The FirstWord ELEEducation Today it is common to see toddlers and preschoolers using tablets, playing programmed games etc. The use of ICT in education and training has become a priority during the last decade. ICT has brought a rapid transformation of the economic, political and cultural society therefore it is necessary for Early years schools to adapt it at the earliest where young children obtain a training base use throughout life time. To meet the demands of the rapidly growing society. BSS has taken this initiative to bring change in the curriculum integrated with ICT at Early years. I am grateful to all my parents for a successful term which was possible through your accommodating parental
collaboration I look forward to your co-operation and appreciation as always. Regards,
S.Narjis Rizvi
