On Sunday, 18th April, 2010, the Association for the Teaching of English in Malawi (ATEM) conducted its annual drama festival (South West Education Division) at the Zingwangwa Secondary School. The participating schools, namely Zingwangwa (the hosts), Chichiri Day and Bangwe Day, respectively. Although there were just a few schools, excitement was everywhere for the audience as well as performers.
This was festival was spiced by the material sponsorship in form of fictional books and scholarship to the Best Actor/Actress, as well as Supporting Best Actor/Actress that Helen O'Grady International Drama Academy awarded as prizes.
It was exciting to see many school officials and students gathering at the Helen O'Grady information desk that was set up at one corner of the hall to give out the much needed information about the Academy's work to develop confidence and verbal communication skills to as many young people of Malawi, as possible.
Hi Felix - congratulations on the excellent work you are carrying out with the Academy.
