My Project
We are excited to propose a project aimed at enhancing our students' critical thinking and teamwork skills through an engaging end-of-year puzzle competition. As the school year draws to a close, we want to provide our students with a memorable and rewarding experience to celebrate their growth and achievements together. By organizing a puzzle competition, we aim to foster collaboration, problem-solving, and strategic thinking among our students. Through this initiative, they will have the opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills they have acquired throughout the year in a fun and challenging setting. Your generous support will enable us to acquire puzzles, ensuring that every student can participate and contribute to the collective success of the event. Together, we can empower our students to celebrate their accomplishments while further developing their critical thinking and teamwork abilities.
