M5 Team Building Day

Middle Five Team Building Day

Middle Five bonding with new classmates.

A

t the beginning of the Autumn term the current Middle 5 came back to new forms. This was the first time we had been in a new class since joining Habs, in Lower 4, three years ago!

Fortunately, we were given a day to get to know our classmates, since it was possible that some of us may never had worked alongside, or been in a club, with each other.

Being in a new class is a challenge, but Team Building Day was an enjoyable and beneficial opportunity to build new relationships through a wide range of activities. We took part in drama and eventplanning as well as: Jenga, ‘Chat, Chill and Chomp’ and dance.

My class started with Jenga, a game most of us hadn’t played in a long time! It required us to put trust in our teammates; we worked together to get the highest number of moves.

Next, we participated in ‘Chat, Chill and Chomp’, a discussion over cookies on topics ranging from the problem with fast fashion, to pineapple on pizza! This led to open debate and listening to alternative viewpoints.

Following that, it was the dance studio to learn the choreography for a dance to You Can’t Stop the Beat from Hairspray. This was a competition between the whole year group, and we were judged on which team was the most in-sync. It was great fun to end the day dancing together.
