==='''SPARK'S FIRST BATCH GRADUATED!'''===
+
Wiki successfully set up.
-
With the end-sems coming to a close, and the hostel work to be completed by the time
+
-
the students return after their vacations, the activity on Spark has officially come
+
-
to a close. Courtesy the generous contributions by people from CMI, we were able to
+
-
buy quite a lot of stationery for the kids. We delivered it to them last Tuesday (I
+
-
think!) and Vipul, Nivedita and I went over there this Monday to see if they have put it
+
-
to good use. In fact, Satish was so excited he had stolen a few books from the other
+
-
two and had worked on it! He had also done some basic arithmetic questions, figuring
+
-
things out on his own. Trust me, minus english, doing that was no mean task. We spent
+
-
another hour there talking to them and so on and told them it would be our final
+
-
meeting with them. As good teachers, we advised them to be good and study hard.
+
-
Satish amused himself by calling me on my cell form Vipul's cell a few feet away. He
+
-
even noted down my number. It was quite touching. Though the other two kids were
+
-
perhaps too young to appreciate that this would perhaps be our final meet, Satish
+
-
seemed to get it and he was evidently pained at it.
+
-
Post this, one of the men working there came upto me and asked me if I can get him
+
-
similar books for his daughter. He knows to read Telugu and can read the English
+
-
alphabet. He wanted to pick up some more English himself and teach it to his daughter as well. So,
+
-
I am going to deliver it to him.
+
-
Finally, I think we need to give the whole team a pat on the back, for I think we have
+
-
accomplished quite a bit. My thanks to everyone involved and hope a new edition of
+
-
Spark starts next year.
+
-
Lastly, for the people who only know of our students as "the kids", I have uploaded a few photos!
