The children of class I represented marine life using different shapes and were appreciated by the judges for their innovation and novelty.
I Speak was all about speaking out ones views on the topics provided on the spot. The topic in English was Age is just a number whereas the student participating in the Hindi competition spoke on Koshish karne walo ki kabhi haar nahi hoti. Tickle me Kodu was an IT based competition whereas Whose act is it anyway had a few topics which forced the young minds to think out of the box , analyse and present their act in a way that it enlightened their own as well as the viewers minds.
After a difficult assessment a refreshment break was given to the participants to relax before the results were announced. The little ones of classes 1 and 2 secured the first position in their event and were awarded a certificate and a memento.
It was undoubtedly a learning experience filled with fun for all the participants. They came back to School happy and excited.
