Fantastic day at 1st Drive. The day was split into 3 parts: driving, car maintenance + reaction tests, + an informative talk on safety behind the wheel with some really fun activities involving beer goggles 😂 The students were fantastic! Well done Senan for best reaction time 🥇

Things were getting competitive this week in our Chinese class with Ms. Williams. It was a battle of nerve to gain the title of elite chopsticks holder, which ended in a draw. Swipe to see our new King and Queen of chopsticks 🥢👑
