Ideas for class projects at the school festival: A roundup of popular attractions

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!”

When it comes to the fun of school festivals, class projects that everyone works on together are indispensable! If you put your heart into everything from preparations to running the event on the day with your classmates, it’s sure to become a lifelong memory.

That said, you might struggle with things like “There are so many ideas I want to try that I can’t decide,” or “I don’t know what would really get people excited.” So in this article, we’ll introduce a bunch of recommended ideas for class projects at school festivals! We’ve gathered everything from classic options to some slightly unusual ideas, so please use them as a reference.

Ideas for class projects for the school festival: A roundup of popular attractions (51–60)

Planetarium Cafe

Japan’s first! A full-fledged planetarium opens inside an airport: “Starry Café.”

Planetarium Cafe

If your class is full of star lovers, a planetarium café is a great idea! With blackout curtains and a planetarium machine, it’s actually pretty easy to set up.

How about making the café menu inspired by stars and celestial bodies? For example, star-shaped cookies, crescent-moon ice pops, Milky Way chiffon cake, and drinks where tapioca pearls stand in for stars.

Check out real planetarium cafés for inspiration and give it a try!

darts

Ultra Ultra Silent Dartboard (Prototype) #darts #DIY

darts

Darts is a game where you throw arrows at a target and compete for points.

The closer you get to the center, the higher the score.

It’s simple yet deep, and you’ll want to try again and again.

At a school festival, anyone can join easily if you prepare a handmade board using items like interlocking mats and a safe darts set.

Even just taking a few steps back and taking aim naturally engages your body and creates a sense of tension—that’s part of the appeal.

The moment a dart hits the target, the spectators will clap and get excited too.

If you set rules that offer prizes based on scores, it lowers the barrier to participation.

The sense of accomplishment when you hit the mark and the cheers from friends create a fun atmosphere throughout the classroom.

Vampire Cafe

Vampire Cafe

How about a mysterious, curious vampire-themed café? Whether you go with a haunted-house-style scary vampire or a pop and cute vampire, either motif is likely to make the café a hot topic.

To broaden the image of vampires and their world, it’s also a good idea to take inspiration from works that feature vampires.

For the menu, try offering items that look a little gross, like tomato juice to resemble blood, jelly eyeballs, and red cakes modeled after hearts.

Surprise flash mob

Surprise flash mob

It’s the perfect production to bring a sense of unity and surprise to the school festival.

At first, everyone behaves normally, and when the music suddenly starts, classmates break into dance, leaving the audience thrilled and excited.

Choosing popular songs everyone knows or tracks that match the event’s theme will boost the energy.

By practicing simple choreography in advance and making it easy for anyone to join, you increase the chances of success.

If you sync the timing and involve the entire school, it can become a major event.

It’s a plan that lets you join forces with friends and feel a real sense of togetherness.

Blue and Summer

[School Festival] Class Video “Blue and Summer 3-2 ver.” Watch the full version from the comments ✨Blue and Summer youth Class video Cultural Festival @Mrs. GREEN APPLE
♬ Original track – Ryu – 07ryu_

This is a video project produced as a class video, themed around Mrs.

GREEN APPLE’s hugely popular song “Ao to Natsu.” It depicts students earnestly dedicating themselves to their club activities, resulting in a piece that truly captures the essence of youth.

Even if it’s not about clubs, it would be great to film the preparation time for cultural festivals or school festivals.

Both the time spent making the video and the finished work itself become dazzling memories.

Be sure to preserve those unforgettable moments with your classmates as a work of art.
