STUDENT COUNCIL ACTIVITIES
Last week, TIPS students took part in a fun day held by the Student Council, which took place in the building. Activities included a Super Smash Brothers tournament called “TIPS Smash Down”, where The Wildcats team won (Ryota, Junwon, and Travis).
The second event which took place was a movie day where students watched a movie called Tom & Jerry. Snacks and drinks were on sale, and according to the feedback of students, the day was very eventful. “All the contestants displayed sportsmanship and it strengthened our mutual interests in gaming,” said Travis, the captain of the winning team.
On Valentine’s day, Choco grams were also bought, sold, and delivered by the student council. “It was a nice experience. Student Council did an exponential job of providing an organized system of delivering the choco grams,” said Mr. JP.
