(Morning Session)

Mime is an art or a technique of portraying a character, mood, INTER HOUSE MIME
idea, or narration by gestures and bodily movements. An Inter- COMPETITION
House Mime competition on the theme 'Social Issues and
Awareness' was organised on 19 th September 2019 for students
GRADE 9-10
of grade 9 & 10 in the School Main Hall.

The theme was based on social issues like ‘Ageism is the new

racism’ (Grade 9-Emerald House), ‘Acid attack’ (Grade 10-
Emerald House), ‘Bullying’ (Grade 9-Ruby House)‘, ‘Mobile

Abuse’ (Grade 10-Ruby House), ‘Transgender Equality’ (Grade

on lives’ (Grade 10-Sapphire House), ‘Save the girl child and
child labour’ (Grade 9-Topaz House) and ‘Say NO to plastics’
(Grade 10-Topaz House).

Participants depicted all themes with their brilliant gestures

and body movements. The audience was sometimes into
laughter and at the same time getting emotional to see such
sensitive issues being portrayed with such ease and conviction

by the students.
The competition was adjudged under the criteria of innovation,

depiction of the situation, expression, teamwork and overall
effect.
The four teams performed wonderfully well and spellbound the
audience with their performance. Overall it was a great show

as each team tried their level best to leave the impact on the
audience making them aware of the social issues existing in our
society.
