Dubai, UAE : GEMS Our Own English High School, Dubai student Sarvesh Sridhar, aged 9, was delighted when his book ‘Tom and the Treasure of Death Island’ was published and even happier when the Founder and Chairman of GEMS Education, Mr Sunny Varkey, met him in person to congratulate him on his success.
“It was a great honour and inspiration to meet Mr Varkey – he was very interested in my book and how I came to write it. I hope to write more such adventure books in the future,” said Sarvesh.
Mr Varkey, who also hosted Sarvesh’s parents Sridhar and Abirami and sister Shweta, added: “We always try to find the genius in all our children and Sarvesh’s talent as a writer is already clear to see. We will work hard with him at OOD to nurture his skills and help him to further successes.”
Sarvesh’s father, Sridhar, said: “It was great motivation for Sarvesh and his sister to meet Mr Varkey and definitely will help them to focus and aim higher in their studies and extracurricular activities.”
