NATIONAL SCIENCE DAY CELEBRATION - 03/03/2021

Proving what chemistry taught us through experiments is perhaps the most important part of learning the subject. Learning and experiencing new things is a continuous process. It is a proven fact that we learn the most by doing, experiencing and seeing things. Students are always bubbling with enthusiasm when it comes to learning new things. To encourage this enthusiasm, Aurum club has conducted 'Chemotsav' where the students demonstrated various experiments through interesting videos.
