Throughout the evening, students enjoyed a variety of engaging activities:
The evening concluded with personal hygiene and bedtime, followed by morning routines and a light breakfast the next day.
Through this experience, the school aims to create opportunities for students to build positive friendships across Grades 5–8 while developing independence, self-care habits, and the ability to adapt to a shared environment beyond home.
