UAE, Nov 27: Continuing with the practice started since its inception by the managing committee of the UAE Amchigele Samaj, the Samaj intends to honour the students of grade I to XII, who have excelled during the academic year 2008-2009 in their academics as well as have posted good achievements at the inter-school, national or international level, in extra curricular activities, the Samaj said in a release.
The categories under which the achievement will be grouped are:
Scholastic
For excellence in academics.
Non-scholastic
Achievements like ‘Best Student Of The Year’
Achievements in Inter School Competitions
Representation at the National & International Level
The basic eligibility criteria for the students to qualify for the honours are:
The achievements should have been during the academic year 2008-2009.
The student should have passed from the institution in the UAE during that year.
The Managing Committee at its meeting has reviewed the basic yardstick for submission of the mark sheets. The Samaj has decided to call for a copy of the marks sheets of all those students in Grade I – XII who have secured 85% and above marks in aggregate and/or secured an overall grade of 'A' ( in case of schools giving grades instead of marks), and certificates from students in the Grade I - XII who have non scholastic achievements. While all the students securing the above marks/grades would be honoured, students who have secured 90% and above and grade 'A+' will be honoured in a way different from the other students, the release explained.
The decision of the managing committee in finalizing the list and all the matters related to the above will be final, the Samaj has said, and has requested the students to contact the following committee members for submission of their certificates/marks sheets and hand deliver the same to them.

The Abu Dhabi students may contact Chandrakant Kini or scan the copies of marksheets/certificates and mail him on ckkini@yahoo.co.uk. The last day for submission of marks sheets is December 10, 2009. The top achievers from amongst the entries will be chosen for the honour on the annual day, by the committee and the parents will be notified by e-mail. The decision of the committee in this regard will be final, the Samaj has reiterated.
