As part of their Unit 6 topic, “கீழடி அகழ்வாராய்ச்சி”, Grade 6 students participated in a debate on whether life flourished more in the olden ages or the present. The discussion was rooted in their study of the ancient civilization uncovered at Keeladi, offering a perfect opportunity to compare the simplicity and achievements of the past with the present advancements.
The team favoring the olden ages highlighted how civilizations thrived with sustainable practices, deep cultural roots, and strong community connections. The opposing team passionately defended the modern era, celebrating the benefits of technological innovations, improved healthcare, and global connectivity.
The debate ended with the realization that both eras have their strengths and lessons to offer. The students concluded that the insights from Keeladi’s rich heritage could inspire modern life to be more sustainable and culturally enriched while embracing the advantages of the present.
