Srinivasa Ramanujan, fantastically painted by Mast. Abhinav of class 8. A shawl was draped on Vice Principal, Mrs.Omana Mathews, as a special mark of respect by Maths department for her untiring 36 years of service to the institution.
The program commenced with a power point presentation by Mast. Mihir Rawat, Mast Sharon and Mast Anek Santhosh, summarizing the life of the man who knew infinities, which kept the audience awestruck. This was followed by a mesmerizing Magic Square Dance by the girls of class 8, where the Principal was asked to tell out a magic constant 36 (multiple of 3) and the girls formed a magic square through their dance. In the much awaited mind-boggling Sudoku Contest, Ann Maria and Akhila Anup won the 1st and 2nd prize, respectively, in the junior category. In the senior category, Miss Riya Jacob won the 1st place, cracking the puzzle in just 1:15 s and Miss Sarvani falling close behind with a timing of 1:20s.

Though Ramanujan had no formal training in pure mathematics; he made significant contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions. His love for Math was so much that he failed in most of the other subjects in school!
