Visualising our performance...8th April

The students of The 9 Planet Savers had wanted to create a dramatic enactment to showcase their understanding of their inquiry on Water. They decided to take the help of Mr. Renjith, the Head of the Department, Drama, to translate their thoughts into a drama. After taking appointment to meet him, they finally interacted with Mr. Renjith on Friday in the drama room. They shared their ideas and Mr. Renjith immediately set them going with props, asking them to depict a village scene involving water. What initially seemed like jigsaw pieces of the plot, as the students explored cloth and cane baskets as props, soon naturally emerged into a poetic sequence of the tragedy of water. The children are excited with the play and are looking forward to getting back with him next week, to fine tune their performance.
