Well Done , Girls. First Runner-Up in the Action Song & Public Speaking LMS District English Carnival

SK Klian Pauh emerged as the first runner-up for the Action Song Competition in the Larut Matang & Selama English Carnival held at SK(P)Treacher Methodist on 18 April, 2015. The Year Three pupils were excited and enjoyed presenting in front of the fully packed hall . They had been practising hard for this event. On 9 April, they participated in the Kamunting Zone English Carnival and became the Champ.
13 girls are from Year 3 Teratai and two are from Year 3 Dahlia . The objectives of this activity is to encourage the pupils to learn and improve their English through singing and enjoying it as well as performing a medley of songs by dancing and doing actions. It is through action songs that pupils maintain their love for learning English. Correct pronunciation of words is stressed . Through their performances on stage , pupils get the opportunity to build up their confidence. Through constant practice, pupils learn to improve and overcome their own weaknesses.

This performance aims to send a strong message to all to be aware of the environment,to love, preserve and protect it. Kids speak out for the sake of saving our planet Earth for the future.

Special thanks to Mr Travis who had helped me to edit the music. The other teachers who had discussed with me on various aspects are Madam Annaletchumie and Puan Aida, Puan Fatimah ( choreography ) and Puan Norziah Jusoh for helping me train the vocal. These pupils practised during their lessons and after school hours. I had to stay back to be in-charge but it was worth it as the pupils were progressing gradually. Special thanks to Puan Rohani Ghazali who had helped to make those big orange flowers and added small flowers on the belts. I am grateful too to my sister-in-law who had helped me to sew the blue cloth meant to be the 'ocean' ,belts and poncos. Thanks a lot to Puan Aida from preschool who had helped to apply make-up on the participants. My sincere thanks too to our headmistress, Hjh Rokiah for being with us to give her encouragement. The video recording was done by Cik Noorhaslina and I appreciate it. A few teachers and parents had turned up to watch the performance and give moral support and all these had contributed to the success of this performance. Although it might not be a star performance,it was a surely fruitful and memorable one for the pupils who will treasure every beautiful moment of being on stage. Luckily, the costumes from the musical theatre last year came into handy.

Congratulations to Nuvasheenee who is the first runner-up of the LMS District English Carnival Public Speaking Competition. Nuva is good role-model for other pupils as she has been participating in competitions since small. She has courage and good discipline.

Our other two participants are Delashini and Hazwani who participated in the Poetry Recitation Contest but they were not lucky to win the top prizes. We hope they are not disappointed but will try their best in future competitions.

SK Klian Pauh will be participating in Choral Speaking next year. This school had won at the national level before and hope we can bring back the glory together.
