Most of the students bagged the top places in various events.<\/p>\n<p>This month\u2019s competition is the first official pre-regional meet and there will be two more preliminary meets before the regional event in February 2019. This competition is designed to empower and inspire students to foster communication, collaboration, and critical thinking. <\/p>\n<p>Only a few of GMS students competed this month due to the students\u2019 hectic schedules.
