    Congratulations to KNS for organising such a wonderful event. It was a great pleasure to be involved with the singing competition. The competitions were very tough and the singers showed a lot of professionalism. Congratulation to Smenita Pinto, Bondel for getting the Third Place in the girls solo and Shelton Pinto, Bondel for getting Second place in the Boys solo. Great show by the Bondel Church team also winning the first place in all the duets (Onita and Jennifer -girls duet, Shelton and Suraj - Boys duet, Aruna and Suraj -Couples duet) and first place in the group singing for the third consecutive year. I am also very grateful for the support given by Fr Andrew D'Souza, Parish Priest, Fr Patrick Sequira, Asst. Parish Priest and the Cultural Committee of the parish. Lot of hard work is also put in by Mrs Helen Pinto to coordinate with the singers.
