Younger pupils completed a variety of tasks: in the library they put letters into words, in music they practised rhythms and movements, in the sports hall they had a fun relay race with basketballs, in the canteen they threw ping-pong balls, in the office of the primary school’s head teacher they played a movement game called “Crocodile”, and in the head teacher’s office they solved puzzles. For each successfully solved task, the group earned a paper airplane – a symbol that accompanied them throughout the activity. The aim of the event was to introduce the young people to the school better and to welcome them as members of our school family.After completing all the stations, they gathered in the hall where they danced together. The older students demonstrated their dancing skills and encouraged the first classes to join in. The event culminated with all the aeroplanes taking off at once – a sign that the first classes are now officially members of the school family.

A big thank you to Years 10 and 2 for giving unforgettable and brilliant experiences to the younger pupils!
