“We were really happy to hear about this event, and we immediately registered. It is wonderful that the event is timed during the school holidays in Oman. So children get to travel to India and also make the holidays a productive time. It also helps children to see the larger network of Brainobrain and Abacus,” says Ashwathy Dino, a Brainobrain parent and teacher at Indian School Nizwa. The primary aim of such programmes is not to breed an aggressive competitive attitude but to instill a sense of self-confidence and make learning an interactive and interesting process.
Winners of each category will be awarded championship titles and certification, which will add overall worth to their academic journey. “The regular Brainobrain sessions will ensure that the children are always well prepared for any contests or exams. This takes away additional stress and allows children to face such programmes with ease and confidence,” says the center head at Brainobrain, Oman.
