The best of gains is achieved through investment in knowledge. Crescent High School has cracked it right! Aiming at creating awareness on usage of varied words in oral expressions and then adding them to active vocabulary of students, we have done it!

The participants were able to spell the words correctly with unflinching ease. The ‘ARENA OF SPELL’ came alive with various rounds. The competition was tough but indeed it was a learning experience as they dueled the toughest word with ease. Great spell skills were exhibited by the students of grade 1-8. The spellers were so enthusiastic and so were the English teachers.

The school spirit was high as 8 students were selected for the state level competition which was scheduled on 28th October at Maharashtra Mandal. Master Affan Shaikh from category 4 secured 8th position in Maharashtra with selection for National level Spell Bee Competition.

Cancer often creates fear which comes out of ignorance and misconception. More than 30% of cancer cases could be prevented by modifying lifestyle or avoiding key risk factors.

Mr Gurdeep Singh from Cancer Aid Society briefed our students. Indeed it was an informative session.
