A two-day gala festivity of school stall display, debate, sports and cultural program took place at Joteraghob High School Field on the occasion of Education Fair 2019. One of the highlights of the Fair was the display in school stalls showcasing the achievements of the schools, including science labs. The sports activities did not just include football and cricket, popular folk sports such as lathi performance, human “cock fight” and others added the flavor of rural Bangladesh. In some sports activities teachers also took part.

The Fair culminated with a prize awarding ceremony graced by the honorable State Minister for Foreign Affairs, Mr. Md. Shahriar Alam, MP on the evening of April 13, 2019. Distinguished dignitaries of Bagha Upazila were present. The award ceremony which was followed by a cultural program drew a crowd of students, parents and community members totaling a few thousand.

The honorable minister praised the festive environment created around the Education Fair and expressed great appreciation to VAB and to American & Efird for helping rural schools attain quality education.

For the past few years, as part of its program on quality education, VAB has been encouraging and helping organize Education Fairs where local schools participate. The fairs allow schools to showcase their accomplishments, students to excel in co-curricular activities, and the communities to appreciate the contribution of schools and to value quality education.

Quality education for the underprivileged in rural Bangladesh.
