This is a little bit old news, but i have to mention this in the the blog because it is so important.

As some of you might already know Junior Past Pupils Association in my good old school is a fantastic team who is really willing and geared up to do something valuable to the school. So to celebrate the 70th anniversary we decided to host a mega size exhibition on 25th - 27th October. This became the biggest exhibition ever done in the school and also the biggest ever done in the whole region. We had over 100 different exhibition stalls including 20+ government departments, student talent shows, a carnival with a musical show, and our very own FM channel - 'D' FM.

I was overall responsible for the IT/Computer section. It was not that hard to create a wonderful IT experience to the visitors which eventually became the 'most popular' section of the whole exhibition, because I had a great team to work with ... Rajitha, Charith (Mr. Facebook), Anuradha, Dilum, and several others, my brother midda did some great work in creating most of the artwork. Also there were many school chaps. Among the things we did for the IT Showcase ... we created a 100 foot long poster - 'Computer History Timeline' which elaborates the History Computers ... you name it all the key inventions, important people, incidents ... everything is there in this, next we designed about 50 A1 size posters displaying information about important companies, people, hardware and software in the industry ... and then there was XBox's which kids lined up to get their turn to play. It was a loads of fun to have the game challenges etc. Also I did couple of presentations for groups (approx. 30 students) about PhotoSynth, HDView, Windows Live etc.

It's not fair if I thank the team ... because no point in me thanking for something which we all did ... Let me just say ... we nailed it ... woo! hoo!

So ... another big initiative from the junior past pupils association ended successfully. Stay tuned for the next big extravaganza ... Well! we always aspire to do big things ;)
