Recap of 2nd March + plan for Fri 9 March 2012 + April small show date!

Howdy!

The results of the auditions were announced yesterday at class. The childrens' roles are listed in a separate post. Nearer the end-of-year show we will have some extra rehearsals - but that is in the third term. The end-of-year will be in Nov or Dec depending on when we are nearing readiness.

Recap:

On Friday 2nd March the children did Surya Namaskars, Oms, and Singing with Shaan, Carpentry with Ravi Katari, snack time was chocolate-banana muffins and milk/juice...and we ended with dancing with Manikandan & Prarthana. 

We discussed solar energy. how it works, and other forms of green energy, and I am inviting some people from this field to come in and speak to the children and show them a short presentation at some point soon.

We had invited an artist from Delhi to come in to demonstrate but he cancelled at the last minute unfortunately.

The end-of-term poetry-song-dance show entitled 'Wild Wild West' is likely to be on  Saturday April 14th at 4.30pm. Venue tbc. Do block it in your diaries!

Read on for the plan this week:

Take care,
