Tiverton Super Mario Karts Tournament
With limited access to physical competitions in 2021, Tiverton staff wanted to find a way to create some fun competition during our scheduled inter-school competition time. With this in mind we have revived a lockdown tradition, Super Mario Kart Thursday competitions are back during scheduled ACC Competition time.

The lead up to last week’s session involved enthusiastic banter beforehand on Teams about who was joining in. Games are played using a private shared group code and students chat live in Teams. Teachers and students are both vying to be the fastest dodgem driver whilst Toadettes and Mini-Marios drift around set courses slinging banana skins and mushrooms at each other to gain advantage.

Some play on the Switch, some play on their phones. The fun chatter and students assisting each other when the app crashes is fun to hear. Screenshots of results are taken and we will run the finals series when we hear that lockdown will be ending. We are, needless to say, looking forward to the finals!
