7th Grade Bonding Trip to Parnitha

We are would like to inform you that a “bonding” trip has been scheduled for all students in grade 7.

This overnight bonding trip will take place on Friday September 30th and Saturday October 1st. The students will be spending the night at the Climber’s Shelter of Parnitha.  This excursion will focus on team building games and activities, as this year marks a “big step” for all 7th graders who are entering Middle school.

Our goal is to assist the students, new and returning, make new friends and develop a cooperative team spirit in the class from the beginning of the year.  The chaperones will actively participate in the bonding activities, thus reinforcing group cohesion and enhancing camaraderie amongst the students.

Please find attached the schedule of the trip.
 
We encourage all the seventh grade class to participate in this trip and we hope it will be a great experience for all of us.
