🛠️ Building Skills, One Cup at a Time! 🛠️ Yesterday, our students engaged in fun and challenging activities focused on teamwork and collaboration—essential skills for the workplace! Pictured here, students worked together in teams to build the highest tower of cups without touching the cups directly. This exercise not only tested their creativity and problem-solving but also strengthened their ability to communicate and work effectively with others. Great job to all our students for embracing the challenge and showcasing the power of teamwork! 💪👏
