Freedom Fest 2013

If I had to describe the Freedom Fest of Freedom International School in one word...it would be AWESOME!!

The hard work put in by the children, teachers, helpers, drivers & the Principal, was all seen there. Perfect Show put up. The theme this time was Countries and they covered India, Saudi arabia, Italy, Mexico, Greece, Spain.

The whole playground was utilised perfectly..right side country stalls which displayed everything about the countries and selling specialities of each country, left side had some parents putting up their stalls. The center of the ground was this huge stage with stage lights, disco lights, laser lights, cool sound systems...like we get to see in proper open stage shows.
We were to have Chief minister Siddharamaiah as the chief guest...but he missed...nevertheless the show put up was classy.

Every country got a chance to come up on stage, do a small presentation using audio visuals, small video snippets. Famous Dance forms, movies & songs were performed by kids with the country costumes.

Ahana was part of the Saudi arabia team and had to present on the stage. When not on stage she was at her stall explaining the charts put up. They had date paan filled with dry fruits for sale. Quilled Ear rings made by kids, Book marks with Saudi theme, Arabic mehendi artist & Arabian night theme(for clicking pictures) at the stall. The other stalls had some hand painted bags, scarfs, Indian mehendi, Hand painted flutes, plates & mugs. Basically a lot of art work done by the kids & teachers all put up for sale..and definitely worth the money we paid.

Another thing I missed out mentioning...the Flash mob. Blended with the festive feel that was put up. With the 2013 hits being played, all the kids who were not performing on the stage were here in the flash mob dancing in full enthusiasm. And what more...we had the Principal of the school Mrs.Jayanti Prabhakar also dancing n running :-)
The whole show put up...put me in an awe...hats off to the kids, teachers, organizing team & the Principal.
