FESTIVALS: COLLECTIVE HERITAGE



Festivals-Collective Heritage

ISA ACTVITY NO. 3


Interhouse Dance Competition


Festivals have a lot of importance in our lives. To conserve our traditions and values we celebrate festivals and dances.





Different people of different religions , communities and countries have dances as an integral part of festivals, but they all give one message i.e. brotherhood and faith between all the humans. Festivals are the oxygen and life of society. 22nd January, 2020 SMJPS organised an Interhouse Dance Competition as a part of an ISA activity on ‘Festivals – Collective Heritage’. Students of classes V-IX enthusiastically participated in this competition.



                 

The students of five houses presented Dance forms of five different countries.

  • Indira Devi House – Folk dance of Spain
  • Acharya Tulsi House – Folk dance of France
  • Nehru House – Folk dance of India
  • Subhash House – Folk dance of America
  • Shivaji House – Folk dance of Japan
                          


Their performances were judged on the following criteria
ü Their expressions
ü Costume and make up
ü Synchronization
ü Usage of the stage
ü Presentation

The dance competition was adjudged by the three judges:
ü Mrs. Piyali Dutt
ü Mrs. Shailja Sood
ü Mrs. Shaloo Nanda


Acharya Tulsi House was declared the winner of the Interhouse Dance Competition by all the three judges collectively. Nehru house bagged II position; Indira Devi House bagged III position.


               



All the students exhibited amazing dancing skill and presented their dance forms with great aplomb any gaiety.


Their efforts were applauded by ISA coordinators Mr. Amit Kushwaha and Head Mistress Mrs. Geeta Oberoi, the guiding force behind the whole event.
