Interactive presentations allowed the girls to engage the audience. Ideas such as “fashion around the world” and global geography, as well as a wishing wall for the audience express their dreams were particularly popular. All the girls who participated were rewarded as they enjoyed the activities and also learned about the world around them.

Concordia hosted the “Connect with Me” station, which was all about self-discovery and confidence. SAS Puxi and SMIC troops hosted “Connect with friends” station. They made a huge board game to connect their friends together. Through questionnaires, the girls learned more about each other and strengthen their connection with friends.
