Musical August at Mark Twain

Monday, 6 August 2012

Some months ago, Miss Virginia told Mister Darío, " That´s the place for "The Cavern" !!!" And, in no time, Mr. Darío coordinated all the help it needed to become what it is today:

the MARK TWAIN MUSIC ROOM!

After working in the clean up during the Winter Holidays, these are Darío´s first photos so you can appreciate how it came to be:

One of the donations:

Quite a mess at first but so much enthusiasm :-)

The music equipment is installed

Mr. Darío thrilled with the drums he assembled:

Ladies and gentlemen: many instruments plus carefully chosen elements

to create the right atmosphere are ready for YOU!!!

Secondary school musicians jamming:

Mr. Darío and Mr. Gustavo welcome

any donation of instruments or elements

to make " THE CAVERN"

the most creative place for the students :-)

Do you know why it´s called THE CAVERN?

.................................................

The LOGO Contest:

You are all invited to design a LOGO for The Cavern:

hand in your proposal in A4 paper and

a prestigious jury will decide who the winner

is at the end of MUSICAL AUGUST 2012:

do take part !!!

An "aerial acrobat on fabric" dances in our school !

What do you know about dancing with fabric?
Is this a sport?
How many students at Mark Twain do you think practise it?

Getting ready: Miss Marian, Miss Virginia, Luis, José and his crew decorating and

challenging heights to set up everything for the big show.

Our guest Magalí Valdéz and our own acrobat Miss Lili are ready to start the exhibiton: here she is checking that the rope is well placed.

" Children , see how Magalí stretches very well before beginning: this is very important !"

Right before the show, all the girls that do aerial acobatics were summoned to the front:

The show began with a striking fall:

We cannot believe our eyes!

The acrobats receive their certificates while everybody sings
the "Mark Twain Thank You Song"

Children, remember you can click on COMMENTS and express your opinion :-)
