Nestled in the beautiful village of Benaulim (our home turf) is St.Aloysius school...

 

A hop skip and jump from Tara Trust office...

 

St.Aloysius High School, which is located in the Holy Trinity Parish Centre, was transferred in 2002 from Majorda, where it was run by a private party. It is now managed by the Diocesan Society of Education. The School has pre-primary, primary and secondary sections.

 

Our largest group of energetic young minds, around 125 of them....Our Tara volunteers Nancy, Nisha and Soraiya had the arduous task of coordinating the event...The principal Mr. Eric Fernandes and his staff were cooperative and helped when they could...

 

 

The children couldn’t wait to begin paintings after the presentation..Once we began shouts for more colours were heard...They were keen on painting messages of peace and love from Goa...They had a zillion questions like “Miss, can I paint a Goan scenery so the children know what Goa looks like” to “Are the children in Japan really going to wear our T-shirts”.....a lot of hidden talent came to the fore which was displayed in the t-shirts that we collected...

 

 

The children had a blast and As always our programmes ended on a high....

Dependable Nancy perfect in her arrangement with the materials, t-shirts and paints but then our camera stops working...Nisha to the rescue with her i-phone...
