Splash Time At Swimming Pool - 5th June.

INDOOR SPORTS


"Water is the driving force of all nature".
Leonardo da Vinci



Age does't matter, as we see water we feel like to dive in it even if you don't know how to swim. Water Sports was one attraction today at the pool side for the young champs. They had great time splashing in the water. 
As the children get bored of daily teaching routine, it was a big surprise for them as they actually had recreation time in their swimming class. 

DANCE

"There are shortcuts to happiness, and dancing is one of them".

DRAMA


The children were given a situation of  "Jungle" and they were asked to act like one animal each, so there were peacocks, tigers, alligators, elephants and Lion the king, and they made noises for the same.
The next theme was given "The Beach" and the young actors became dolphins, fishes, sharks, swimmers, fisherman........ they had fun time acting something apart from what they are.




Design & Technology


Students developed their ability to cut sections of pine using a tenon and coping saw. The next process involved students using sand paper to finish the edges at 90 degrees. The majority of the time students measured and marked out finger joints to create a square box. Students started to cuts the joints, testing their level of accuracy, tomorrow they will continue this process until they are ready to file.




MUSIC

Group I has learnt a song – ‘Sun is shining on my head’, they continued to practice percussion instruments and exploring parts of Guitar.



Group II has learnt song ‘My Rhythm’ on Drums and they continued to practice Guitar chords.

VISUAL ARTS

"Painting is easy when you don't know how, but very difficult when you do".


Students learnt how to make paper from paper pulp . They tore the news papers into small pieces   and make paper pulp.  Everybody could complete two works each.



    "Be drawn to the visual arts for it can expand your imagination".Barbara Januszkiewicz
