Indian Student Society Deepavali Event


The ISS (Indian Student Society) team members welcomed the guests in a unique way by making them light up the candles as Deepavali is a festival of lights.
The team of ISS from ERC Institute has recently organized their way of celebrating ‘Deepavali’ also known as ‘Diwali’ (The Festival of Lights) on 17th November 2012 successfully. There was an overwhelming crowd that attended the function which was held at our Institute. Despite the heavy downpour, the function commenced on time by traditional lighting-up by our CEO and the Executive Committee.

INDIAN CLASSICAL DANCE:
Bharathanatyam is the traditional dance for the Indian community. The function commenced with Indian Classical Dance by Ms. S. Subhashini, currently a psychology lecturer with her graceful dance, showing different manifestations of Lord Shiva in her expressions. Her seven-minute performance was spectacular bringing a loud of applause. She also showed up her dancing skills not only in classical dance but also in western and traditional dances too.

MIME:
The highlight of the show was this MIME. It is acting a story through body emotions without any dialogue. Our team of 12 members sent a message to the audience by reiterating using mobile phones wisely. Even though the message was paramount, our boys delivered it in a hilarious way which was enjoyed by everyone.
DRAMA:

The mythical story of Deepavali was re-enacted by our students that depicted the rise of Deepavali. The costumes and accessories of the casts were unique and some of the drama team members were able to unveil their hidden talents by their emotional outpour during the drama.
There was also unconditional support from other private education institutes (PEIs) in their outstanding performance of dance, songs and music.

INTERNATIONAL FUSION DANCE:
One of the main highlights of program was the international fusion dance. The Chinese girls danced in traditional Indian sarees while the Indian boys danced for the Chinese traditional dance. There was an overwhelming support from the audience.
As the ISS has concentrated on not only the Indian students but also opened for all other nationalities to bring out their hidden talents. They also had external participants from other PEI’s such as JCU, NUS, PSB, AEC and MDIS students as performers in our SPARK FEST. We also had special guests and school representatives from Malaysia.
The ISS committee was pleased by the number of people who attended the function which surpassed 110.
The Spark Fest of ERCI Indian Student Society(ISS) was indeed a huge success.
