Ok, now the Ice is broken :) :)
It was a super hit and the response was just amazing!!
Before I could start I would like to thank Abhishek, Vaishnavi and Jagan for guiding us. We were 5 volunteers met at DAV Public School at Velachery at 9 and all of us were very excited, it was the first activity for Myself, Dhanu, Varun, Dhru but we made it a success!
Mrs. Rama Devi had perfectly arranged for everything in time and 2 teachers volunteered to help us. When we entered the auditorium the students were already seated waiting for us! We decided each one of us will be taking a particular responsibility, these were the following:- (Dhanashri (Scorer), Dhruv (Timer), Varun (Photographer), Vivek (Host), Myself (Questioner))
To start with, Vivek gave a perfect crisp opening speech which really made the whole crowd more interested. Then we started with the activity where each team had to put up a play based on the topic that they picked. Following where the topics we had chosen and thanks to Dhanashri for coming up with some brilliant one-liners.
1) King of Garbage takes the whole world.
2) My life is genetically modified.
3) Trees of today, fossils of tomorrow.
4) Animals are to be loved, not to be eaten.
All the children were so charged up preparing for the play and each one of them showed so much energy when they put up the show. I am uploading all the pics in Picasa, will be sending soon. You can see by yourself. We had lot of fun time filled with laughter and also it was a thought provoking time to all of us.
Dhruv, Dhanu, Varun being fresh freshers showed so much initiative and interest. Varun who claims himself to be amateur photographer has taken some very good pics, unfortunately he is not in any pic :(.. next time we will not forget to take your pic Varun... After our event was over, students just surrounded our hero, Vivek and begin asking lots of questions.
At the end of the day I really felt there is so much more to do. If its DAV, creating awareness is of a less job I think, but tapping their energy towards right direction is important, for example there was this boy who is doing a project on using reflection of lights using mirror that can be used in streets to avoid using more Post lamps! Its an energy saving project!
We need to plan out more creative activity in DAV school, this is what we learnt from the Ice-breaker, they are aware of most of the stuff but as a team we need to come up with more brilliant ideas that is activity oriented.
