It gave the students an exposure to the world of literary competitions. Anoushka Saxena- It was a good experience to enhance our skills at on-the-spot writing. The topics given were quite interesting like: - If I became invisible, When I helped someone and My interesting vacation. The time given was 1 hour and we had to choose one topic of the three and give them a beautiful essay. I chose the topic If I became Invisible. I had fun writing about some mischief I could do or maybe help someone without him/ her knowing about it! I learnt a lot about on-the-spot writing and would not repeat my mistakes again. I would like to thank my teachers for giving me this opportunity and hope to be chosen in future also. The students were adjudged on 1. Originality, Expression and the Command over the language After a power-packed day we returned to School at 1 pm. We eagerly await the result and hope for the best. Ms. Purnima Dwivedi.
