Attraction Ideas for School Festivals That Only High Schoolers Can Pull Off?

10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

The school festival is a major event in high school life.

I’m sure many students are eager to say, “We want to put on fun attractions and entertain everyone!”

Amid this excitement, one thing that’s been drawing attention in recent years is hosting attractions.

More and more schools are handcrafting amusement park–style attractions like roller coasters and spinning teacups.

In this article, we’ll introduce a range of high-quality attraction ideas that, on top of those, are the kind of challenges only high schoolers can take on.

Be sure to create something wonderful while keeping safety in mind.

A must-see for Disney fans! Here’s an idea for a coffee-cup attraction.

How about adapting Baymax’s hugely popular Disney Park ride for your school festival? Turn off the lights in the classroom and create an atmosphere using a lighted mirror ball and stage lighting.

You could also have students sing along to the background music for a unique twist.

It’s sure to be a hit! If you want to make your school festival an unforgettable memory, definitely give it a try.

That beloved character adored worldwide appears in the classroom! Here are ideas for a Super Mario-themed room.

The Super Mario series is an action game within the Mario franchise released by Nintendo.

How about transforming your usual study classroom into a Super Mario room? With pop and cute color combinations, plus familiar in-game elements like warp pipes and question blocks made from cardboard, it would make for some very photo-worthy setups!

survival game

I tried airsoft for the first time and it was insanely fun lol

survival game

Known by its abbreviation “sabage,” survival games are activities where players shoot at each other using airsoft guns.

They’re one of the trending activities, with game fields operating in various locations.

If you’re going to run a survival game at a school festival, it’s a good idea to make it more accessible for first-timers—for example, by using water guns instead of airsoft guns to lower the barrier to entry.

Create obstacles with desks, plywood, and cardboard, and turn a classroom into a game field!

Find the Real Wally

Find the Real Wally

As a game that can involve the entire school, how about a real-life “Where’s Wally?” (Where’s Waldo)? “Where’s Wally?” is a hugely popular children’s picture book where you look for Wally, who wears a red-and-white striped outfit, in a crowded scene.

The idea is to adapt this for the bustling environment of a school festival, where participants search for people dressed as Wally.

You could offer prizes to those who find Wally, or have people take photos with Wally and post them on social media.

With the right touches, this could become a big hit.
