30 AM – Pilikula Nisargadhama

“A living landscape where nature, culture and community share the same space.”

Pilikula brings together dimensions of biodiversity, traditional life and cultural heritage.

Rather than viewing nature and culture as separate worlds, the experience presents them as interconnected. The traditional environment of the region reflects how communities have historically responded to their surroundings, used local resources and developed distinctive ways of life.


11:30 AM – Departure towards Manasa Water Park


12:30 PM – Arrival & Lunch @ Manasa Water Park


01:30 PM – Manasa Water Park

“Experience, interaction and shared moments turn a journey into memory.”

The afternoon offers a change of rhythm.

Students enjoy the water-based attractions, rides, wave pool and slides in a supervised setting. After the concentrated experiences of the morning, this provides space for recreation, peer interaction and shared enjoyment.

The original programme retains the supervised recreational component at Manasa Water Park.

03:30 PM – Hoysaleswara Temple, Halebidu

“Where stone becomes sculpture, geometry becomes architecture, and history becomes a story.”

The journey reaches its cultural crescendo at Hoysaleswara Temple.

Here, students encounter an extraordinary visual record carved into stone—architectural symmetry, sculptural detail, mythology, animals, society and representations of everyday life.

The temple demonstrates how multiple forms of knowledge can coexist within one creation. History is embedded in the sculpture. Geometry is embedded in the design. Art carries stories. Architecture expresses ideas.


04:30 PM – Departure towards Bengaluru


07:30 PM – Hearty Snacks & Juice En Route


09:30 PM – Arrival at School

The programme concludes with attendance and safe dispersal.


LEARNING OUTCOMES

By the end of the journey, students will be able to:

1. RECOGNISE CONNECTIONS
Identify how systems—biological, environmental, social and cultural—function through relationships rather than in isolation.

2. OBSERVE BEYOND THE OBVIOUS
Use direct observation to interpret real-world environments, specimens, landscapes, cultural spaces and architectural forms.

3. CONNECT CLASSROOM KNOWLEDGE TO REALITY
Relate concepts from science, geography, environmental studies, history, art and mathematics to authentic field experiences.

4. INTERPRET PLACE
Understand how geography, natural resources and environmental conditions influence the development of communities and their cultural practices.

5. READ CULTURE THROUGH EVIDENCE
Interpret food, traditional practices, architecture and sculpture as evidence of the knowledge and values of a society.

6. SEE HERITAGE AS KNOWLEDGE
Recognise monuments not merely as historic structures, but as repositories of artistic, mathematical, technological and cultural knowledge.

7. DEVELOP SYSTEMS THINKING
Move from observing individual elements to understanding the relationships between people, place, environment, knowledge and culture.

8. COMMUNICATE MEANINGFUL OBSERVATIONS
Return from the journey with experiences that can be articulated, discussed and connected to academic contexts.
