The summer vacation hobby camp in various subjects will be held for students from Class 6 to 10 from May 1 to June 10 at the centre. It comprises various subjects such as Physics, Bioscience, Electronics, Robotics, Astronomy and Chemistry. The training will be held in two subjects daily in the forenoon and afternoon.
