On Tuesday, we welcomed over 230 new grade 9s to ESA through the Moving On Up Program (see the photographs below). The program started at 9 am. Students were greeted by some ESA staff and students. They were registered into colour groups and had a tour of the school followed by team building activities. The students then moved into their arts major groups. They met their major teachers, received their timetables and agenda booklets. Major teachers discussed the grade 9 arts program with them. Students then had pizza lunch, followed by a mock day one where the school bell was rung and students had to find their classrooms. The day ended with a spectacular and energy-filled performance by Splash. A great day was had by all!
