Induction day one
On the first induction day of College we did several things...
After a small amount of socializing, we did a small game to help us meet each other a small amount more. Excuse me for the quality, but this is the sheet we, or specifically I got. We had to find people that fit the criteria on the left and fill their names on the right, allowing us to learn a little bit about each while learning names. I in particular was telling people that i could use chopsticks as that wasn't something many others could do.
Then we moved onto some form filling work and then had break, but after that we did a 'treasure hunt' in which we grouped up into 7 groups of 3 and one group of 2, all with at least one person who did level 2 the year before, and then we went around the school looking for the answers to several questions, such as the price of items in different shops, the number of chairs in the reception, and the name of the principle. it was designed to be a tour but less boring than a tour. My group included Hanna and someone i cant remember the name of, i'm so sorry Dude McFace, i'm terrible with names. We got back second, but the first people missed a question, so we ended up winning the prize of some Ben and Jerry's ice cream which we picked up at the end of the day.
Once that was done we moved onto lunch, and then when we got back we were split off into several different groups of 4, all of which had a person who did level 2 prior to this. we where grouped with Lewis the returner and 2 more guys i cant remember the names of!! I'm sorry, ill get there eventually!! We were tasked with creating a short 1 minuet film that includes or is connected to an object we were given. We were given a hip flask and we all did some story boarding and mind-mapping we had eventually decided on a kind of satirical take on drinking and driving by using my bicycle in place of a car. After finalizing the main ideas we went out to scout out some good locations, eventually deciding on a stretch of pavement next to the nursery. Once that was all done and we had settled on a location we wrapped up for the day and finished.
I personally enjoyed the induction day, as i felt i was more able to make friends and acquaintances throughout the day. ti gave a good introduction to the staff and regular faces id be seeing and to the course as a whole! Props to the whole media team for making the first day, along with the following days, feel exceedingly welcoming.
