School Christmas Party Part 1
It’s Christmas time! Woohoo! That means it’s overly organised, very short and regimented party time!
The first thing we did for our Christmas extravaganza was to coat the entire English Language Centre in a fine layer of cheap Christmas decorations. But I like to think we did a good job. We got a Christmas Tree and a Christmas wreath and so forth.
From 1~3pm the place was alive with students. We didn’t get nearly as many people as we did for the Halloween Party, but we did have a decent turnout. Probably around fourty or fifty students turned up. The first game we played involved a large parcel with somewhere near a million layers of wrapping around a tiny present. We all sat in a circle and took turns to roll a dice. Upon rolling a six, the player would run into the centre of the circle and put on goggles, reindeer horns, socks on their hands, a flashing red nose and a scarf, and attempt to open the present before someone else rolled a six. I took a lot of photos during this game, so forgive my lack of commentary.
I don’t have a name for this game so I guess you guys can suggest one for it in the comments or something.
After that it was time for the ripping Christmas Trees challenge. The idea was to put a piece of green paper behind your back and rip it into the shape of a Christmast tree. Needless to say, we had good ones…
…and of course, we had some hilareously bad ones…
However, we felt it wasn’t Christmassy enough to just have the children make Christmas trees out of Christmas. Oh no, we wanted them to become Christmas trees. I’ll talk about that in the second part of this update. As for now, enjoy the fact I’m writing anything at all! Woohoo!
