Reaching for the space could be just that easy! "Dreams do come true," chimed our children in unison after this recent interaction! Our children had a fantastic interactive session with the space experts from NASA: Norman Knight, Director of the Flight Operations Directorate; Emily Nelson, Chief Flight Director; Joseph Acaba, NASA Astronaut; Makaela Mendrala, International Program Specialist, Office of International and Interagency Relations. Samantha Jackson, U.S. Consulate General Chennai Spokesperson, joined in our valuable session. A heartfelt thank you to the NASA team for the excellent interaction and to our long-term supporter, the U.S. Consulate General Chennai.

A very special moment for me was to be asked to give away the award to our very own student Chaithra Achar at the Karanataka Women's Achievers Award function. Chaithra got the award for Excellence in acting. She gave a very tearful but lovely speech on how she has learnt to be confident in her school. She also acknowledged Kalpana her teacher who made her act in schools. It was a very poignant evening for both Kalpana and me. I comforted Kalpana that there will be many such moments in the future. Our students are doing so well, choosing such interesting careers and excelling in them. My thanks to all the teachers of Parikrma who have invested so much of themselves in their students. And my thanks to the organizers of KWAA and Spoorthi Vishwas for recognizing such talent. This photo has Spoorthi Vishwas and Pooja Gandhi both who have made their mark in Kannada cinema.

The leadership team at TechSera had an incredible day during their recent visit to the Parikrma Humanity Foundation. The experience was unforgettable, leaving a lasting impression on everyone involved. The team had the opportunity to interact with enthusiastic students, engaging in lively conversations that brought to light the children's dreams and aspirations. In addition to sharing stories and laughter, the TechSera team took great joy in providing delicious food to the children, ensuring they had a moment of delight during their day. They also presented stationery, including notebooks and study materials, to the students at the Parikrma Humanity Foundation. Team TechSera's visits uplifted spirits, creating a warm and joyful atmosphere. At the heart of this initiative was Mr. Abhijeet Singh, TechSera's CEO, who is known for his unwavering commitment to societal welfare. He passionately believes in uplifting communities and making a positive impact through meaningful engagement. Mr. Abhijeet Singh was joined by TechSera’s leadership team, which included Jaitheertha Kulkarni, Deepak Bhandarkar, Priti Gautam, Fahim Assadi Tokur, shrey bhatt, and Richa Bhardwaj. Together, they made a significant difference, and their collective efforts demonstrated the spirit of giving back to the community. #Communityservice #NGOvisit #Leadership #GoTechSera #GrowTechSera

What a tournament! This year's Parikrma Champions League was all about great football, with teams from across states making it to the semi-finals, exhibition girls' team matches, friendly match - CEOs vs Parikrma, and activities including art shows and games. What was really special this year? We had teams from diverse and remote parts of the country, such as the school from Assam, who played outside their state for the first time on the turf. This is a testament to our unwavering commitment to making sports inclusive, diverse, and equitable. The winners of this year's Equality Cup and the Runner-up teams both have our alumni as their coaches. These success stories are a testament to our legacy as a nonprofit school. We thank all our supporters for making this year's PCL a success!
