What did everybody else do when year 9 was in Stockholm?



During the whole week there were different activities - and few lessons:

One day we were on Ranebo.It was two classes there at the same time. First one class stayed and did cooperation exercises. We were going to come over ropes and balance on a log at the same time you changed places. The other class were going to a large look out tower called Amundshatt. When we had finished the exercise and had come back from the walk and we had lunch.

We’ve looked at a movie called Hip Hip Hora. (known as The Ketchup Effect in most English-speaking countries)
Most of puppils have already seen that movie, but they still like it. ! J
The movie is about three girls called Emma,Sofie and Amanda which have begun 7th grade.They are very interested in some boys called Maouse, Jens and Sebbe. During a party, Sofie becomes far too drunk and is unconscious, and Mouse and Jens take humiliating photos of her. Almost the entire school see the photos and everything collapses for Sofie.Sofie loses her friends, and she wants to kill herself. During another party she jumps out of a window. She is taken to hospital, and after she have come back to school, everybody is very kind to her. At the end of the movie, Sebbe says sorry and ask her out for dinner

The second of October year eight had information about high school, as we start when we leave Ninth grade.
Åke (the man who speaks about high school) said that there are many kinds of programs that you can chose what ever you want.
We have around 20 different courses, for example the community program; there you can read history, religion and geography, the Vehicle Engineering Programme; where you learn about cars and stuff, the Child Recreation Programme; where you go if you want to be a nursery-school teacher. We learn a lot during the information. J

The police
A police; Titti came and visited the school, she talked about how it is like to be a cop.
She had all of her outfit carried on her belt, pepper spray, gun, night stick, flashlight, radio, handcuffs, car keys, mobile and ammunition.
She talked about how you can become a police and what you do. What different kinds of police characters you can be. Dog police, horse police, criminal police, patrol police and many other kinds of police.

CPR
One of the activities was learning CPR.
We had a doll called little Ann. Everyone had a doll. The first we did was to give the doll cardiac compression. After that we learned how to give the mouth-to-mouth method.
The dolls ribcage rose up when you were blowing right.
Then we learned how to do when somebody is out of breath. First of all you will thump the person on the back. If it doesn’t work you have to push under the chest.

Films
We saw two films, called “Ondskan” which means “the evilness” and “Brandstegen” or “the fire ladder”
They are two Swedish films.
“Ondskan” is about a boy called Erik. He starts at a new school, with strange rules. The pupils are bringing up each other. And Erik gets into trouble. The film took place in the fifties, in Sweden.
“Brandstegen” is about drugs. It shows how bad it is to take drugs. The film was made by some pupils near Gothenburg, which is Sweden’s second biggest city.

We also learnt about how to handle a fire extinctioner and what to do if someone catches fire. We practised with the local fire brigade!
