In today’s era, education is not only confined to reading and writing. It is now linked to the holistic development of the children. In partnership with Atal Tinkering Labs (ATL) a sub-mission under the Atal Innovation Mission of the Government of India, Mount Zion International School organised a one day ‘ATAL LAB TRAINING & SCIENCE EXPO’. This flagship initiative of AIM, the Government of India, is to nurture an innovative mind set amongst high school students across the length and breadth of India.
Dr. Jonathan P. Jayabarathan, Chairman, Mount Zion Schools was the chief guest, and in his address he welcomed the gathering and motivated the students. Dr. Jalaja Kumari, Principal, Mount Zion International School also felicitated the students. 187 students and 8 teachers from Ramanathan Chetiyar Higher Secondary, Nachanduppatti, Govt. High School, Namanasamudram, Govt. High School Lembalakudi, Govt Middle School, Pilivalam were invited to this expo. Students of Mount Zion International School presented 25 projects. The students participated with great enthusiasm and explained the projects in detail. This program inspired, encouraged and motivated the budding scientists. It was wonderful to watch the students presenting various projects. These projects also broadened our knowledge that science offers answers to various questions we ask out of curiosity and we need to understand the importance of science. The guest students had an opportunity to explore and learn new ideas in the field of Science and Technology.
