Fanta Centrafest 99′
The Rotract Club of Pube Central organised the Fanta Centrafest 99, at the Alpabachat Bhavan. This two day inter-school fest was mainly for students from classes eight, nine and ten. 18 schools participated, and Rotary President Manjula Vishwanathan was the chief guest. It was followed by a Fanta March past with the NDA band. Amongst the many events, there was a computer exhibition – `Beyond 2000′ where the students depicted changes taking place in the next century. `Citybeat Jam’ was another event where a student spoke extempore for a minute, `Reynolds Brain Scan’ was a quiz and `Fanta Mad Ads’ was a competition wherein a school was given a product and made to come up with an advertisement.
The topic for the `Fanta Street Play’ was `Kargil’, and the most awaited event was `A Dinshaw and Company Western Talentia’ – a song and dance routine, which had the maximum participation.
The winners were St Vincents High School who stood first; Vikhe Patil Memorial high School stood second and The Army Public School which stood third.
