Primary Education

Mini Science Centres

Primary education reveals the horizons that empower the recipients to establish a name of their own and help society in their own ways. It is the first step to becoming a contributing member of the community and no person should be deprived of the opportunity. Children in their early years are most receptive to information and so it is the best time for them to know the benefits of primary education. UBL lends a hand in promoting conducive learning environment to the schools in the villages around its breweries. The myriad projects range from unique Mini Science Centres to providing basic infrastructure support with the help of the NGOs in the areas.
