As usual FN keeps himself out of the picture after doing most of the organising ,taking on the role of quiz master together with Leroy and contributing so much to the new vibrant atmosphere at Saligao Institute. It was heartwarming to see quite a number of members doing their bit to make the event a success and also to see many Saligao kids participating in the quiz. I'm sure this will encourage them to gain more general knowledge
Thanks for the ideas and energy you've put in Rico and Leroy.
