Hello Steemians, happy weekends. Today I will be sharing an activity in school in the celebration of the United Nations Organization. I had written a blog where all the teachers in history were wearing costumes of a country they were representing during the opening of the UNO month celebration. This time is the highlight, a pageant of selected students who passed the screening to become candidates of the pageant to represent a country in their production number, casual attire and finally the national costume of the country they were representing.
This is our stage with the candidates. Three pairs were selected per year level, during the screening there must be a representative per section, there are 16 sections in Grade 9 where I am one of the advisers and luckily my female student was being selected to compete among all grade levels.
Here's my pretty Jacquilyn, she loves joining a pageant, a very graceful dancer. As an adviser, am happy to have a full support to my student, who knows they really have the potentials that may bring them better careers someday. I always encourage my student to join any competition to fully discover their skills and potentials.
It was semestral break where we had the teachers training when Jacquilyn texted me that she had no attire for the photoshoot requiring them to wear a turtle neck blouse so I chatted close friends to borrow and I brought it to the venue. The next day, she wanted me to help in the making of her country's highlights to be narrated during that national costume walk and also to edit her self-introduction during their production number. She also let me find a make-up artist since she lives in her sister and no parents to support her.
Here are some pictures I took during the pageant which made me went home at 6 P.M. instead of my knock time at 3 P.M. being on the first shift just to see my student. But I was not able to wait until the last walk for their national costume since I needed to cook for dinner for my children.
This last picture shows the pretty chaperon adviser like the beautiful UNO candidate, lol, but a real chaperon if beauty is the criterion.
