Hindi Extempore Competition

 

Inter House Hindi Extempore Competition

‘Hindi is our national language. It helps in expressing emotions and thoughts.

It gives the ability to understand and use complex systems of language.'  

Extempore is a speech that is given on the spot without preparation. It is a test of your knowledge about a topic as well as your ability to express yourself in good words in a framed manner within a limited time. 

An Inter House Hindi Extempore Competition was organized for Classes III -IX in the premises of Small Wonder Public School on 28 February 2021.

 

‘Speech is the mirror of the soul; as a man speaks, so he is.’

The event was held to hone the public speaking activities of the students and make them not only good speakers but also alert speakers of Hindi language.

About 65 students participated in the school from different Houses and gave their views on different interesting topics. Each student was given 3 to 5 minutes to present their topics which included the introductory paragraph. All the participants were invited one by one on the stage and they were made to select a slip from the box on which various Topics of the Competition were written. The participants were given 10 minutes to organize their thoughts. Then the competition started and the participants presented their ideas and thoughts. From the Safety of India to the System and Cleanliness of India, they openly expressed their views. The participants also put forth their views on the topics like Protection of the Environment, Use of Social Networking, and Save the Girl Child.
