Project to spot talents and provide
avenues of integral growth effecting emergence of Excellence |
|
The
spiralling competitions in the swift moving world present
to our youth challenges that often seem too tough to cope
with. In this highly competitive scenario, only the
industrious and enterprising stand a fair chance of
success. It is against this backdrop that a team of
committed educationists has come out in grit to carry the
cream of the top notch teens of the Diocese of Cochin for
a voyage across. Any attempt in the process is worth
reckoning. Awakened by the synergizing support offered by
the well-wishers, the Diocese with His Excellency the
Bishop as its Patron, launches Cochin Olympiad a
time-bound programme, that aims at shaping and sprucing
our gifted students to be top achievers. The project will
focus on imparting an integral formation wielding accent
on the development of human resources with a view to
equipping our budding talents to be a force in the nation
building process.
The Educational Ministry of
the Diocese will mastermind the training programme and
invites parents and well-wishers to lend their unstinted
support to adorn the prospective winners of the highly
prestigious Olympiad with strong willed 'wings of fire'
for an unrelenting flight. |
