Abstract
When Tagore was asked why he started a school,
he responded by saying that he had such
miserable memories of his own brief encounters
with schooling where he was confined to a room
with rows of benches, bare walls and high
windows, that he longed to give children an
i
experience of freedom and nature . Schools are
often restricted spaces both physically and
mentally with little to stimulate the imagination or
challenge the body to movement. The world of
home and the village are usually in sharp contrast
to the often enclosed, crowded and unfriendly
space of the classroom.
