The short break passed quickly and soon Tachibana-sensei called the remaining participants back to order.
Those who were eliminated were turned into spectators, who could also cast votes on which of the remaining six classes would receive additional funding.
Apparently, while three classes could be picked to get it, it wasn’t restricted to one in each year level. Two classes from the same year could be chosen and one year level would get nothing.
The criteria remained to be creativity and viability of its execution on the day of the Cultural Festival. It should be balanced to prevent a disastrous occurrence like last year when the whole 1st floor became flooded when the inflatable pool broke from one of the classes.
Soon, after a short refresher from Tachibana-sensei, the groups from each year level were brought forward to present their ideas in turn.
