Team Building Workshop at St. Xavier's Villa, Khandala
20-June-2026
Life Learnings grounded in the Outdoors
XIC students visit the St. Xavier's College Villa, Khandala, for the team-building workshop. JR student, Anisha Sharma recounts the program.
Sometimes, all it takes is a day away from the hustle and bustle to realise how much joy there is to be away from the city.
As a student of Journalism and Media Convergence at XIC, I had the opportunity to go on a one day trip to Khandala with my batchmates. It started with a fun outing but soon turned into an amazing learning experience. Surrounded by nature we spent the day participating in valuable games and activities organised by a team of safety experts from Outdoor Mantra. Through these games and team activities we learned the importance of trust, team bonding, communication and how to adjust with everyone.
It basically helped us to strengthen our bonds and get to know each other outside the classrooms, appreciate the value of patience and show our true self.
The main focus of this trip was to know how the real world works and where understanding people and working together matters.
The trip also helped me understand that there is a world outside our phone screens, how important it is to spend time outdoors, connecting with classmates and just being in the present. It was truly a special moment filled with laughter and learning.
