Seul Ki,a South Korean student at the MIT Vishwashanti Gurukul,Raj Baug,Loni,recently won a scholarship for an International Summer School in London (July 2012) for her series of art works. In her twelfth grade,Seul’s works of art were sent through an education consultant agency based in Mumbai. Seul has been studying in our school for the past three years. She is extremely passionate about her paintings but never compromised on her studies, says Venugopal,principal of the secondary section of MIT Vishwashanti Gurukul. I am excited to spend my summer there. However,I have always preferred studying in India to any other country because of its quality of education, Ki says. Her art teacher,Nanda,is all praise about her student. Seul is very cooperative and a great team player. Her work with the brush is extraordinary, she says.

The paper was judged as the best. The school was represented by Chinmay Chobhe,Kanak Kulkarni and Mandharr Dareykar.
