SEAL Centre in Focus
A B Goregaokar English School
As a part of teachers’ training for SEAL, the English
teachers at AB Goregaokar English School started taking
a SEAL class once a month. The idea is to empower the
teachers with the best pedagogical practices required
to conduct full-fledged SEAL classes going forward. Our
SEAL Teacher Kalpesh is sharing his lesson plans with
them for the time being.

Computer Program, Bandra
One of our students at the Bandra centre, Rahul
Mishra, has successfully landed a part-time job at a
law firm in Dadar as a Business Executive, drawing a
salary of INR 7,000 per month while simultaneously
working towards his B.Com degree at Chetana
College. Rahul, the son of an auto-rickshaw driver
and a resident of Dnyaneshwar Nagar, Bandra East
was a part of the STeP Program (Smile Twin e-
learning Program), and was looking for a part-time
job. He was sent by us for the interview at the law
firm, for which he underwent rigorous training. The
position requires an understanding of computers,
good typing speed and knowledge of conversational
English.
Jumble Sale
In order to provide the students with practical
experience in Retail Marketing, a jumble sale was
organized and managed independently by the
students of the Bandra centre (BECC). Clothes were
donated by the staff and their friends and families
for the sale. The involvement of the neighborhood
community made the sale a great success. The sale
proceeds that amounted to Rs. 24,155/- were
donated for the treatment of a boy suffering from
TB.
Kahani Tree Story Bag
The children of our SEAL centre at ZP Sillod were in for a
big surprise when one of our team mates, Tanya Bharda
gifted them the Kahani Tree story bag which consists of
150 Marathi and English story books. Sillod is a village 60
km from Aurangabad.
