KARACHI, (MIOLLAT ONLINE):Governor Sindh, Mohammad Zubair will inaugurate a state-of-the-art and purpose-built
school building in Mithi, the divisional capital of remotely located Thar on March 4.
GCT Executive Officer, Zahid Saeed talking to APP on Monday said
launching of the state-of-the-art school building in Mithi would be a
major milestone in the mission of trust to provide quality school
education to children across the province.
The purpose-built and state-of-the-art building will house three
different schools, pre-primary, primary and secondary (upto 10th
standard) with a capacity to cater modern day educational needs of
1,500 plus kids on pure charitable basis.
“The new state of art facility besides targeting children of
Mithi, will also accommodate students of a number of villages of all
tehsils of Tharparkar,” said Zahid Saeed.
The ground-plus-two storied state of art structure comprising 27
purpose-built classrooms was said to have further provision for
science and computer labs.
Reiterating that the Trust was committed to serve the children
belonging to most disadvantaged area of the province, Zahid Saeed also
expressed his gratitude to the donors for their steady support.
GCT, he said was actively engaged to increase students’
enrollment from present 350 to 1,500 students through an active
community oriented engagement drive.
Various means of mass contact and publicity are being used to
motivate parents to send their wards to the school and it was only
recently that an “Open House” session was held at Mithi, attended by
more than 2,000 people.
The purpose-built facility itself was said to have been completed
against an approximate cost of Rs 45 million with the support of two
of the major donors of GCT.
“It was only recently that GCT’s schools in Thar performed
very well in the first ever Thar Science Festival held in collaboration
with Sindh government”.
