A mime presented by the middle school students on the theme of Water Conservation was yet another way
of emphasizing the need to save water. Captivating music and sound effects coupled with fantastic

performance by the young artists garnered applause from the audience. The Street Play with the tagline
‘ Bachao Bachao , Paani Bachao’ made it evident that soon water crisis would be a part of everbody’s life if

we didn’t turn the tap off when we should.

An Inter School Mime Competition was also organized in the school premises to spread the message beyond

the walls of Somerville School, Greater Noida. The occasion was graced by Mr. Thomas T. Roy
Superintendent & Secretary/Treasurer Lott Carey Baptist Mission in India Mr. Abraham Mathew, Manager,

Somerville School , Greater Noida and Dr. Mary Thomas, Principal, Somerville School, Greater Noida and
our esteemed guest Mr. Dinesh Rana, Principal, Kidsville School, Greater Noida.

The programme began with a hymn sung by the Western Music Choir which was followed by the lighting of
the lamp by the dignitaries. The schools of Greater Noida and Noida participated in huge numbers

showcasing the urgent need to conserve water in their own unique way. The participants captured the
audience’s attention as they performed to reinforce the idea of being ‘water warriors’.
The campaign ended with the Prize Distribution Ceremony for Inter School Mime competition. The first

position was bagged by Holy Public School, Greater Noida while DPS, Greater Noida and Somerville
School, Greater Noida were adjudged the first and second runners up respectively. Our Principal ma’am

congratulated the participants and motivated the students to be water conscious. She also underscored the
ways of being water savers at school and in their homes in their everyday activities. The students were
encouraged to spread the word in their family and neighborhood too. At the end of the campaign it would

not be an exaggeration to say that the staff and students at Somerville School, Greater Noida have dedicated
themselves to the cause of conserving water.
