National School of Drama (NSD), Delhi, organises a Theatre Workshop for 600 school children in summer where students from various schools in Delhi have the privilege of learning drama from NSD artistes.
NSD delivers this workshop in 8 schools with three age groups.
Our Drama Teacher, Binod Mahakur, is among the artistes chosen by NSD to deliver this workshop. This is a 6-week exercise during which Binod is learning the craft of teaching theatre from the best in the land, rubbing shoulders with the best in the land, all this while delivering workshops to the children.
Binod is among the youngest, and the only one from Odisha, chosen for this.
Klorofeel students have the privilege of learning from Binod.
At Klorofeel School, drama is not just an extra curricular subject. Other subject teachers engage with our Drama teacher to bring theatre into our regular lessons. Bringing regular concepts to the students through theatre is not just exciting for the students, it also helps in retention, as concepts are being taught through memorable experiences. Such pedagogy is also in keeping with Klorofeel’s करके देखो philosophy.
The artwork of our Fine Arts Teacher, Mr Subhadip Bhattacharya, has been selected to be displayed in the 62nd National Exhibition of Art 2020-21. The title of his work is Dui Bigha Jami and the medium of work is Clay, embossed on handmade paper.
On Teachers’ Day, students gave the teachers a treat – with a Quiz they had prepared with rigour, commitment and wonderful teamwork, topped with overflowing excitement and Zoom-breaking decibels.
Our Independence Day celebrations began with flag hoisting at Klorofeel School Campus by Mr. Gopal Nethani Rao and Dr. Adarsh Rath.
Social Proximity considerations ensured neither teachers nor students could be present in person. The joy of singing the national anthem was shared from the confines of our homes, watching the fluttering Tricolour on our screens.
