Year 7 Step Up Personal Experience

From my perspective year 7 step up wasn't really a step up to me it felt like we were just doing different activities. the activities I did were stacking cups, playing a game where you had to think of a song that has a word or number specifically, and you can't do one someone has already done, another was finding out the murder of someone named Mr grim, as well as figuring out 40 puzzles which were worth 20 points, so 800 points you were able to obtain for completing them all, we also did some art with pencils and perm-markers and colouring pencils and drew something and wrote a word in it and every line had to touch the drawing and the word was about leadership and we watched a movie as well as had shared lunch and that was pretty much it.

Ideas about Year 7/8 programmes

Task description: For our 3rd blog post of the day we made a google draw, slides or docs and did what we wanted to Keep, Stop or add to Year 7 Step up or Year 8 Leadership camp.
