The school venue was decorated with different colours and displayed different seasons. The parents of the students were invited for the event. The judges for the event also recited the poems along with the students.

Students of Class 4 performed short skits for the event on environmental issues and seasons.

Students were trained for the skits by Amit, who has an expertise in acting.

The recitation was a part of the school’s initiative to organise co-curricular activities for students for their all-round development.

The students were judged on the basis of their recitation skills, expressions, body language, eye contact with the audience, actions, tempo and pronunciation.
