The Star of the Quarter award, as part of our School Development project at PCKG School, Kodambakkam was presented to students who scored well on studies, attendance and overall discipline. The award is presented every quarter of the year. In the picture, Shri. Ravi, Trustee of Kalanjiyam Trust and Mr. Sakthivel, Headmaster of the school presents the award to a student..
Computers (pre-owned) under RCMS - Ford Digital Literacy Project was provided to two schools, Bees's school, Thiruvallur and Arignar Anna Middle school. These schools didn't have a single computer, and this project opens up the computer dreams of the students of these schools. The project was done in coordination with SMCA Charitable Trust of which Rtn. P Bowmick is a member.
Our Club organised an opthalmic (eye) check up for the students of St. Anthony's School, Egmore on 28 November 2023. In the day long camp organised in association with Udhi Eye Clinic, specialised doctors inspected the vision health of the students of the school, and prescribed treatment and spectacles for those who required.
