Colouring Competiton (12/4/13)



Colouring is great to develop the fine motor skills of children. Colouring also helps to develop the hand-eye coordination, since it creates a challenge for kids to colour within the lines. This will help them in other works such as grip, self expression, focus and boundaries. Knowing its importance, we at Orchids, organized colouring competition for our preprimary students on 12/04/13. The students were enthusiastic and enjoyed colouring.

Winners:


1st – Simra Anwar Ali
2nd – Arpit N and K.Sai Sri Sushanth
3rd – K.K.Ragavan
