Christmas Celebration at Inventure Academy

“For it is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas, when its mighty Founder was a child himself”.
Dickens, A Christmas Carol.
The Christmas celebrations at Inventure, this year surpassed all boundaries of imagination by celebrating the children, their successes and ability to cope.
“Our program to end the year invites you to feel like Dickens did" as light as a feather, as happy as an angel, as merry as a school-boy…. as giddy as a drunken man. A merry Christmas to every-body! A happy New Year to the entire world! Hallo here! Whoop! Hallo!"………said the invite and it was just that!! And much more!!
The students exceeded the expectation of everyone, the variety program which included singing, dancing, the play and lets not forget the show stealer the first graders outstanding salsa number.
The little inputs from “Santa” (Pushkal) and the “Grinch” (Anthony) throughout the program was an innovative idea and kept the audience glued to their seats. It was wonderful to see so many students getting an opportunity to showcase their talents. There were wide range of music and dance like classic Christmas songs, break dancing and salsa dancing etc on display.
The students of the primary school gave us a short talk about Christmas and its significance which was very amusing as they lisped the great saga with great expression and involvement. They spoke about Christ and his life. The play by the third graders showed us that it was not necessary to have Christmas with snow and how many people all around the world celebrate it without the snow . The foot tapping performance of the Kindergartners in the form of the Hawaiian dance and song let us spellbound.
The amazing performance of the Dance pod to the song," too late to apologize" and "boom boom pow" was also thoroughly enjoyed by the audience. The play the Drama pod enacted had a powerful message. It showed how the budding actors feel when the main actors treat them badly. Respect and dignity of every individual is important. .

All good things need to come to an end. The students of the senior school left the audience dance to their tune by their fantastic band.
Christmas productions Ha!! What a way to bid good bye to 2009 and welcome 2010.
