S. P. J. Sadhana - Monthly Update – March 2007 The school was geared from 1st March t the end of the month – to share our educational technologies, therapies, pre-vocational and vocational skills with 5 Nigerian Professionals who were here for a month’s training, thanks to the Lions International Clubs. It was our outreach to Africa to empower the trainer to make a difference in every mentally challenged Nigerian child. The Certification Ceremony was a solemn and dignified one, held at Blue Seas Banquets with Lion Ashok Mehta, Chairperson of Lions International Clubs, as Chief Guest, on 29th March 2007. The invitees were Counsels of different countries and important people from the city. On 30th March 2007, the annual school concert this year, was a concert of dances, the finale being the Nigerians dancing with students and staff, was a fitting ending to a focused and empowering training. “S.
