Dear Readers
Setu remained undeterred despite Covid19 situation around but with caution. During the last quarter Oct to Dec 20 our endeavour to Skill and Empower the under –served continued. Slowly we adapted to the new normal. Education activities though majorly conducted online continued, however with social distancing the students of Class 9 to 12 starting coming to School. The women empowerment Vocational Skill Programs which were being conducted online also stated offline in a phased manner.
Project “ Saksham”
Despite lockdown classes continued at our Skill centres, initially online then in hybrid mode with some students attending online and some of them attending physically at the centre. During the Quarter 687 students enrolled for students, 340 students were certified and 99 were placed.
We did not have many celebrations due to social distancing norms but at our new centre at Village Laliya Ka Bas Jaipur we celebrated Diwali and Xmas. Vishwakarma Puja and Diwali Puja was organised at our Noida centres also. Many students participated.
