Schools were divided in two groups mainly juniors and Sub-Juniors, i.e. grade One and Two in the sub-juniors category and grade Three and Four in the juniors, total two hundred and eighty three children participated. Watching these children perform with real gusto and vigour, impressive facial expression and apt voices modulation. A truly brilliant performance  with great confidence radiating at each small move and gesture. 
The IEAS school was all decked up with models of various chocolates as the school is all set for their annual day the big event is the Musical “Charlie and the chocolate Factory” where the entire school students would be participating. The premises deco added the glitter and finishing touch for the competition. 

The competition was judged by competent judges Dr. Cathy Daniels, Dr. Martha Tryzna and Mr. David Wostlehome all experienced in the field of education and art. The critical appreciation by the judges highlighted the success of the event and the performance of the students.

The objective of Don Bosco Past Pupils Kuwait unit is to enliven and gear up each child in a large group and simultaneously gain variety of valuable experience you learn from enthusiasm to defeat, from bitterness to joy and at the same time fill the mind of all who have gathered to watch pictures of imagination. We are sure the audience enjoyed, vivacity of the children performing on the stage along with their costumes and performance in front of a large crowd that packed the school (IEAS) premises.
