AMMU, May 17: The students of Jodhamal Public School organized street plays as a collaborative activity with the British Council.
The street plays were staged in Gole Market, Monika Stores, Pahalwan Sweets, Jammu University, Gandhi Nagar Last Morh and Police Auditorium near Gulshan Ground and at many other places over the last one month.
The play was based on the topic ‘Destiny’ and depicted that hard work is the key to success and one should not depend on destiny only.
In a very impressive manner, this Nukkad Natak conveyed the importance of hard work in one’s life and also showcased the vicious circle of Babas and Tantriks and the T V shows which forecast the day for the viewers and how one gets into the clutches of these Babas.
Each child was full of confidence and this month long celebration culminated at the Police Auditorium in the presence of District Commissioner, Jammu, Ajeet Kumar Sahu as the chief guest on the occasion of the Red Cross Founders Day celebration.
This activity was the part of British Council’s Commonwealth Programme in collaboration with BBC.
The ensembles comprised of 15 students from classes VIIth to IXth.
The street plays were directed by Priyanka Singh of JMPS.
The participating students were Ananya Sharma, Manasvini Oswal, Anushka Singh, Aakash Pandita, Medhavi Bhatti, Saharsh Mahajan, Ayush Mahajan, Shrija, Kshitij Sethi, Gunjan Singh, Ravtej Singh, Harsimar Kour, Milind Pandita, Jasmine Kour and Sanath Chouhan.
School Principal, Trilok Singh Bist lauded the efforts put in by the students and the teacher-incharge and ISA Coordinator Bhawna Madaan.
