Senior Class Makes Their Last Year of High School Count

On a Saturday afternoon, 7 November, a group of seniors gathered in Penang Bowl. It was a rather unusual thing because, normally, it is hard to see that many seniors together. But this time, they were gathered to have their second class event, obviously being bowling.
First, seniors played one full game of bowling with the regular set of rules. They were divided into six teams with four to five players on each team. Each team was assigned to a lane where they bowled casually. But to shakes some fun into their experience, seniors decided to play with some variations. The first variation was blind bowling. Seniors had to cover their eyes and bowl. The second variation was bowling with the non-dominant hand. The third variation was bowling on one leg; this provided a new challenge to students, since they had to balance themselves while bowling a heavy ball. The last variation was to bowl as hard as they could, and the bowling balls did indeed travel along the bowling lanes faster than ever before.
Though the night started out like other normal bowling outings, seniors ended up having much fun with the twists. Many seniors positively commented on their experience. "It was interesting to play withe multiple variations on a fairly familiar game," said Isaac Chan (12). 
Other students commented on the social benefits and how they were able to become closer to their peers. "It was a great way to bond with classmates who don't normally get to talk," said Hannah Graves (12). 
As the last year of high school flies by, it was an excellent opportunity to bond and socialize with others, making their last year more memorable and exciting.
