India’s Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will open
a centre in Dubai to cater to its schools in the region, an Indian minister
announced on Wednesday.
Speaking via Skype from New Delhi, Dr M.M. Pallam Raju,
Minister for Human Resource Development, told a packed conference of CBSE
schools at the Indian High School in Dubai: “I am happy to say that a CBSE
sub-regional centre will be opened in Dubai [shortly].”
Inviting Young Artists from CBSE affiliated schools
The first ever initiative of the board to invite young artiststo
contribute art works for CBSE publications paid rich dividends. All the school
participated wholeheartedly and the board received a large number of entries.
The screening committee finally selected the four best entries which adorned the
CBSE Diary 2013. The art works were indeed distinct in terms of colour, forms,
lines, texture, space and organisation.
