The exams were over by Wednesday 18 December 2019 and the school closed for Christmas holidays on 20 December 2019. A celebration for the staff was organised at the school on the closing date. Like in the previous week, being at the school during these exam days helped us to learn more about the various proceedings for conducting examinations. We were exempted from the invigilation duties.

(09.12.2019 to 13.12.2019) The fifth week of our practice teaching session got successfully completed. This week, there were no regular classes at the school as the second terminal exams were going on. The exams started on 9 December 2019 and stretched up to 20 December 2019.
