Balazine team is very excited to announce the annual issue of Balazine to be published in May 2010. We are seeking contributions from all Balavihar students and graduates. All Balavihar relevant and original contributions are encouraged, here are some pointers to help you:
What we are looking for:

- Travelogues and personal experiences
- Recipes (something whacky you tried and it turned out yummy)

If you are a Balavihar graduate, we’d like to hear from you! We hope your contributions will illustrate to current students how the values learnt in Balavihar are applied in everyday life after graduation!
