TRANSCRIPT
• To make the study of history interesting for
the students.
•To help the students appreciate their past.
•To compose an original piece to highlight
the ‘Voices of the Street’ and the memories
it evokes.
•Twenty students across classes IX to XI conducted an in
depth research on the topic ‘Voices of the Street.’
•They participated in a range of activities both inside and
outside the school to gain an insight into the different
street sounds that they wake up to.
•One common element was the sometimes annoying and
other times amusing cries and calls of street vendors.
•They interacted with our teachers and grandparents
who regaled them with their childhood memories of
the cries and calls of street vendors.
•Interesting anecdotes were shared with the students
that revealed glimpses from the lives of these
nameless and faceless people.
•Finally, they penned down lyrics for a song which was
set to tune .
