Inter- House Board Competition

The excitement grew and grew. All the participants of each house gathered around. In the inter- house board making competition, all the houses had to use waste material and in the time slot of forty five minutes they had to create a motivating board. The Air house used foil, cardboard, old cloth, and even molten crayons for their board which revolved around the concept of “freedom”. The Earth house made a board on “music” using old CDs, broken earphones, and newspaper. The Water house and the Fire house both made boards on the topic “angle vs. devil”. The former used a variety of materials such as music CDs, cotton, newspaper and plastic sheets to complete their board. They also had a caption: “I am sin but I am not the devil; I am good but I am not the angel.” Last but not the least, the Fire house used newspapers, cloth and many others to make their board, which was complete with the caption: “There is no good and there is no evil. There is only power and those too weak to use it. Which side are you on?” I was one of the participants and I was really delighted to see the work of each team. Giving a thought to the work I think everyone did a brilliant job but there is always room for improvement. So I believe that the next time we all will try to improve to the best that we can. The captains of each house were not allowed to help their team members. All the teams were able to complete their board and they all did a tremendous job. Everyone was eagerly waiting for the results after the competition. The results were given to the house captains after three day.  The Fire house secured the first position, the Water house secured the second, the Air house came third, and the Earth house came fourth.
