The literary club meeting was held on 25th July. The meeting began with the club’s president encouraging the student to write short stories and article so that they could be published and it would help in developing the students writing skills. Then two sets of words games were played after that. The junior school had a word sleuth game with 55 words and the high school students played a game called “commonyms”. This activity has the students so engrossed that they didn’t want to stop when the time was up.

Then the main activity of the day began. The activity was called “Once upon a time –today”, where students were asked to represent their favorite literary characters along with their modern counterpart.
