COASTWEEK - - THE Aga Khan Junior Academy and The Aga Khan Kenya Secondary School had a very busy Open Day recently.
The students and teachers had worked very hard to produce some truly amazing and beautiful projects and displays related to the academic work that goes on at the school.

There were projects on a wide range of subjects such as Science, Literature, Geography, History, Art and French.

It was obvious that the wonderful displays were the outcome of a lot of effort, imagination and determination.

Besides the 'academic' projects, these were displays related to careers and the teaching of HIV and AIDS.

An outstanding item of the fabulous art exhibition was the 'Light and Sound' piece by Jason Fernandes.

He displayed a show of different coloured light on his painting 'Light' to the music of a solemn song 'Conquest of paradise'

His aim was to show that sight is definitely affected by sound.

Indeed, his painting was transformed into a Kaleidoscope of colours at different beats of the song.

The Open Day brought together everyone interested in education.

Besides the students, teachers and parents belonging to the schools, there was an encouraging response from the general public as well.

Mrs. Narmin Somji, the chairperson of the Aga Khan Education Service, Mombasa attended the Open Day and congratulated all the students who had produced the projects.

The students were all present besides their projects to explain them and answer questions from the visitors.

The entire morning was filled with excitement and the buzz of activities.

We look forward to another open day next year.
