A showcase of talents: JGEO2 Closing Ceremony

August 10 was a busy day for the students. The JGEO2 culminating activity was held that day. Students had their team talent show. After just a few days of preparation time, the spectators were so proud of the students. It was indeed impressive to witness a magnificent presentation from these young adults.

In addition to the talent show, a sumptuous pizza party was also prepared for the students to celebrate the joyous success of this camp... Afterwards, the day was ended with the JGEO2 closing ceremony.

A Night of Treasure & Fun...JGEO2 Treasure Hunt

JGEO2 Treasure Hunt was very exciting and fun. The students got to enjoy two rounds of activities during the night. First, is the JGEO2 Mission Possible Series, and the second set is the JGEO2 modifield version of Running Man which was named the Walking Man.

During the JGEO2 Mission Possible Series, students had to go through series of stations to complete the missions.

 1. Story Board c/o Prof. Johan & Alessa

‚ 2. Be the One (Numbering) c/o Ye Young

ƒ 3. Shake It Up c/o Keith & Ilene

4. GEO Station c/o Jinu

„ 5. Paint the Picture (Pose game) c/o Colin & Kerwin

…

For the Walking Man, the rules of the game is the same with Running Man. The main mission is to detach other team members’ name tags. The pairs (‘one girl – one boy’ pair game) were tied with paper handcuffs. If the paper handcuffs are torn apart, the pair will be out. So it is important that they hold hands all the time.

The students enjoyed the night...

Congratulations Team USA and Team UK｡◕ ‿ ◕｡
