Adorable photography from the Gala festival that would be exciting and enjoyable moments of the teachers, students and for parents as well. I’m sure all the students and everyone who participate they enjoy here a lot and spend quality time.

Congratulations for having such as successful legacy gala! It is obvious from the pictures that you had a wonderful night. I like the message that you are trying to spread, 'everyone can make a difference' - that is such an inspiring line. No matter how young a person is, he / she can still make a difference to build a better community. As a young person, I believe that I can contribute to make a difference, to make changes for the better. Continue spreading your wonderful advocacy!
