the brief on Computer Graphics by Mr Aatash, the seniors showcased a variety of
interesting projects. From Monopoly to a social media page, these students put
in a lot of time and effort to make their projects a great success.

project using a female superhero. With colorful animations, it shows how the
heroine saved the day by punching the bad guys to space. Mr Arvind Prabhu made
an online social media site. This was complete with a profile, status, news and
even an interactive game of X-O.
