Killa Making Competition - Std 5 to 9
Material from School:
Material provided by the school:
Bricks
1 jute cloth (पोतं)
Laal maati (red soil)
Water
Allotted space (Only to the registered teams)
Material from Home:
For killa making (compulsory):
Plastic / Steel bowl
Old cloth (for wiping hands)
Old newspapers
What else can you bring? (Optional)
For decoration:
Paint brush (any size) and colours
Rangoli
Cardboard sheet/papers
Statues as desired
Toothpicks, etc.
For planning:
Pictures, maps, layout drawing etc. to help you build a more realistic fort
Dress Code:
Students must wear casual clothes they don't mind getting dirty in! No uniform.
There will be a lot of squatting, so if you are wearing shorts, then wearing cycling shorts along with them is recommended (just like we adults do for the gym or runs).
Please come dressed comfortably and sensibly to enjoy a fun morning playing in the mud!
ID Card:
As always, students MUST wear an ID card. Students will not be allowed to enter the school premises if an ID card is not worn.
If younger siblings are coming, they should wear their ID card too.
Building the Killa / Fort:
Each fort must fit within a 2 ft x 2 ft space. There will be a lot of empty space around for you to move around this square. But the whole finished killa should fit inside the 2 x 2 space.
Parents may assist but should allow children to take the lead. Parents, please don't take over - let it be the "kids'" fort!
Any decoration material is allowed. Teams are responsible for their own supplies. You can place it on before the judging, take pictures etc.
After judging, students may take their decoration material back. Let the forts come alive with the power of history!
