Learning skills: The best foot forward!

For children like M. Sumalatha of a city Corporation School, the 24th summer camp on Gandhi Museum premises is a boon. Sessions on communication skills, drawing and painting are among the 28 courses offered at the camp. Many children like Sumalatha said they chose to attend the camp to learn spoken English. The course initiated beginners into spoken English, corrected their grammar structures, built confidence, and enhanced fluency in English.

In all, 2,042 students had registered for the camp in which Silambam, gymnastics, art and crafts, tailoring, chess and karate are also being taught.
