Conclusion :

The school over the years endeavored to mould the children to shine both in sports and studies. We encourage spiritual values to be a part of education in school, because we believe a child will learn better only if he/she is explained the purpose of spirituality in life. Spiritual growth is developed through regular prayers, catechism, holy mass and moral studies. This year has been no different from the yesteryears. The teachers, under the guidance of the management have worked tirelessly to create leaders of tomorrow. At this juncture, I would like to thank everyone for their indefinite support they rendered on us. To cap it all, I thank the Almighty God for His continuous protection over us each and every moment of the day and all through the year. I would like to end the Report with the following quote,


"Stay Focused, go
After your dreams
And keep moving towards your goal"

Thank you one and all.
