They were forthcoming to share thoughts about their hobbies and eager to know about the hobbies of their friends as well.

While a few bonded over their love for similar models of cars, a few others shared their experience in gardening. Most of them were ready with props, due credit must be given to our ever enthusiastic parent fraternity who always volunteer to support the hobbies of their children. It was delightful to see our students speaking confidently and encouraging their peers.
