First Field Trip

Our first field trip this year was at the Ranga Shankara theatre. We watched a play called "The Ungrateful Man". The whole PYP came with us. The play was about a Brahmin who went into the forest to search for some gold. He searched desperately but found none at all. Then one day he found three animals and one human inside a well. He helped the three animals out. Each animal promised that whenever the Bramin needed them, they would help. They also told him not to let the man inside the well out because he was evil and would never help him. The Brahmin did not heed their advice and helped the man out. The monkey helped the Brahmin by giving him food. The tiger gave the Brahmin a gold necklace . The man rescued by the Brahmin from the well was a gold cutter. The Brahmin went to the gold cutter and asked if the gold cutter would buy the necklace. The gold cutter recognized that the necklace was one that he had made for a prince who had died mysteriously on a hunting trip. The gold cutter also knew that the prince had died of a snake bite. However, he had the Brahmin put in prison for killing the prince. In the end, the evil gold cutter's motive was discovered and he was banished from the town.
