When we were in school we had lot of school events one or other we were excited always to know when and what is next? but now it is missing. May be everyone wants easy and relaxing life. Due to which our new generation is not interested in any other activities than the Mobile and Internet. I think the school management should think about it more seriously.
JULIANA, MOODUBELLE Thu, October-31-2013, 2:16
PRINCIPLE, WE NEED MORE ACTIVITIES TO OUR SCHOOL CHILDREN S. THIS ACTIVITY WILL NOT HELP ALL OUR SCHOOL STUDENTS BUT ONLY PARTICULARLY 5 OR 10 STUDENTS WHO ARE REGISTERED. TRY TO HAVE MORE INTER-COLLEGE LEVEL EVENTS TO THE ALL STUDENTS TO KEEP THEM BUSY AND FOCUSED. THAT WILL SURELY HELP THE STUDENTS TO UNDERSTAND AND LEARN FASTER. ONLY HAVING CURRICULUM WILL NOT HELP STUDENTS.

All the very best to the Management, Teachers and students of St.Lawrence PU College in organizing state level NSS camp. Its a right oppurtunity to showcase our potential.
