All were eager, enthusiastic, and determined to explore various possibilities in conducting various projects, by surfing the net, reading various books, interacting with different people from local and abroad etc. The various activities like assemblies, field trips, exhibition, preparation of charts and models, skits, songs and power-point presentations enthused everyone and gave a taste and feeling of internationalism experienced in our classrooms and school.
