Volleyball Spikes and Hockey Strikes
Today was an absolute blast, packed with exciting activities, delicious food, and plenty of opportunities to get to know each other better. Here’s a recap of our fantastic day!
We started the day with a hearty and energizing breakfast. The spread included fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, tasty bagels, and a variety of yogurts. There were also plenty of options for juice to help everyone wake up and get ready for the day's activities. Sitting together, we chatted and went over the plans for the day ahead, fueling up with delicious food and great company.
Next, we engaged in a high-energy round of Get to Know You Bingo. Each square on the bingo card had a fun fact or a quirky question, like “Find someone who can play guitar” or “Who has traveled to three or more countries?” It was a great way to break the ice and discover interesting tidbits about each other. We even learned that someone can ride a unicycle! By the end of the game, everyone was laughing and chatting like old friends.
After all that mingling, we worked up quite an appetite. Lunch was a delicious stir fry and fruit for dessert. We gathered around the tables, enjoying each other's company. It was the perfect way to refuel for the activities ahead.
In the early afternoon, it was time to get a bit serious with English oral exams. Each student had the chance to showcase their language skills through short conversations and engaging dialogues.
Post-exam, we headed to the volleyball court for a friendly yet competitive game. Teams were formed, and the match began. There were some impressive serves, hilarious fumbles, and plenty of cheering from the sidelines. Whether you were a volleyball pro or a newbie, everyone had a great time diving for the ball and celebrating each point scored.
After volleyball, it was time to unwind and enjoy a delicious Chinese food feast. We had a mouthwatering spread that included favorites like sweet and sour chicken, beef and broccoli, fried rice, and vegetable spring rolls. Everyone gathered around the tables, eagerly filling their plates and savoring the rich flavors. It was the perfect way to fuel up for hockey and enjoy each other's company after a busy day.
To wrap up our incredible day, everyone joined in for a fun road hockey match. We grabbed our sticks and hit the pavement, enjoying the fast-paced action. The game was filled with laughter, friendly competition, and plenty of cheering from the sidelines. Even those who had never played before got into the spirit and gave it their all. The match ended in a close finish, and we all had a fantastic time bonding over the shared excitement.
