According to 2011 census Okhaldunga’s population is 9.5% below the age of 5 years, and 26.1% between 5 to 14 years.
Considering this data, it is but natural for the CLC to have a Children Centre that promotes Children’s Development through interactive and engaging activities.
The Children Center attempts to make learning fun for children. It will cater to children under the age of 8. There are children’s books, games, coloring books, crayons available which will help kids with learning and exploring their own intellect and creativity. Children from various schools can use the center and the neighbouring schools can book their timings with the manager to access the Children Centre.
