The New LACAS Gulberg Branch

LACAS just added another feather in its already full cap with a new branch built specifically for its 'A'level students. Situated in an easily accessible area near Sherpao Bridge 26 H Gulberg 2 ,this 10 canal purpose built campus provides all the facilities expected from a well-known private institution. LACAS once again lives up to its reputation of providing its students with an education-friendly environment, while keeping in view their need for sports facilities. We are confident that this campus will prove to be a success. And for those of you who may not like the shift from the 34 canal Burki Campus to the 10 canal Gulberg Campus lets jut say 'Good things come in small packages'.

Summary:
Treatment with animals in Pakistan has never been fair. The animal rights society of LACAS plans to make a stand against these practices of injustice with these creations of Almighty and invited some of Lahore's prominent schools to join their struggle by sharing ideas in a conference. Keeping in mind that all solutions should be beneficial to human beings and fair to animals, various major issues were discussed into roots of the terrible past, already stirred economy, social welfare and moral values. The best solutions will be sent to the high ranking officials of The Government of Pakistan as a suggestion letter from the participating schools. We hope that we will be able to make the rights of animals in our country and make us a God fearing nation.

2 DAYS LEFT TO GO!!

With just two days left for the long awaited Azeem Khan Tribute, Taimur Rahman has been doing his rounds around the classrooms, making people aware of much more than a concert date. 
Alongside giving a mini-performance with each meeting, Mr. Rahman tries to give students something to think about i.e. the message incorporated within  the music of Laal. 


So for those who want to sing along on Sunday night, check out this track by Laal:



Current students of LACAS must bring their ID cards for entry.
Alumni must bring their invites with them.
