Our English Day was held on June 14th, 2024, it was a vibrant celebration of the English language, literature, and culture. Students rotated among different classrooms throughout the day, fostering teamwork, communication skills, and a deeper understanding of diverse perspectives. This dynamic environment encouraged students to engage actively with one another, enhancing their collaboration and language proficiency.

The English Day began with an exhilarating opening ceremony, featuring a musical presentation that set the tone for the day. The ceremony also included the presentation of awards recognizing the outstanding achievements of the best students. These awards celebrated excellence in English language proficiency, literary analysis, and creative expression. Teachers and students alike delivered inspiring speeches, sharing their passion for English literature and the importance of language in connecting cultures and fostering understanding. This engaging start motivated everyone and created an atmosphere of excitement and anticipation for the day's activities.


One of the highlights was the Spelling Bee contest, which featured four categories: 4th and 5th grades, 6th and 7th grades, 8th and 9th grades, and 10th and 11th grades. Students from each category competed fiercely, showcasing their spelling prowess and boosting their vocabulary and confidence in a supportive and competitive atmosphere.
The day was enriched with a variety of activities, including Mystery Expeditions, Classic Adventures, Poetic Destinations, Creative Writing Workshops, Speaking Clubs, Author Spotlights, Genre Exploration, and Adaptations and Transmedia. Each activity was led by enthusiastic expositors who guided the students through engaging and interactive experiences. They explored the timeless plays of Shakespeare, the nautical journey of "Moby Dick," the gothic horror of "Frankenstein," the detective adventures of Sherlock Holmes, and many more.
To make the day even more exciting, expositors incorporated various games into the activities. For example, in the Mystery Expeditions, students participated in a scavenger hunt to uncover clues about famous literary works. During the Classic Adventures, they played a "Literary Escape Room" game, where they had to solve puzzles related to the stories they were studying.
Through these activities, students not only enhanced their literary knowledge but also developed their creativity, critical thinking, and appreciation for the rich tapestry of English literature. The event was a resounding success, leaving students inspired and more connected to the English language and its vast cultural heritage.
