The pupils below the age of 4 years showcased their talent by reciting wonderful poems on various topics including the environment and patriotism.

The occasion dubbed ‘Show and Tell Competition’ saw all pupils in pre-nursery, nursery, and Classes I to III taking part in the competition with great enthusiasm.

Parents and the audience who attended the 3-day event were seen beaming with satisfaction over the talents displayed by the young children as they were seen firmly glued to their seats and applauding the pupils as they took their turns respectively to present either a poem or talk about the environment or science.

Some of the young lads did experiments in osmosis and photosynthesis.

Another parent, Mr. Kumar Chenthil observed that it will enable children to learn new things they have no idea of; which is educative.

Principal, DPS International Ghana, Mr. David Raj laid emphasis on organising such events regularly in order to boost the confidence of the pupils and empower them to overcome stage-fright during public speaking.

According to him, “The activities are part and parcel of our education system and as such are required to be organised in order to increase the knowledge and competitive spirit of the kids, particularly in the present competitive world.”

“We are training them to face the current competitive world by exposing them to competition at early age.”
