 English day programme 2013.

   Variety is the spice of life. Life without feasts and celebrations is charm less and lifeless. So is true in case of school life. Without programme and celebrations school life becomes monotonous and uninteresting. Therefore, almost all the schools have certain annual programmes such as, Annual Sports meet, Prefect Day, Teachers Day, National Day, etc. These celebrations add colour and charm to school life.
Recently our school celebrated the Annual English Day with great pomp and show. The English Day programme is the most important function in our school. A lot of preparation precedes the function. The main purpose of this function is to thank and appreciate the parents and the guardians of children, who help the school authorities in the process of education.
It is a day of thanksgiving. This year our School’s English Day was held on 23th June. The day was fine and sunny with few streaks of clouds here and there. Our school compound wore a festive look. Arches and colourful flags were everywhere.
Music and song filled the air. The main road leading to the school was beautifully decorated. The children were in their best attire. A group of little kids, dressed in local costumes, stood like angels at the entrance; welcoming everyone with their folded hands.
The function started at 9.30 a.m. with the welcoming of the Chief Guest and the special invitees. They were led by a group of school band. The Chief Guests for the programme was our Divisional Director and Coordinator of RESK.


         
As soon as the Chief Guest reached the school band started the marching tunes. The school children in six groups, dressed carefully in their school uniforms, marched to the beat of the drum.  Immediately after the march past, he hoisted the school flag amidst the sound of clapping of hands and singing of school anthem.

The Chief Guest then spoke a few words, which were performed by a colourful song and drama display by students. It was so charming to see the students smiling, singing, acting and dancing to the beats of the music. Their lively steps, enchanting smile and colourful dresses impressed everyone present there.
The day’s programme concluded with a fine cultural programme lasting about two hours. The cultural programme commenced with a few words by the Headmaster of the school stating the purpose of the programme and inviting everyone to relax and enjoy the performances of the children.
Cultural dances, film songs and dances, action-songs and a short comic play made the entire programme lively and thrilling. The programme came to a close with fancy dress by the junior children; who evoked lots of laughter and from the audience.

Thus, it was the end of the English Day programme of Muthumala Vidyalaya for this year 2013. It was lively, interesting and exciting. Everyone enjoyed it to the full. All departed with a smile on their face and with a big thank you’ on their lips. We are sure everyone went away with sweet and pleasant memories of a day, well planned and enjoyed.
