The old times of bed time stories were visited by the children as they experienced a mystic world of stories on Friday. A special story telling session was organised at Eastern Public School.
The event marked the closure of their Reading Week. The event was held for the Primary Years Programme (PYP).
EPS in collaboration with Stories and Beyond invited the city kids to the magical world of stories wherein the story teller Ayushi narrated children stories to them. The daylong event was held on Friday and more that 50 kids were a part of the story telling session.
Interestingly, during the formal story telling session the excitement could be clearly seen among kids. Rudra narrated the stories of Indian folk and culture which amazed the kids totally.
Ayushi held an interactive session wherein he sung poems to the kids and also asked them to join in with him. It was an enthralling experience for the kids as they did not only explored the world of stories, but also were a part of it.
The session was also open for the teachers and even they enjoyed it a lot. Interestingly, it was not only a fun filled session for kids, it was an entirely mesmerizing event for the organizers as well.
Talking about the session, coordinator of PYP Humera Riyaz told The Pioneer, “We organised this event with a motive to instill virtues, make the kids aware of their culture and roots. Also we organised Reading Week so that students should inculcate the habit of reading in them.” Besides, the event was also organised to enhance verbal proficiency and improve listening skills and to sharpen their memory and broaden their horizon.
