STANDARD II FIELD TRIP

The students of Standard II went for their educational trip to Sanjay Gandhi National Park Borivili on Saturday, 10th March 2012.

They were excited to see the lions with their cubs and the white tigers and the deers.

It was a wonderful learning experience to see the animals in the wild.

Thanks to Miss Mary D'Souza, Miss Soumya Khosla and some of the parents who accompanied the children to the park.
