This will benefit them to choose what they like and to be able to discover and develop their talents to the maximum.”

Romero D’Souza. Then each staff explained to the parents regarding the progress of the child in each sector: education, counselling, health and hygiene, etc which concluded with the announcement of the holiday time table planned for the children by the Prefect.

We are not able to provide them good environment to grow but with your love, care and support We have seen the changes brought in the children.” shared one of the parent.
