Soon after that all the students were engaged into group performance and as the day ends all the students came together with overwhelming hearts and captured the memories of this four wonderful days in their heart, mind and soul. Everyone took photograph with Mr. Shankar and Mr. Dilip which will remind them of how wonderful and dynamic personality they were and how is such a small span of time they taught such valuable lessons to the young budding hoteliers which will definitely help them in their studies as well as throughout their career and life.
I would like to say that as being a part of this Orientation Program I felt so welcomed and overjoyed as Regency became my second home and not just a place I go and study just to accrue knowledge. These wonderful memories will always remain in my heart as I keep growing and improving in my academies, career and as an individual person.
