Bibliophile Week Sparks Creativity: High Schoolers Shine as Literary Party Planners

On the second day of Bibliophile Week, the corridors of creativity and literature buzzed with excitement as students from Grades 9 to 12 stepped into the shoes of party planners for an exhilarating Inter-House competition. This event was not just a display of their planning prowess but also a testament to their literary understanding and creative application.

Each house was assigned a different book or literary genre to inspire their party themes, ranging from classic literature to modern fantasies, which they used to craft unique party experiences. The students were responsible for every aspect of their themed parties, including the décor, snacks, costumes, and games, bringing their assigned texts to life in an engaging and festive atmosphere.

Godavari House set the bar high with an enchanting “Alice in Wonderland” themed Mad Hatter fiesta. They transformed their space with whimsical decorations such as playing card rugs and served up an array of themed delights like cakes and tea-sandwiches, perfectly capturing the spirit of Lewis Carroll’s fantastical world.

Narmada House took attendees back in time to the Shakespearean era with their cleverly titled “To party or not to party” event. Their attention to detail shone through in a Shakespeare-inspired alliterative menu featuring dishes such as Prospero’s Pie, Ambitious Caesar’s Salad, and Puck’s Pickled Peppers, which not only delighted the palate but also enriched the thematic experience.

Krishna House invited guests to step into the magical world of Harry Potter, complete with personalized Hogwarts invitations. Their treats included gummy worms straight from the shelves of Honeydukes, enchanting both Potterheads and newcomers alike with a magical feast worthy of a spot in the Great Hall.

Ganga House rounded out the competition with a thrilling “Murder on the Orient Express” theme. This Agatha Christie-inspired whodunit party was a comedic and interactive affair that engaged participants in a mystery, proving that a good book can indeed translate into a great party theme.

The standout of the day was Nimisha Singh from Grade 9, whose portrayal of the legendary mystery writer Agatha Christie was both sassy and spot-on. Her performance not only captured Christie’s famed wit but also highlighted the student’s deep engagement with the character, bringing the literary figure to life with flair and finesse.

The palpable enthusiasm and the silent awe of the audience underscored the success of the event, showcasing the students’ abilities to merge creativity with academic insights. As we look forward to what the Junior School students have planned for next week’s Inter-House Merchandise Design, one thing is clear: Bibliophile Week continues to be a highlight of the academic year, fostering a deep appreciation for literature in innovative and exciting ways.

Stay tuned as we continue to celebrate the power of books and the creativity of our students during this special week dedicated to all things literary!
