The long-distance traveller

[Customize!] The iconic school moment

Which event from your school days does everyone remember? (Organizers: come up with a specific event and phrase the question, e.g. "What year did we go on the trip to X?", with the answer.)

[Customize!] The school party song

Which song was always played at the school party (and everyone still knows by heart)? (Organizers: fill in the song title under accepted answers.)

[Customize!] The strictest teacher

What was the name of the strictest teacher from your class? (Organizers: fill in the correct name under accepted answers, and optionally a second spelling.)

Best friend back then

Take a photo with the person who was your best friend at school. Or, if they are not here, with whoever comes closest.

Class photo pose

Recreate the classic class photo pose with the whole group: back row standing, middle row on chairs, front row crouching. Try to keep a straight face until after the photo.

Deskmate

Find the person you sat next to the longest in class. Take a photo together, exactly the way you used to sit at your desk.

Most changed

Take a photo with the person who, in your view, looks the most different since school. Not as an insult, as a compliment to the transformation.

Old inside joke

Find the person who still tells the same inside joke you all had back then. Take a photo and write the joke down (or at least the explanation).

Out of touch

Find someone you have had no contact with since school. Catch up for five minutes and then take a photo. You might just rekindle a friendship.

Own kids

Take a photo with someone who is now a parent themselves. If they have photos of the kids on their phone, even better.

Recreate a school moment

Come up with a typical moment from your school days together (a joke, an argument, a photo moment) and act it out for one shared photo.

Reunion final photo

Closing challenge: a big group photo with everyone who is here today. How many names can you still recite from memory? Write it down with the photo.

The forgotten name

Ask someone whose name you genuinely forgot what they are called again. Take a photo together and admit you had lost it. Everyone does it, nobody will hold it against you.

The iconic spot

Go to (or recreate) the spot that was iconic for your class: the corner of the schoolyard, the classroom, the spot by the main entrance. Take a group photo there.

The yearbook

Open the old yearbook (or an old class photo on your phone) to your page. Take a then-and-now photo by holding your face up next to it.

Unexpected career

Find the person whose current job you never could have predicted back then. Take a photo together and have them explain how it came about.

Unexpected match

Find someone you were never really close with during school, but with whom you have a good conversation now. Take a photo together.
