Student Testimonials

I didn’t know how to operate computer in my previous school though we had a Computer lab. I joined this school in Class 7. Now I got an opportunity to learn about computers and also to do practicals. When I entered the lab, I was surprised to see the setup. It gives the experience of a corporate office. Now I am able to work on the computer. I learnt drawing in MS Paint. I did basic arithmetic calculations using MS Excel. And also, I did many projects using the internet for different subjects. Thank you for giving me this golden opportunity.
