The morning of 6^th April was special for all SRMPS students. The day was bright and every face was happier than usual. Yes, it was a day out for all. Under the children film festival organized by CMS, all the students and some faculty members went to watch a French movie. The movie was scheduled for 9:30 am.

                        Thoroughly excited students reached East End Mall (and some at Fun Republic by 9:30am). The French movie was about a poacher who pretended to be a ghost and scared the country people. However three brave and adventurous children dared to solve the mystery. Their best friend Halasaz was terrified of that mysterious person and that’s why those children pledged to unwrap the mystery behind.

                        There was another small movie produced by CMS, Lucknow, on neighbours. The theme was “love thy neighbour”. Through a very simple and real life situation it demonstrated the significance of good behavior and positive attitude.

                        The story revolves around Jenny, sweet little girl and her friendship with Simran, her neighbour. Simran’s mother was indifferent towards Jenny’s parents in the beginning but Jenny’s parents’ unconditional good behavior changed Simran’s parents.

                        Students enjoyed both the movies and by 11:30 am the program wound up. Throughout the day there was a special smile on every face.

The day started with excitement and enthusiasm. We were all feeling very enthusiastic at the thought of going to the Scorpio Club and watching a Hollywood movie. Early morning in the school campus, everyone was lined up near the mess. Then everyone was divided into groups and the senior boys and girls of class XII were made in charges and they got their own individual groups of which they had to take care. After sometime, we all boarded the bus and all of us went to the mall. We had to go to watch a Hollywood movie in Wave Cinemas. On reaching Wave, everyone grew impatient as they wanted to see the film as soon as possible. The movie we watched was, “Night and Day” and the movie starred Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz. The movie was an action thriller and was pretty good. Everyone enjoyed watching it. After watching the movie, every one again split into groups and went back to their respective buses. Then we proceeded to “The Scorpio Club where everyone wanted to go relax and enjoy. Everyone was very excited at the thought of reaching the club.

The enthusiasm escalated as we neared the club. And after a journey of about half an hour we reached our destination. The excitement level was high at the thought of having a rain dance.

All of us went inside the club with respective group in charges. An announcement was made by Sushant Sir that the girls may move to the rain dance floor. All the girls had a gala time and everyone was called out in groups according to their classes and their enjoyment reached its peak. The senior boys were not ready to leave the dance floor. After this dance program was over everyone went to take lunch. After having lunch we all explored the place. The garden was full of little kids on the swings. Everyone loitered about and had a nice time.

While returning back from the club everyone had a common thought in mind which was to stay back at the club to enjoy more. Over all, the trip was a refreshing and was a way of relaxing ourselves from the busy school schedule. We will all look forward to more such trips.
