This visual extravaganza took us all on a journey across the rivers giving us glimpses of the colourful lives of the people down the ages. At its core, it was tale of the six rivers: the Amazon, the Ganga, the Missouri, the Murray, the Nile and the Thames which represent the six continents and their distinct cultural identities. These rivers also represent the six houses of our school.

This effort by our students was their way of reaching out to the world-their oyster! The play was directed by Ms.Sonia Khan and conceptualized and visualized by Mrs Amita Mishra
