The LTV get-together for the month of July has been organized in Mysore on 16th and 17th 2015 in Arivu trust. Arivu is an innovative school based in Mysore. At Arivu learning is activity based, collaborative and relevant to everyday life. Education is not limited to classroom and knowledge is not limited to books. There were three volunteers and four FSL-India staff members participated in the get together.

On First day we have started Get together with self-introduction of each other and then we all went to Arivu School, there children have performed dance, Tabla playing, sang songs and classic music to the international volunteers.
