Story of Change
Tina* a young girl with a passion for learning, began as a mentor for younger children in the Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) program, implemented with the help of Gubbachi Foundation, supported by Mindtree Foundation. She assisted the ECCE teacher and took on responsibilities, settling into her role with ease. After a year, she moved to Class 1 at Kodathi GHPS, where she excelled beyond everyone's expectations
Not only did Tina excel in numeracy and literacy, but she also surpassed her peers in English. Now in Class 4, Tina is a diligent student who values education and puts in the effort to succeed. Although an introvert by nature, she is kind and prefers to avoid conflict. Tina is a sensitive child who becomes emotional easily.
It is a pleasure to watch Tina grow and develop her talents. Recently, Tina sat for the entrance exam for the Ankur program and has been shortlisted for the residential program at Samhita Academy for the upcoming academic year.
