Primary School. It had been so long, before we actually got to see the innocent faces of our juniors. All dressed so cutely, and ready to work for something that motivates them. And as we went to talk to them, their bright faces made our day. So becoming a little more enthusiastic than usual, started explaining we were there, about our project, what we believe in, and last but not the least how they could contribute!
As we got really good responses from all of them, we asked them to bring waste material the very next day (that being today), to make something creative out of it. We called a best out of waste competition. This was organised in 4 sections of Class 5. The children could use anything to everything. The children had to work in groups of 4 to create a poster out of waste materials. They could make a scenery or illustrate a beautiful quote. The children were very excited about all this, and today almost everyone brought in materials to participate in the competition. We got an overwhelming amount of entries, along with kids who awaited the results. There was one group of boys who felt so truly for our cause, that they even brought a poem from the net which they recited!
The poster too were amazing, we never expected such a big turnout, as the final moments for judging came, most of us went into dilemma as to whom shall we give the 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize. After alot of judging and asking for suggestions we finally showed the prize winning posters.
Hoof! What a day it was! But we do hope that we get a similiar turnout from the rest of the competitions we are planning to hold, in the middle school.
Here are some snapshots of todays competition:
