The day began with an unexpected announcement that regular classes were cancelled, sparking excitement among the students. Instead, they were in for a delightful surprise—a “fun” day filled with community building activities.
In the morning, the students were divided into teams and embarked on a downtown scavenger hunt. Armed with a long list of items each worth varying points, the teams scoured the area, hunting for challenging targets such as “Tudor” Architecture, a local author’s book, and freshly baked bread. The competition was fierce, as everyone aimed to collect the most points and claim victory. In the end Daniel, Wilson, Issac, and Beckett racked up the most points and were rewarded with gift cards to local downtown businesses.
After the thrill of the hunt, the afternoon was reserved for a visit to the Skate Center. Here, students and teachers strapped on skates and glided around the rink to tunes that never seem to go out of style when you’re skating. Those who craved a bit of competition competed in races, while the rest cheered them on. Anna A took the title for the fastest skater overall, and Reece, Tyler, Ronan, and Jonathan were the fastest runners in their sock race categories. Students also tried outmaneuvering their opponents in a game of laser tag, while others who wanted a more relaxed pace took the opportunity to simply chat with friends and even form new friendships.
The day was full of camaraderie and fun, allowing everyone to unwind and enjoy a break from the usual school routine. Kudos to Jonathan, Kasper, and Josh for planning such a wonderful day.
