*Goa History Quiz Competition* For the last five years, the Xavier Centre of Historical Research (XCHR) has been organizing ‘Goa History Quiz Inter-School Competition’. Given that very little of Goan history is taught in the schools, this quiz is an innovative attempt to make students delve into the Pre-Portuguese, Portuguese and post-liberation periods of our history. The quiz master is Mr. Rajiv D’Silva from Sunday Evening Quiz Club. This year the quiz is being held in collaboration with the GOA BOARD OF SECONDARY & HIGHER SECONDARY EDUCATION in 2 phases. The preliminary written round will be held on Friday, 16th September 2016 at 9.30 am. Students from South Goa will answer this round at Loyola High School, Margao, while students from North Goa will do it at XCHR, Porvorim. The results of the preliminary round will be declared on our website www.xchr.in <http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.xchr.in%2F&h=7AQEjx78h&enc=AZNDjCw8ZUG_aZu4FIM0VNUp3kKkgl53He0FyXDhfUpteyyyjSIyu5orGkkcebBgerA&s=1> and on our Facebook page on 19th September 2016. Twelve teams each will be selected on merit from South Goa and North Goa respectively and these twenty four teams will participate in the final round on Saturday, 24th September, at 9.00 am at XCHR, Porvorim. The entry forms have been sent to all the schools by email and duly completed entries should reach XCHR latest by 14th September2016.
