Debates at Herman Gmeiner school, SOS village.

SOS village, is such a well known project that, it does not require any introduction. In Multan, it is being headed and run by the very capable, visionary of a personality, Mrs. Mahnaz Fareed. This young, bright & beautiful lady, has dedicated herself, to a task so divine, which raises her status among angels in this world. This remarkable woman is not only a loving mom to her own kids, but has taken hundreds of orphans and abandoned children in her protection, under  the shelter of SOS village.    

Herman Gmeiner is also a project of the SOS village, another feather in the wings of gorgeous Mahnaz. Who was first, to dream of a school, which provides quality education and atmosphere, like any of the highest ranking, expensive schools of this country, but is affordable for the children of low income group. A determined soul that she is, after she  achieved the target of getting a perfect set up of buildings for sos village. She extended her efforts, further to educate children of this facility. This dream of hers' came true, in form of Herman Gmeiner school. Which boasts of a conspicuous building and highly qualified faculty of teachers. She then, started striving, day and night, to beautify the lives of the children, dependant on her. 

The realization of the importance of extra curricular activities in the academia, stands affirm. And under this cognizance, this school holds innumerable activities, including debates contests, etc. In the previous weeks, declamation contests were arranged among the children of different classes. Children participated with great enthusiasm. And their confidence, creativity, commitment & spirit of effort, was a treat to watch. It was apparent, it is no charity school, but something, even better of a highest degree, which invokes in its' pupils, the aspiration to become winners in every field of life. We congratulate, Mrs. Mahnaz Fareed, along with her friends, Rameen Anis, Hania Shahid, Saadia Yaqub, who serve as supporting pillars for her, in running this facility. Also, the students, teachers and staff members of the school, for conducting such an excellent quality of program. Hats off to all of you. Keep up the good work.
