Early Years Rhymes Showcase

Pre Nursery
Four months into the academic year, the children of Pre-Nursery were all geared up and ready for their first stage performance. They presented a variety of rhymes in their classrooms for the audience – their mummies and daddies. The children practiced a lot, all the rehearsals paid off and culminated into a wonderful showcase. They all sang beautifully and did the actions associated with the songs. The happiest moment for the parents and teachers was the delight on the faces of the children to sing for their parents. It was commendable to see such little children handle their emotions and deal with the fear of facing an audience.

It was great to see beautiful smiles and amazing tunes twinkling in Nursery on Thursday. Our children proudly opened their doors to parents and sang rhymes and songs from different cultures, on various numerals and on their favorite characters like Santa and Bingo. The children were confident and sang songs like  ‘He’s got a red red hat’, ‘if all the raindrops’, Christmas carols, and hindi rhymes with actions. It was a pleasure to see our parents sing along to boost their morale. The children were confident and independent. It was great to see them being happy helpers to their peer group. Last but not the least they were thoroughly delighted and performed like ‘Rockstars’.

Music has been the heart of any kindergarten learning. As the great philosopher Plato rightly put it, “Music gives soul to the universe,
wings to the mind, flight to imagination and life to everything”.
On the 4th Dec. this year, our little kindergarteners put together a musical extravaganza for their parents to showcase their learning through songs. The songs were carefully chosen by the children keeping in mind every aspect of their learning. They sang songs related to their units of inquiry, to learning the phonic sounds, to Math songs and even some peppy Hindi rhymes.
This showcase gave our kindergarteners a wonderful opportunity to not only share their learning, but also helped in building their confidence in presenting before an audience and working together as a team.

The thunderous applause from the parents said it all… Another feather in the cap for our little ones!
