MYP 1 -5 go to Ecomotion!
Students write about their day...
I liked this day because it was different than the others because we did something outside, it was really fun. We went rock climbing, and we did archery, we even catapulted potatoes. The weather was not that great it rained every now and then, but for the rest the day was fun, even the bus ride was epic. The classes were varied from MYP-5, we (MYP) had a group called the saschas and we created a cool flag to go with it. ( it was a cubic person) My personal favorites of the activities were either potato launching or archery because I was one of the only people to hit the target in archery, and who doesn’t love shooting potatoes from a giant catapult.

On the 7th of September 2011 MYP 1,2,3,4 and 5 went to Ecomotion in Kolham by bus. When we arrived at the place first we had to make a class flag which had our group name on it We did a lot of things. We went climbing on a climbing wall and we did a game called “strategy” which was fun because there were two teams one blue team and one red team and you had all kind of cards and you had to get the cards of the other team by working together as a group. It was a nice introduction day. Valerie (MYP 3)
Introduction day 7th September 2011 MYP 1-5 went to Eco Motion in Kolham by bus. There were medieval decorations and a castle-like building. First, a guide explained to us what we were going to do, and then every MYP class made a flag and a team name. Later we did some fun activities:
- Card game “Strategy”, where we had BLUE and RED team and we had to attack opponent;
- Climbing a castle wall- it was kind of hard, we were supporting each other;
- Archery- we had to shoot arrows in a target;
- Catapult- we had to shoot potatoes on a distance.
I liked it, because it was entertaining and fun. Alexey (MYP3)
MYP1-5 go to Ecomotion!
On the 7th of September MYP1-5 went to Ecomotion in Kolham. It all started in the morning when an introduction speech was given by Mr.Weston and the classes were sent to their official home room to talk to their mentor. Afterwards everyone stepped into the coach and left for Kolham. Over there we were able to do a variety of activities: Rock Climbing, Catapulting, Strategy and Archery! Most of these activities were focused on making the classes work together in smaller groups, making the students help each other in many ways. Overall the experience was very fun and even though the weather wasn’t too great, it was a good introduction day! Ruben (MYP4)
