Summary of the first period

In the first period I studied physics, chemistry, English and Finnish. Because I am a senior I can onky have 4 courses because I've done most of the obligatory courses and now I'm mainly studying the subjects that I'm going to do the matriculation examinations in. 

The autumn examinations are often at the beginning of September which means that the first perion is still ongoing.

I did the matriculation examinations in English and health education, now I'm waiting to find out my final results. I'll do a separate post about the matriculation examinations so if you're interested you can read it or then post a question in the comments.

After the autumn matriculation examinations the seniors have a special day called "100 aamua" which is when seniors have 100 days of school left they come to school wearing their PJs. I think this is a fun tradition in Finnish upper secondary schools.

Introductory day #2

Thos year we decided not to only have a day for the first year students when they can get to know each other in their own class but to introduce the whole grade with each other. Unlike introductory day this part 2 was only an afternoon when we went outside and played a few games limbo,3D,Big Fat Pony etc. 

The afternoon went really well, everybody had fun and everbody enjoyed themselves (not only the first graders but also tutors and homeroom teachers). 

I think this kind of thing should become a tradition, because then you don't only get to know your own class but also the entire year. Due to this we can keep developing Jylla's unique spirit that has been apart of the school since 1923.

To finish off I'll put some pictures of the afternoon. You can see more pictures on Instagram @jylla_tapahtumat
