Online Talent Show

After an unusual school year, on April 27, grade 4-6 students finally had the opportunity to experience a familiar event: the talent show. Despite it being online, there was still a lot of details to cover, from auditions to weekly rehearsals, but knowing that it would bring other people joy was definitely worth it. It is the event of the year that all students and teachers look forward to, where the artists and creators of tomorrow are born. The end result was 10 participants with a wide range of talents. The final group consisted of three piano players, four dancers, two singers, and the one and only magician.

From fun magic tricks to playing the piano, each participant was unique in expressing his/her talent. It is well known that dancing is one of the most effective ways to convey one’s sentiments by creating the choreography of one’s dreams. Each dance was diverse and varied from hip-hop to contemporary dance, but they all had one thing in common, they left us mesmerized. Others gave voice to their talents through singing, and blew us away with their flawless performances. Our two powerful singers showed extreme potential for the future.

The participants went all in and their excitement could be felt through the screen. After several months of rehearsal, their hard work definitely paid off. They showed us that creativity never stops, and that we all have an artist deep within us. Personally, I was caught off-guard by the amount of talent in these young artists and was extremely proud of them for sharing their gift with others. While watching them perform, I felt a certain type of thrill and bliss for the passion they had for what they were doing. I also felt inspired to go on and find my own flair, because there is nothing better than finding your own voice in this world!
