Karen Johnpillai, one of the Good Shepherd Convent students who participated in the Umbraco Education Program gives a personal recollection of her experience on the day.
On January 4th, an engaging Umbraco course organized by Luminary took place, bringing together students from two prestigious institutions: Good Shepherd Convent and St. Benedict's College. With 11 students (and two teachers) from each school participating, the event aimed to equip young minds with practical knowledge in web development. The course lasted an extensive 11 hours, making it an intensive yet rewarding experience for all involved.

Our two instructors Mr. Emmanuel Tissera and Mr. Adi Selva made a joint effort to cater to various learning styles throughout the day. The hands-on activities and theoretical discussions benefited our learning. Interactive presentations were utilised to ensure that all participants could grasp the functionalities of Umbraco effectively.
During the breaks, we were treated to a wide spread of food, promoting a social atmosphere among peers. This allowed students from our two schools to interact, share ideas, and cultivate a community of web developers.

As an average ICT student in the past years my personal experience with web development was draining. However, after my enrollment in Umbraco it diverted me into thinking otherwise. The success of this course underscores the importance of practical learning in technical fields.
It has not only equipped me with valuable skills but has also ignited a passion for web development that may influence my future career choices.
It was not just a learning experience; it was a celebration of digital education and youth empowerment.
