Leave of Absence

Fellow SMK volunteers,

I am out of town for a week which incidentally includes two weekends, one on each side of the week :). So, I will not be able to come for classes. Hopefully, I will be back in action on 27th Feb.

Meanwhile, Dale and Amit are going to make sure (a little pressure tactic here) that SMK takes part in the Environmental Awareness Painting competition and WINS. Looking at their paintings last week, I think they are sure to win. If they don't I am going to put it on you two ;)

A little non serious post with uncharacteristic presence of smileys. I think, just the whiff of vacation is enough to have this effect on people. Good luck then.

Re: Fresh Blood in the system

So, we have yet another new volunteer for SMK. At this rate I think we will soon be running a 'fresh blood' bank ;)

Please welcome the latest addition to SMK family - Dale, who was the driving force behind the painting competition that I talked about in my previous entry. We wish her a long and exciting tenure with SMK.

Run up to Painting Competition

YFS is organizing a Bangalore wide painting competition to generate environmental awareness. The idea is to select 5 students from each school and have them participate in an event where all the schools come together. At SMK, we selected a group of 20 students from 5th, 6th and 7th standard and held a drawing competition. The best five will be sent for the final competition. Here is a glimpse of it.
