PAPER BAG MAKING WORKSHOP

PAPER BAG-MAKING WORKSHOP HELD

Workshop to introduce a Socially Useful and Productive Work (SUPW) to B.Ed English students was held on 20th June, Friday. The workshop was led by Mr. Suresh Kumar, faculty, NSS  Training College.
The raw materials used for making the product were newspapers/chart, gum, hard board and paper bag tag.

"This is an eco-friendly product that is very useful in day to day life. A paper bag made out of even a sheet of newspaper could easily carry, upto two kilograms of weight." Said Mr. Suresh during the workshop.
" I feel it is a very useful and easy-to-make product which I think we could also teach our students to make." Says Gopika. G, a B. Ed English student.
Meera Gopinathan, another B.Ed English student says that she is all set to explore the commercial potentialities of the product. " I feel it is not utilised as much as it should be. It has huge commercial scope, I believe."
A question-answer session was also held as part of the workshop.
