The story behind the story.

Monfort Boys Town is best known for its participation and victory at the country's biggest stage show, the Tadra Kahani.

This year is the 6th time the Monfort boys have stepped up to the challenge against other schools in the country and won.

But what of the boys behind the victory?

The Vocational school of 120 young men from disadvantaged backgrounds is run by only 19 staff, 14 of which are teachers.

School Principal, Brother Thomas said the boys, some of which have dropped out of school or have had problems with their families and have had no where else to go, are taught basic tradesmen skills at a Certificate level to help them survive in the real world.

Brother Thomas also said that the Tadra Kahani is a way of showing the public artistic skills that the boys have and adds that it is a good confidence booster.
