Advik’s school keeps on hosting different extracurricular activities for the students. Information related to art, culture, nature and environmental science is disseminated to budding learners through such topics. Exposure to these topics helped the little quizzing geek to figure out answers to some questions easily. “It was the first time that I have participated in a quiz. Moreover, coming 14th among so many other children makes me really happy,” says Advik while sharing his journey through ClassAct 2022.
Advik found the picture-based questions to be quite interesting. “I could easily relate to the images which made it easier for me to answer the questions,” he says.
