nurtures both Science, Technology,
Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) skills &
21st century skills from an early age
To build scientific temperament among
children to become innovative solution
seekers & creative problem solvers.
To provide hands-on and minds-on
learning experience of STEM education
to promote enquiry based learning
among students
To improve learning level appropriate
to class of the study for science and
mathematics.

8. Skills sets are rapidly evolving in India and
elsewhere. According to a report from FICCI-
NASSCOM; By 2022, over a third of Indiaâs
workforce will be in jobs requiring new skills. To
enable the young generation to be competent
for the roles requiring radically different skill
sets, it is essential to introduce students to the
world of science and technology at an early age
through initiatives that hone STEM skills in a
fun-filled way besides nurturing their life skills
