"The important thing in life is not the victory but the contest, the essential thing is not to have won but to have fought well."
Very true indeed! A fighting spirit to excel yet never to disdain the values of a true sporting spirit is what we strive to instill in young minds. Training the oratory skills of the little children is quite challenging, yet the outcome leaves everyone entranced. What is most amazing os to silently watch these little elocutionists trying to pass on the quintessential part of their skill to their erring team mates, thus proving their mettle. After all, their delivery should be nothing short of perfection! This year' the competition was held on the 18th of September. It was heart-warming to see the solemn Flynn Hall bask in delight as the greenery, the elocution banner, our smart office-bearers, and of course, the prohibited area of the judges leave no stone unturned to reveal joy, surprise and excitement. Interesting, exciting, hilarious, and some mysterious poems transported our little audience into a world of wonder. The silence accompanied by an effusively thunderous applause enunciated it all. The unimpeachable pronunciation, diction and matter gave our judges viz. Miss P. Mackenzie, Mrs. J. Chaudhary and Mrs. L. Massey the most trying time ever. The mark were being tabulated amidst pounding hearts and knocking knees. Now, to ease the tension that silently reverberated through the entire hall, a thoughtful group of children entertaining the audience with lively songs of the yesteryears, like 'I've come from Alabama', 'The Grand Old Duke of York', 'Little Brown Jug', 'You Are My Sunshine' and many others. At the end, the winners were given prizes and the curtain was drawn amidst cheers and claps. RESULTS: ENGLISH ELOCUTION
