The Medco schools are celebrating their15th anni­versary this year. All  have joined together to organize different academic and extra-curricular activities.

This school had the responsibility to hold  literary activities, and initiated  quiz, debate and elocution contests and also an essay writing competition.

Yalini Yallappa, an English teacher  also responsible for the extra-curricular activities, points out that the school is like a nursery for pupils. She says “ all are not blessed with good academic skills, but are gifted with some other talents. Two pupils have shown exceptional talent and skill at addressing the audience.”

 Ivans Vert and Mohammad Nadir Bhollah of Form V are the winners of the debate and elocution contests.

They share that it would have been a difficult task without the support and help of the teachers. “Our teachers not only polished and groomed us, but also made us feel confident. Moreover, our teachers recognize and believe even in the little things we are capable of doing,” they say.

To this, Nalini adds : “On discovering their talents, it is our duty to groom them and also show them further avenues for the future. We are also starting a music club next year. The materials and equipment have already been purchased. We are launching this because  many students after leaving us, find jobs in  the hotel sector. The hotel sector is very demanding with good scope for employment. The music clubs will better prepare them for jobs in this field.”
