The whole week sky was filled with nimbus clouds, threatening to rain!
Service
4th July 14: Krystal Sung an LC student visited the school to meet the students and spend two days on the campus raising awareness for water preservation. We are extremely thankful to her for raising $4000 to help the school install an RO plant under her Girl Scout Gold Award project. During her stay she interacted with the students to brief students about her project and how she has been successful. She organized activities in Junior School. |
| Thank you Krystal for the gift of the RO Plant |
Krystal did a session on water with the students of the Eco Club and inspired them to take up social work in rural area to help people live better lives. Krystal and her father visited the forest with Class XII students to see the water reservoir which is filled with the water now. It is indeed our pleasure to thank Krystal for the work she has done for us. We wish her good luck for her future and hope she gets a gold medal soon.
Mr. Sung, Krystal’s father took up a session each with Class XI and XII to throw light on avenues open for students in Geology. He himself is a geologist and wished our students could take up this as a profession. He was of the opinion that this is one way in which you know your country best. With commerce students he spoke of the big time money that they can make if they take up a profession in geology.
Skills
It was a huge surprise to see a lone tortoise roaming freely on the campus. He had to sadly return to his home in the jungle as all students were inquisitive to take a peek at its head and movement. Students could then watch it trudge back to its home!22nd July 14: New Editorial Board
