It was with a sense of eager anticipation that the parents of the Junior classes (KG to 3) of St. Edmund’s School came to witness the Junior School Concert held recently. The concert was fittingly themed as ‘A dream is a wish that the heart makes.’ The boys of class KG enthralled the audience with their cowboy songs and a foot tapping dance called ‘The Texas Cowboys’. They looked cute in their outsized cowboy hats. The boys of Class 1 were on next with a lively number called ‘The Little Elvis’.
The stage then came alive with a fashion show ‘Fashion through the Ages’ – the ‘budding’ models of Classes 2 and 3 sashayed down the ramp in tune to the music with confidence, ease and great precision bearing ample testimony to the hard work put in by them.
The play ‘Spiderella’ enacted by the boys of Classes 2 and 3 was a huge success! Cinderella with eight legs (who had to be fitted with eight glass slippers) was a treat to the onlookers. Every boy on stage performed his part well. The two chief guests present on the occasion were F Kharkongor, Special Secretary, Education and S Goyal, Deputy Commissioner, East Khasi Hills District on the 16th and 17th respectively. They expressed their appreciation that all the 600 boys were given a chance to perform on the stage. (Story Contributed)
