Inter –house Skit Comp



Skit is an integral part of a child’s education, and it is on offer in small measure in Darla MSS. Skit or drama would bring children’s self-esteem, confidence and communication skills. 
English literary committees conducted inter-house skit comp. on 28th May 2016. The skit is such a new activity carried out in the school. We conducted only this year after seven or more years. The main objectives of conducting this type of skit are: Students will:
  • Demonstrate knowledge of story elements by constructing an outline of a skit.
  • Develop a story plot with sequential events using plots.
  • Develop listening, speaking, and performing skills by working cooperatively to create and perform a group skit.
  • Recognize conflict and resolution in a story by analyzing each other's skits
  • To work in cooperation and groups to create a good skit.
Our students had chosen compelling and sad stories of parents-children relationship, and the value of friendship. It was interesting one as they had LCD projector to display the scene and pictures. They also used background score music and sound system. Though the sound system was not that good, and shouldn’t expect from the school! After all it wasn’t movie or drama hall. They used whatever they had to the maximum. The stage decoration was creative and appealing one. I personally didn’t not expect our students doing well in skit. They did well. There was ‘The Last Leaf,’ ‘A Mother’s Love,’ ‘One-eyed Mother,’ and other. The photos below show some stills:

Mass Cleaning Campaign


Out of many health activities in the school, mass cleaning campaign is one of the important activities in the school. On 28th April, Darla school conducted mass cleaning campaign. We called off the afternoon class, and students and teachers gathered in the assembly ground. The campaign begun with area distribution from classes IV to V. And the theme of the campaign was made loud and cleared to the students. The theme was, “Clean Darla, Clean Bhutan. Clean Bhutan, Clean Earth.” The students and teachers went to the last point of the area singing the theme and requesting parents to come out and clean. The health club members also had various massages written and pasted on their back and front part of the body.

The mass cleaning campaign covered town and villages of Darla. Many classes of students and teachers went as far as three kilometers from the school to clean and create awareness. We covered Darla bazaar, BPPL, Police gate, RNR, and Darla Lhakhang.

The presence of public in the cleaning campaign was requested in teachers-parents meeting, and for that the health committee also sent letter to bazaar thsogpa, BPPL,and the Darla Gup. Except for a few shopkeepers for a few refreshments, a few people from Bazaar, no public came forward to clean on that day. Our main aim was to create awareness among the public. But we feel that we have created while we went out singing our theme loud. The presence of few public didn’t deter as we have huge numbers of students. Not only did our cleaning well but also have lots of funs. The cleaning campaign was successful one as we collected almost 50 sacks of waste.  When we gather back in the school, a bottle of litchi juice was given to quench thirst from the scorching heat of the day. Below are some photos of the day.
