The Summer Camp served as an excellent platform for children to channel their energy into meaningful and enriching experiences. It contributed significantly to building stamina, enhancing confidence, and fostering strong bonds with both teachers and peers. A variety of activities, including Mallakhamb, gymnastics, art and craft, as well as speech and drama, played a vital role in nurturing their self-esteem and aesthetic sensibilities.

The camp culminated in a grand closing ceremony, where students were awarded certificates in recognition of their successful participation. It was a proud and joyous occasion for parents, who had the opportunity to witness their children perform and showcase their learning.

We look forward to organizing many more such engaging and enriching camps in the future.
