“Stress Buster Arrow” — Beating Negative Emotions Through Booth Activities

Activity description

This activity used games to help students relax and unwind, while fostering a positive and proactive culture. Before the activity, the committee members collected negative phrases participants had heard, which were then used as targets in the game booths. Students used toy bows and arrows to aim at and "hit" these negative phrases, symbolizing the active breaking of negative thoughts and stressful events. This gave participants a meaningful opportunity to express and release their emotions.

Beside the game booth, beautifully designed cards with encouraging messages were displayed for students to pick. While drawing a card, participants also left their blessings for others on a message board, spreading care and positivity.

Students are writing encouraging messages, hoping that those who pick up the encouragement cards will receive a boost of positive energy.
