Honour at inter school literary competition

 In the vibrant tapestry of academic events, Modern School, Vasant Vihar, organised a symphony of intellectual challenge and creative exploration through its prestigious Promethean inter school competition on 3 May, 2024. The event served as a vessel for young minds to ignite their imagination and showcase their talents. Divided into three enthralling categories – "Twist a Tale," "Spell Bee," and "Pic a Story" – the competition promised an odyssey of discovery and innovation for its participants.

The inaugural segment, "Twist a Tale" called upon students to traverse the realms of fantasy and fiction, where the boundaries of storytelling were pushed to their limits. Drawing inspiration from timeless classics such as Harry Potter, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, Matilda, and Percy Jackson, participants embarked on a journey of reinterpretation and reimagination.  Avantika Chandna, Gunika Kaher and Shanaya Bhatia of class 5, alongside Agastya Singh Kherwal and Tanish of class 4  , emerged as beacons of creativity by performing a reinterpreted part of the classic ‘Harry Potter’ to captivate the audience and transport it to fantastical realms beyond imagination. They were duly rewarded with the Third Position.

Following the trail of literary exploration, the "Spell Bee" invited students to showcase their linguistic prowess and command over the intricacies of spelling. Comprising of three rounds,   Mukund Singhal and Tanishka Fulfagar of classes of 4 and 5  navigated a labyrinth of words, selecting the correct spellings with finesse and precision.

The denouement of the competition culminated in the "Pic a Story" challenge, where participants were tasked with crafting spontaneous narratives that adhered to Freytag's Pyramid. As the tension mounted and imaginations soared,  Yusuf Khan of class 5 and Aparajita Sengupta  of class 4 stepped into the spotlight, weaving tales that were as captivating as they were profound. Through their fine storytelling, they wove intricate tapestries of emotion and intrigue, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts and minds of the audience.
