Chinmaya Vidyalaya is like any other school. They love to enrich the knowledge among the students.
But they stand to be different by enhancing the talents by compelling the students to take part in many cultural activities.
Every year, a cultural competition is held among the three Chinmaya Vidyalaya branch schools in Chennai. It is called ‘Chinmayam’.
There are many writing competitions, dance competitions, singing competitions, quizzes, ad zaps, cooking without fire among many others.
Every year it is held in a different school, this year it was held at Chinmaya Vidyalaya –
Virgumbakkam. Students from all the three schools in Chennai city are taken to the host school and after the event Chinmayam is declared open, the competition starts.
Some events are onstage and the others are off-stage and some win and some lose, but it’s all a matter of hard work and practice the kids put in.
The students seem filled with enthusiasm and energy on the stage and when their events were over, they joined their classmates in cheering for their friends. The motivation that the students receive help them perform well in their events and it was hard for the judges to declare the winner.
Cultural Competitions help the students to open up and reveal their talents. They help in opening up the student’s mind to healthy competitions, make them tough and strong and teach them that winning or losing doesn’t matter, say the organisers.
It gives them courage and team spirit and it is a good way for children to open up to the world. So when you get a chance, do take part in many cultural activities, you
would make your school proud and it is also a lot of fun!
