CAS trip- Savarkundla
We all visited a village, Savarkundla as a part of our CAS. We were in Savarkundla for 3 days.

Savarkundla Trip
We went to a small town called Savarkundla for one of our CAS projects. Savarkundla is a very small jungle like place where there are a lot of natural wells. One of the major problems there was that the animals in the jungle used to fall down into these wells. So our main aim was […]
