Entrance Ceremony Surprise: Moving Surprise Ideas (21–30)
band performance

When you think of band performances, you might picture school festivals, but they’re also perfect for a surprise at the entrance ceremony.
If there’s a light music club or circle, you can ask them, or you could recruit volunteers within the school.
It’s sure to become an unforgettable memory for the new students.
Koi Dance across the entire venue

A surprise song-and-dance performance by current students.
They won’t just perform on stage—students will also dance near the seats where the new students are sitting.
Since the entertainment uses the entire venue, not just the stage, the whole space becomes one.
It’s a surprising act where new students can watch the dances up close.
A surprise for the entrance ceremony. Touching surprise ideas (31–40)
Dance and musical performance by current students

At this high school in Kagoshima Prefecture, students from the Arts and Culture course performed a dance to the wind ensemble’s music as a welcome surprise at the entrance ceremony.
The cool performance by the upperclassmen surely filled the new students with motivation for their new school life.
A high-level performance put together solely by members of the school—so inspiring.
(Note: This video is not from the entrance ceremony.)
Cheer squad performance

The school’s cheering squad sends out a rousing message to the new students.
Their booming chants, crisp movements, and perfectly coordinated performance are absolutely captivating.
It’s a surprise event that lets you feel the underlying strength of the student body and the school itself.
A famous singer at the entrance ceremony!

When I enrolled in a high school in Fukushima Prefecture, the school song, composed by Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi, was unveiled for the first time at the entrance ceremony, and as a surprise, Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi himself appeared and performed it live.
Being able to hear a famous singer perform live at an entrance ceremony sounds like a once-in-a-lifetime memory.
It seems it would be difficult to get someone like that to come unless you have quite a strong connection with the school, though.
