The annual concert, Singithi Rangum, of the primary section of Visakha Vidyalaya, Colombo was held at the school’s Jeremias Dias hall on a grand scale, recently. The chief guest was renowned artiste Rashmi Sangeetha.
The show started with the colourful rendition of Saraswathi Pooja and moved on to traditional and western dancing, fusion and ballet. Singithi Rangum, which started in 2011, is a concept of Principal Sandamali Aviruppola, to provide an opportunity for primary section students to showcase their dancing talents. It consisted of three shows - one for the school and two for the public.
The shows were compered by the primary students themselves in all three languages. Each class from Grades 1 to 5 had their own performances, which totalled 28 performances for each show, providing the opportunity for all primary students to participate. Here are some highlights of the event.
