Montech Fest ’09

“All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better” says Ralph Waldo Emerson. Every great innovation is but an experiment. Montech Fest ’09, the school exhibition was formally inaugurated by Rev. Fr. Susai Sebastian, the principal of Loyola B. Ed. College, Chennai. Through the exhibition, views and ideas of children were given shape.

The topics given to the classes were: Making musical instruments out of waste material, Balance Experiments, Earthquake measuring devices, Construction of a tunnel or a bridge, Windmill or Steam Engine, Lever or Pendulum experiments, Submarine or a Telescope, Make a working model of a Hydraulic Machine, Prototype Car or Recycling Waste Material, and Construction of a Rocket or Robot or Conservation of Energy, from Std. I to IX and XI respectively.

The exhibition made learning fascinating that would otherwise seem uninteresting and mundane. It helped students to come up with innovative ideas that took the form of exhibits.

 
   
Montalent Fest ’09 & Children’s Day Celebrations  
A really great talent finds its happiness in execution, but motivation will almost always beat mere talent. The Montalent Fest ’09 – An Inter-house Cultural Festival at Montfort always proves to be an occasion to motivate children to exploit their talents to the utmost. This year’s Montalent Fest was also celebrated in the same way.

The competitions were conducted for children in their four houses, at the junior and senior levels. The juniors had three competitions viz. Choral Recitation, Group Singing and Group Dance, while the seniors had four competitions viz. Literary Display, Group Singing – Indian Round, Group and Solo Singing – Western Round, and Group Dance.

The Inter-house cultural competitions were a great success. Children’s perseverance led them to success giving them a taste of fulfillment in life.
