An evening of fun learning

It was the second session with the student reporters of YOCee.
Kids and parents found their way to the well known school in the Mylapore area, the P.S. Higher Secondary school hall.
The air-conditioned hall filled with reporters, their parents and a few grand parents was witness to the energetic participation of the kids in the meeting.
The reporters learnt basics of writing, reporting and working for the web. Later Vincent D' Souza, Editor of Mylapore Times, Adyar Times joined the meeting. He asked the kids to take a little walk around their area in weekends to know the neighbourhood better. It would come in handy when it comes to reporting from their area, he added.
The last year's reporters received Certificates and gift vouchers in recognition of their participation in the Student Reporters Programme.
