Project description

Minor projects are aimed at reducing noise levels in the school during brakes. Students are being offered various activities to focus their attention and energy into positive actions that will not only help reduce noise in the school, but also promote various educational goals, such as healthy diet, reading, learning, showcasing and celebrating their talents, etc. An activity is also offered for teachers to promote better communication and socialising, hence improving interpersonal relationships. The goal is to make the school more fun, interesting, but still a house of knowledge and good relationships.
