I have walked past DS school in my neighbourhood a number of times and never bothered to turn around and give it another look. It was a good school which in need for urgent repairs. Unfortunately, lack of funds meant that this could not be done. But last week, as I was walking past the school, I came to a halt. I stood there for a moment, staring and then whipped out my phone to start clicking photographs. The place had transformed!
It had a new paint job and cute little cartoons adorned its walls. The school management had come together and had raised funds through various events to give the generation next a better future with world class amenities. And they have done a fine job I must say!
Vikram Bawa, who is a fashion photographer has chipped in, too. He is planning to conduct workshops for the children and will be gifting a few photographs to the school to raise funds! Isn’t that wonderful? J
I wish DS school all the best!
We remember the day seven years back when were travelling in a Mumbai local trying hard to come up with a name for our blog when struck us; Khushboo was always called a Jack of all Trades. The name stuck (with a slight modification, of course) and Munni was born.
Six years, over 100 collaborations, lakhs of readers and several awards later; our love for blogging continues to grow. We continue to write on an eclectic range of topics from the funniest autorickshaw signs that we have spotted in Mumbai to how to bathe an elephant. We are true blue Munni of all Trades and we hope to continue on this joyride with our fellow Munnis and Munnas.
So beautiful

Beautiful walls! Great project!
Very nice to get kids involved in artwork like this for the community. It will have to be updated time and again though when the colors start getting faded or the walls are getting dirty.
They are very pretty! I love mural paintings like this! Great job! It adds colours and create a good atmosphere! Good job!
Nice drawing.. I like the painting shown! Pretty pretty!
These paintings look quite good. Glad that kids are involved in this
Very pleasing to the eyes. 🙂 Keep it up.
What a lovely post. Beautiful photos too ?
Glad to have new environment for DS school. It's a must for schools to beautify the surroundings and classroom, so that students can study well. Another thing is the education standard and student's equipment.
This really livens up the neighborhood. This would sure generate positive aura for the students.
Sometimes, I hope they will repaint the walls blank every 1-2 years so that everyone get to contribute and change the neighbourhood for a new look every few years! IT WILL BE SO FUN!
Amazing wall art! I'm sure kids will really love this one! 😀
this is just really cute and friendly looking murals that will make kids wanna go to school 🙂
It's nice to know that there are people helping a school raise funds for its development. It simply shows how unity can overcome any financial problem 🙂
Love the oceanic part of the wall. 🙂
It is amazing what a little attention and love can do for a place. It looks great and so lively! I a sure the kids love it!
oh wow! Looked amazing! I wish my neighborhood got that sense of style haha
What a beautiful post and a gorgeous project. The finished work proves that people love to encouraged to do good in their neighborhood. This just shows the joy that comes with encouragement.
Oh those painting did brighten up the walls! Must be really nice walking past them!
What beautiful murals! We have thoe in our school too and I helped painted one of them.
Providing class amenities to students is a duty of every headmaster, unfortunately some fail to do so. You are lucky the school supplies many commodities such as art paintings on the walls. They are so beautiful and creative, very challenging to the imagination.
