Cultural Fest

Annual Cultural Fest became a customary entertainment of Orchids which offers opportunities to every class to showcase their talents. Each class chooses the best way of closing a session and beginning the summer vacation through a dance, song or skit. The skits by classes VI and IXB emphasized the importance of education and charity and that of IX A provided light humour through witty students and their teacher. Class VII presented a few jokes in English, Hindi and Telugu. Classes I- V had delightful dances to offer. Girls of VII and X delighted the audience with traditional dances of Dandiya and folk. Girls of IX A and VIII sang English songs contributing Western music to the Fest. The marvelous performance of the boys of X needs a special mention. Their feats, beats, moves and steps held the attention of the spectators.

Principal, Mrs G. Sujatha congratulated all the classes on their good performance and wished them a happy vacation. Excitement, cheer and an eagerness to enjoy the vacation marked the eventful day. 

RENDEZVOUS WITH A FRIEND

Orchids – The International School was a ‘Rendezvous for Friends’ on Sunday 20/4/14. Invited by Orchidians, their friends of other schools arrived at Orchids by 9:30am to participate in a Rendezvous with a Friend’ – The Best Buddy Contest which included activities of Sports, Arts and Language skills. Together with their friends they participated in all the events and answered ‘How well you know your friend’, a questionnaire which decided the winners of the contest.

A session for parents  on “Parent-a successful friendship coach” was conducted by Mrs.G.Sujatha, Principal. After the contest, prizes were given to the winners of all the activities for all the categories. The contest was well attended and appreciated and it would remain a major successful event before the vacation.

In this context, a Calligraphic competition was held for the students of Classes VI to X on   19- 4-2014. They were provided with sufficient time so that they could plan and execute beautiful scripts.
