A main attraction of festival is games, including one most of MYP students played during the first part of the moon festival celebration. We carried ping pong balls, nuts and other objects with spoons, and chopsticks. This is repeated with 2 pairs of carriers and whatever pair switches balls/ nuts first wins. I feel this game was mildly competi- tive yet brought everyone together. As with any festival, it must be remembered when you wake up the next day, so the MYP decided to write down our memories, on a leaf with a traditional Chinese brush.

Many things have happened since school started but one of the most memorable events

for many was this year’s moon festival.

A main attraction of festival is games, including one most of MYP students played during the first part of the moon festival celebration. We carried ping pong balls, nuts and other objects with spoons, and chopsticks. This is repeated with 2 pairs of carriers and whatever pair switches balls/nuts first wins. I feel this game was mildly competi-tive yet brought everyone together.

As with any festival, it must be remembered when you wake up the next day, so the MYP decided to write down our memories, on a leaf with a traditional Chinese brush. To reinforce them, we laminated them. This way, our memories could double as bookmarks and make perfect souvenirs or gifts for family.

The festival itself was memorable but I feel there could have been more mooncakes.
