A coaching centre for schoolchildren in Kolkata

DG Prabir Chatterjee inaugurated a coaching centre, Panthaniwas E-Pathshala, established recently by RC Calcutta Jadavpur, RID 3291, at Dwaronda in Shantiniketan, Kolkata. The centre will provide coaching in all subjects for students of Classes 1 to 10 from the surrounding four villages. The club has engaged five graduate students who will take classes for the children five days a week and the headmaster of the Dwaronda High School will visit the centre twice a week to keep track of the system. Light snacks will be provided ­everyday to the children attending classes at the centre.

An adult literacy programme will provide basic literacy at the centre to the domestic helps of the Panthaniwas complex. Reference books, notebooks and stationery were distributed to the students at the inauguration of the centre.
