| A huge spacious compound with plantations
has also been provided for creating a healthy and green
environment for the school. |
|
| A building devoted to the girl’s
Primary School, that is situated in the vicinity of Taluka
Shala, was very old and in a dilapidated condition. The
Trust is demolishing the same and reconstructing with
spacious ventilated rooms and separate sanitary blocks
for the girl’s 'Kanyashala'. Besides, SSAT have
set a target for constructing a minimum of 111 school
buildings in Gujarat. |
|
| SSAT also proposes to help in the construction
of Mahila College (Ladies only) at Gondal. This is being
negotiated with the municipality at Gondal for allotment
of land for the college and with the Govt. of Gujarat
for permission, simultaneously. |
|
| The SSAT have already constructed one
residential hostel for girls at Amreli. This hostel has
a capacity of accommodating 150 girls. At present, about
100 girls are enjoying the pleasant environment of the
hostel and pursuing higher education through every modern
facility such as a library, science room, etc. |
|
| The SSAT had spent a sizeable amount in
the construction of a Law College at Gondal in 1989. The
city of Gondal already had the facility for Arts and Commerce
faculties for University education. The SSAT provided
them with one more faculty of Law College which is recognised
by Saurashtra University. |
|
| This Law College known as Smt. S. S..Ajmera
Law College has 150 students under its wing who are completing
their law education at different levels. |
|
| Exploring beyond the realms of Science
education, SSAT has ventured into areas such as the universe
and astronomy. In collaboration with Rajkot Municipal
Corporation, SSAT have constructed a planetarium with
ultra-modern light & sound equipments, specially imported
from Germany. SSAT’s valuable contribution is estimated
to be Rs. 65 lakhs for this project. |
|
| The planetarium is located in a prominent
place of the Race Course at Rajkot. Thousands of school
students from Rajkot and all over Gujarat are visiting
this planetarium every month to further their knowledge
about space. |
|
| Every year, the Trust also provides eligible
students with requisite study materials at subsidized
rates and sometimes, free of cost, in case of deserving
students. |
|
| The SSAT also provides a helping hand
to brilliant students in terms of offering them scholarships
to pursue higher education, without overlooking any technical
and humanitarian aspects. |
