The Annual Inter-House Dance Competition took place on 27th September, 2024, at the Sishya School Auditorium. The air was rife with excitement and the spirit of competition, with the numerous participants of the four houses, Sutlej, Godavari, Narmada and Cauvery, having practiced and toiled for days on end, in preparation for the event. The event aimed to promote friendly competition, teamwork and creativity among students, as well as the joy of dance.
The dances were bifurcated into two broad categories, namely: the Indian dances and the Western dances. Both categories were given a specific theme, which all houses had to follow. Each dance had 3 to 4 songs and lasted 5 minutes.
The theme for the Indian category was “Indian Festivals”, and various students from the four houses gracefully danced to traditional Indian and Bollywood music. The theme for the Western category was “Retro”, and students danced to songs from between the 1970s and the 1990s.
The judge for the Indian event was Mrs. Jigyasa Giri, an established Kathak dancer, and the judge for the Western event was Mr. Vinu John, a pioneer of the Afro-Latin dance scene in India. The judges evaluated the performances based on criteria such as technique, creativity, synchronization, and overall presentation.
In conclusion, the Inter-House Dance Competition was a resounding success, highlighting the talent and creativity of students while promoting unity and oneness. The energy and enthusiasm of both the participants and the audience made it a memorable event for all those involved.
