To promote this craft making, BPPM initiated and engaged the students into a beautiful amazing card contest.
Students were given a set criteria to work on. Where they were supposed to design a 3d unique birthday card for the 47th birthday of BSS. It was heartening to see their response as they participated enthusiastically and came up with fantastic pieces of craft.
They used multiple ways to make the card interesting and eye catchy. All the cards were displayed in a special morning assembly. Where in a special announcement the best cards were awarded with the Certificates of Honour. Students from lower primary, upper primary and middle school received their token of appreciation from HMI Ms. Saima Faheem. She appreciated the young talent!!!!!
