Search for a venue.
Start.
Finding a place is where you should start organizing a graduation party for 4th grade in nature. Remember that the place should be selected along with your daily program. It will be easier for you to choose a location once you understand what you will be spending there.
Safety.
Ideally, search among closed locations. If some kind of activity is implied and a wide area will be involved. A closed area will make you feel calmer and safer. Children at this age are very active and love to move quickly. Assess likely movements in advance or conduct additional control.
Site capabilities.
When assessing a location, think about what you will do and how suitable the area is for you. Decide to make an interesting quest or game program; there should be a territory for it so that there is room to expand.
Cost and booking conditions.
A lot depends on what you choose. This could be a recreation center, a small restaurant, or specially equipped areas. Find out under what conditions and how much it will cost to rent for a holiday. What area is included in the rental and what you will need to pay extra for. This is necessary to avoid surprises for yourself on the day of graduation.
Menu
Since the holiday is held outdoors, you will have to abandon complex portioned dishes with decorations. It's better to choose something simpler:
- kebabs: chicken, shrimp, vegetable and even fruit;
- kupaty;
- salads in tartlets;
- canapes;
- all kinds of rolls: red fish, cucumber, ham, pancakes, etc.;
- sandwiches;
- pizza (usually ordered);
- fresh whole fruits, etc.
There should be a little bit of everything; even adult graduates are unlikely to want to overeat, let alone 10 or 11-year-old children. Be sure to include drinks in the menu for an outdoor graduation. As a rule, they stick to juices and mineral water, but sometimes they also stock up on lemonade. The one who will be responsible for the treats should not forget about clean drinking water.
Transport.
Remoteness.
Holding a holiday outside the city is always a format remote from St. Petersburg. You can't get here without a bus. Depending on the distance and time of the holiday itself, booking either hourly or by transfers will suit you. It must be considered individually.
Traffic.
In May and June, dense suburban traffic to nature begins. Summer residents are starting to travel and many people are getting out into nature more often. When calculating the timing, do not forget to take this into account so that there are no surprises during your trip.
Stops.
If the route is long, consider where your group can realistically make stops. You will probably need several of them.
Accompanying people.
In addition to children, adults will also take part in the program. Be sure to take into account several accompanying children's group.
Program.
Active.
The age and mobility of children implies the presence of activities at the holiday. All official and informational formats can be done at an older age.
Entertaining.
Create an interesting game with a beginning and end scenario, several game zones and narrative logic. Don’t make the game zones long and consider quickly switching between them.
Costumed.
Costumes for presenters and animators will help you immerse yourself in the game situation as much as possible and create the right mood for graduates.
Time.
The duration of the game is no more than 2.5-3 hours. For one playing area from 10 to 15 minutes.
Special equipment.
A mandatory basis for an interesting and non-standard game that will create the necessary mood and generate interest.
Prizes for participants.
Participation based on interest will allow you to include not every participant, so receiving a reward based on the results of your physical and mental labor will be a pleasant note. Ideally, reward everyone involved to maintain a positive mood for the rest of the day.
Nutrition.
On one's own.
One of the optimal and economical options that allows you to save your budget and spend it on other things, such as the gaming part. In this case, you book a special location that will allow you to cook barbecue and barbecue (special equipment will be provided). As an option, there is a barbecue service, where he fries your marinated products for company.
Catering.
It will be prepared for you on the spot or delivered, there are different approaches. Just look for the one that suits you best.
In the territory.
Each location has its own conditions, you need to communicate and decide upon the search. It may have its own kitchen, or catering or other ways of providing food. Always find out where and how your food is delivered.
Tasting.
For any format you choose, with the exception of self-cooking, you will have to study reviews and conduct a small tasting of the cuisine that will be at your holiday. In some cases, it is enough to read the reviews, but how truthful and transparent will they be, will you be able to recognize the paid ones, if not, then you better come to the tasting.
Entertainment
Graduation is a celebration, which means everyone should have fun. Therefore, we need to come up with suitable entertainment for schoolchildren. What the scenario will be depends on the number of people gathered, their age and, of course, the weather.
Often they turn to professionals to write a script. Especially when it comes to outdoor graduation for the 11th grade - this is the last school holiday for boys and girls, and therefore, if something goes wrong, there will be no way to correct the mistakes. If the organizers (teachers and parents) decide to come up with entertainment themselves, then they can recommend the following competitions and games:
- "Crocodile". This is an ideal game for a large company divided into two teams (for example, boys and girls). These teams compete with each other in their ability to demonstrate objects eloquently and explain concepts without words.
- "Illustrators". For such a competition you will need 2 easels on which you can draw with markers. 1 player from each team receives a task from the presenter - to depict a particular phrase, catchphrase, name or phraseological unit on an easel. Whichever team guesses what it is faster wins.
- Quiz. The topic can be anything, but it is better to get away from the school curriculum. It will be a very funny game where girls (girls) will answer purely male questions, and boys (boys) - on the contrary.
For an outdoor graduation in the 9th grade, a game is suitable, which the class teacher of the students should carefully consider, because they (at least most of them) will have to study together for another 2 years. The game is that each student writes three words on a sheet of paper that characterize this or that classmate; the sheet is not signed; this is an anonymous “survey.” Then the class teacher reads what was written about each person, and the rest guess who it is about. The benefit of such a game is that the teacher will be able to understand how the team treats this or that student.
At the end of the evening there are dances around the fire, and if the budget allows, the holiday can be completed with fireworks or fireworks.
Photo and video shooting.
Service time.
Agree not for the whole day, but only for partial presence. As an option for games or quests, plus a barbecue. Perhaps only on the moving part. This choice is entirely yours, but using photo and video services all the time is a waste of your budget, so choose the period of maximum emotional peak and record it. Video shooting may also not fit into the budget and photos will suffice.
Portfolio.
Request materials, read reviews and hold a meeting. In addition to the quality of the pictures, it is important how a person communicates and how he will work with the audience. Good emotions in conclusion, no less fundamentally good photographs.
In move.
Working at such events involves shooting in motion, and this is very different from static photography and not everyone is able to cope with it. It would be good if the photographer had similar practice.
