Thirukkural recitation competition @ Allinagaram Govt High school - Nov 2011


For the second consecutive year, a Thirukkural recitation competition was organized for students of the Allinagaram Govt. High School on November 29, 2011 by Parasuram Salammal Trust, in association with the Inner Wheel Club of Theni. The number of students participating in the competition increased to 37, which included 20 students who participated for the first time this year. In order to encourage the first-timers, prizes were awarded to any student who recited more than 50 kurals (couplets). The teachers of the school were also present to encourage the students.




Ms. M.Karthika and Ms. M.Rajeswari, who bagged the first and second prize last year, won the competition this year also, while Master Ananthprakash came third. Inner Wheel President Ms. Abirami, while distributing the prizes expressed happiness that the competition has increased the interest in Thirukkural, one of the most revered ancient works in the Tamil language, among the school students. Headmaster Mr. Malaiyarasan in his speech encouraged the students to learn and recite more kurals for the next year’s competition.  Ms. Dhanalakshmi Asokan, PST trustee delivered the vote of thanks.
