Another remarkable achievement was added to the already glorious achievement list of GD Goenka Public School Lucknow when Abaneesh Pal, a student of grade IX, made the school and his parents proud by securing the second position in the prestigious Wiz National Spell-Bee contest. He received a trophy and cash reward of Rs 7000/- and was felicitated at the award ceremony held at Ravindra Bhawan, Madgaon, Goa, on 16 September 2024.
He was the winner of the inter-school and state level rounds of this contest and finally became the runner-up in the National Mega Final.
Abaneesh is a regular participant in such literary events especially the spell-bees and his penchant for reading and vocabulary building has always got him success in these events.
He was also the UP State Topper in 2023-24 in the State-level Spell-Bee.
At the press conference, he expressed his gratitude towards his parents, grandparents, and his school, mainly the Principal Dr Prerna Mitra and Librarian ma’am, who were the continuous supporters and catalysts throughout his journey and regular academics.
