Summary* My educational experience at

Argyle was good. * It provides a number of practical

opportunities to grow in addition to the theory that we are learning in school.

* EBB programs are the best to learn and understand science and technology.

* It provides practical skills in addition to theory that we are learning in the school. It helps to build the curiosity and brings out the best from the kids.
