Rural students’ project gets selected for National Science Congress
23rd December 2009
This year, three Std. 7 students of a remote village, Dadhre, (in Wada taluka) worked on a Science Project for the Children’s Science Congress. The subject was “Energy-Efficient Lamps for Conservation of Energy”. The project was presented at the Local, Regional and the State level and had now been selected for the National Children’s Science Congress at Ahmedabad on December 27, 2009. The achievement of these students from ZP schools who have overcome many challenges of their rural background is indeed commendable!
